Clash Royale (BIGGG SCUMM)

Are you into all of the hot new trends? Do you like to scum it up and be a big scum? If so Clash Royale is the game for you. For only a small purchase of $0.00 a month, you can play the hottest new app on the market. It has revolutionized the way that the multiplayer system works for handheld devices. You can play with your fellow scums in a clan, for instance a clan that I scum it up in: ROL Family. There are eight arenas that you can play in, each arena associated with a number of trophies. Trophies are won and lost when you win and lose. The main idea is to win games and move up arenas, or move up in trophies.

Well that's all for now folks! Make sure to scum it up on Clash Royale.

Peace out,

Aidan


Above is a picture of some characters in Clash Royale. The only way to be a big scum is to use the prince (far right).

Friday Night Lights

Well today I will be talking about my new favorite television show: Friday Night Lights. It´s about a high school football team that against all odds is able to make
The state championship (and win). The dynamic of the show is basically that this coach comes in a brings all of the boys together. Despite all the the boys individual naratives and issued, they all become one big family. It is quite cool to see how people (fictionally) live in places other than Los Angeles. Texas has a completely different vibe than California and has a very TKAM feel to it. Very much so southern life... Be sure to watch FNL on netflix!

Netflix vs Hulu

Hi everyone!

So this blog is going to be about a VERY controversial topic... The two live-streaming platforms that are in my title are the two (main) ways that people watch television other than cable. Personally, I to this day switch between both platforms. The reason being: certain shows sell their rights to either Hulu or Netlfix. For example, Netflix owns the rights to The Office, House of Cards, Master of None, and more shows. Hulu owns the rights to 11.22.63, SNL, The Bachelor, Broklyn-99, Last Man on Earth, and more. Personally I liked the Netlfix original shows much better than the Hulu original shows until I saw 11.22.63 (a Hulu original series). Hulu also puts shows right onto their platform 12 hours after they're released live on cable. I find that feature VERY cool. Hulu promotes themselves as the only real alternative to live TV due to the aforementioned "live TV feature". Netlfix, however has the "classics", whereas Hulu has alot of newer content.

The final verdict...... Hulu is better!

Comment if you agree, disagree, or just want to say something :)

Voice Over Work!

Hi everyone!

So I know all these acting blogs have been semi-repetative, but bare with me; this one is interesting. So does the show "Hey Arnold" ring a bell? Well if so, you will be happy to know that (as of now) they're remaking that show! I was approached by my manager with something I had never done: a voice over audition. The problem was that I was given the audition at 6:30 PM and my manager needed a recording of me reading the scipt by the end of the night! I was given a script and a two minute audio clip of the previous voice actor talking. I worked from 7:00 PM to 10:00 PM on getting the voice "down" and let me tell you, it was hard work. I finally recorded a take that I liked and I sent it to the manager. The next day, I was approached by a voice-over agent that wanted me to come down the the studio and record my take.... So I will be going to record my lines at that place today after school!

Wish me luck,
Aidan

One Line Audition

So today I had an audition for a pilot of a new TV show called "The Mick". Howver, unlike any other auditions that I've been to, I was only given one singular line. I found it hard to relay to the casting directors that I was "their guy".... I mean, I only had one line!! I was given the following information: I would to be playing a bully that was going to walk up to a smaller kid and say, "Hey Chippy. How your folks liking the clink? They join the Aryan Nation?" That was all the information my agent was able to give to me. So who knows, maybe I'll get it; maybe I won't. It was a cool/challenging experience nonetheless. :)

The Oscars

Hey (again),

So tonight was the oscars! And obviously the elephant in the room is that Leonardo dicaprio won his first Oscar. Personally, I feel he deserved to win it for "Wolf of Wallstreet", but I feel that he was also good in "The Revenant". Brie Larson also won for best actress due to her role in "Room". Brie Larson was phenomanol in that film and I was hoping that the academy would give her the Oscar! I feel that this year was a great year for film and I hope that it will be the same in the years to come. "Spotlight" won best picture, but I can't speak too much in that as I haven't seen the film myself. Well, congratulations to all that won! Good night :)

High school

Hey guys!,

So I'm kind of nervous for high school.... I mean, sure it will be cool  to finally start my road to independence and stuff. But then again in the other hand, it seems like so much work. I meant here is the homework, college prep, extracurricular activities, and a social life. It just seems like so much to balance! I might just be worrying for no reason, but it's scary that in a little bit I'm going to be stepping out of my comfort zone and going to a new school... Anywho, high school isn't for w little while, so I guess I have a little bit more time left before I freak out a worry...
