			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today it is time to once again eat a healthy portion of weenies with Sam Anderson, our amazing actor extraordinaire! Now I know what you&#8217;re thinkin- you&#8217;re thinking, &#8220;Dylan&#8230;that sounds kinda peculiar! Why would you be posting about eating weenies with Sam?&#8221; </p>
<p>Well fans and friends, it is a time honored tradition, and this year a lot of the cast and crew will be in one place at one time, so it&#8217;s gonna be a blast! Pictures will come later, I&#8217;m sure, but for now, we&#8217;re gonna let you imagine the greatness that&#8217;ll be flooding just one room- a room full of <a href="http://strikeaposefilms.com/about/cast-and-crew">Sam Anderson, Dylan Hintz, Robert Novich, Robert Ramirez, Ryan Jacob</a>, and a LOT of weenies! </p>
<p><a href="http://strikeaposefilms.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/weenie-thing.jpg" rel="lightbox[1589]"><img src="http://strikeaposefilms.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/weenie-thing-300x225.jpg" alt="" title="weenie thing" width="300" height="225" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1606" /></a></p>
<p>Oh, and we&#8217;ll be doing our yearly viewing of <a href="http://www.strikeaposefilms.com/films/curse-of-bodangofish">Curse of Bodangofish</a>, <a href="http://www.strikeaposefilms.com/films/clarity">Clarity</a>, and possibly even <a href="http://www.strikeaposefilms.com/films/line-of-sight">Line of Sight</a>! Check out these great old classics and hit some comments, or share them on facebook or twitter with all of you friends! </p>
<p>Oh, and for all of you still wondering when the hell Curse of Bodangofish will come to the internet? I was planning on it this summer but we got booked with all the<a href="http://www.strikeaposefilms.com/max-action"> Max Action</a> stuff and whatnot. However! There is still potential for a release by the end of the year! We just need to hear you begging for it! </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>SCENE: Lakeforest Mall, Gaithersburg MD.<br />
</em><br />
A little over three weeks ago I participated in a final round audition for a modeling contest hosted by the<a href="http://www.americanmallmodelsearch.com/"> American Mall Model Search</a>. The <strong>grand prize was a one year contract with </strong><a href="http://www.modelproductions.com/">Model Productions</a>, <strong>a company that&#8217;s been around for over 25 years and has produced loads of successful actors and models.<br />
</strong><br />
<strong>The contest required the completion of three tasks: </strong></p>
<p><strong>A photo shoot</strong><br />

</object></div>
<p>I was nervous as hell, but I knew because of my history with <a href="http://www.strikeaposefilms.com/future-film-makers">Future Film Makers</a>, <a href="http://strikeaposefilms.com/2009/09/19/sorry-there-have-been-no-updates">Six Flags,</a> <a href="http://strikeaposefilms.com/2010/06/17/johnny-b-homeless-has-arrived">Al Thompson&#8217;s projec</a>t, the various indies I&#8217;ve been working on and the undying support of my family and friends, I would at least have a shot. Good thing all the training I&#8217;ve been doing with <a href="http://www.selfmasterysystems.org">Self Mastery Systems</a> at least let me feel like my body belonged there&#8230; </p>
<p>Special thanks also go out to a mentor of mine, Kevin Christy, who sent me this email regarding how I should approach the monologue contest:</p>
<blockquote><p>in a situation like this, don&#8217;t over do it. people make the mistake of trying to showcase every talent they have as opposed to just acting what&#8217;s appropriate to the piece. there are a a million monologues out there, it doesn&#8217;t matter so much which one you do. it matters how comfortably you execute it [...] try to enjoy yourself, performing when its done correctly is extremely fun. don&#8217;t worry about it . the life of a performer is filled with performances, there is no &#8220;most important&#8221; one. they are all the same. </p></blockquote>
<p> Truer words of wisdom are very rarely spoken! </p>
<p>Then I saw all these beautiful young women dancing and singing, and videos of chiseled Adonises up on the monitor,  I got pretty nervous pretty quick. My talents only extend as far as my pronunciation and occasional comedic timing (which usually involves flailing my arms around like a madman), hence me not usually starring in the Strike a Pose!!! Films you see on this site.</p>
<p>But when it came down to it, I worked my butt off and with help from my girlfriend, who had complete and unyielding faith in me (I know, I&#8217;d say she&#8217;s pretty crazy too!), I managed to win over the audiences with my performances, and get marks high enough from the incredibly supportive judges, sending me up into the heavens towards stardom!</p>
<p>Well, at least let&#8217;s hope so! </p>
<p>Once again, thank you to all my family and friends who helped out, I couldn&#8217;t have done this without you! </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It has been announced! The next film to be released on the STRIKE A POSE!!! roster will be the 2008 short-play adaptation, A Growing Problem, starring Khalfani Blount and Jennifer Ruggeri.<br />
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="480" height="385" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/czUWv86gwr4&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="480" height="385" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/czUWv86gwr4&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p><strong>Synopsis:</strong><br />
Helen is a widow and Frank is a widower. Their love has been growing for some time now, but so has one of Helen&#8217;s plants&#8230;and this may present some problems for their budding relationship. The thing is, Frank is a retired cop, and Helen&#8217;s plant may be slightly illegal.</p>

<p>As our first adaption of another writer&#8217;s work (and from another medium!), <strong>the story is taken from a short play written by professional playwright Jeanette D. Farr,</strong> who&#8217;s other work can be found <a href="http://www.10-minute-plays.com/playwrights/jeanette_d_farr.html">here.</a></p>
<p>Be sure to thank her, because Ms. Farr has graciously provided me with the permission to release this movie to the viewing public! So on<strong> Sunday night, June 6th,</strong> we&#8217;ll be premiering another great Strike a Pose!!! Film, our first romantic comedy furthermore, for the whole wide world to see!</p>
