Hey Billy!
I haven't blogged in a while and thought that I would up-date you on my news. Tony Husar and I got to act together again. A guy in Cody was looking for male actors in their 20's to do a short film and he picked up Tony and I out of the Community Theatre group here. I got the lead part. The film was called "Proud Sins" and was about a WWII Marine with post-traumatic stress syndrome who keeps having flashbacks to his WWII combat. Tony's character got killed pretty quickly though when he got shot in the head and his brains splattered all over my face. I finally got to do some combat-performing and it was pretty fun. The film was entered into the NCHS Film Festival and brought home Best Sound Design, Best Cinematography, Best Picture and Best Actor for Miles Mathews! Western Wyoming College was well represented. Anyway, it was fun and I think that I like film acting! The outfit that produced the film, Cactus Film Productions is expecting a deal to do short western films for the Outdoor Channel. If that comes through Tony and I have been offered jobs with that as well! On other news, I was awarded a Graduate Assistantship for University of Wyoming for the coming year and will be specializing in Pre-1900 American Military and Political History. I am on a short vacation right now in Idaho visiting Justin and Lara, and am trying to get them to go blogging! We'll see! Well, not much else going on. I hope that you and Colleen are well and enjoying the summer as it gets going. Talk to ya' later!
Miles.
