Less than 1 week to go!!

Wednesday, Sep 9, 2009 3:18PM / Members only

Hey AnD'ers!!

Hope you are all doing great!!

Before I throw an update on what's going on, I'd like to give a SHOUT OUT to the AnD artists who won the ESPRIT Casting!!

Congrats are in order to the gang of CB FRESH (You all looked so damn sharp and stylish in your creative letter T's, btw. Y'all rock!!!) and to the double-winner Vince (who won for CB Fresh and the Amazing Race team!) Hey Vince, does that mean you get 2x the money pot??!

Way to go everyone, and can't wait to see all your beautiful, happy, Esprit smiles all over the place!

As for me, I can't believe it's less than 1 week to the opening of Amadeus!!

I'm sooo excited, as it will be my first production in HK! But I'm thrilled to be a part of this show, and it is gonna be off tha hook! SO DON'T MISS IT!!!!!!!

The costumes are so heavy and as Mozart's wife, I've got dresses and layers of clothing = I'm gonna be a sweaty mess!!!

But, everyone will look pretty smashing in their wigs and outfits....so for that alone, you gotta come out and support the HK theatre scene!

Remember, its September 15th - 19th at the SHOUSON THEATRE!!!!
Get tix at Urbtix or any of their outlets.

And bring your friends!!! :)

Have a great week everyone~

Summertime in HK

Saturday, Jul 25, 2009 12:56PM / Members only

Hi AnD'ers!

My, how time flies. Sorry that its been so long since my last blog (my goal was to try and do 1 per month, but that didn't really pan out!)

It's been an interesting and productive few months since the last blog. I shot One More Day in Hong Kong, a feature film that is in post in the US right now (hopefully I will get a trailer at some point!) I also went home to Hawaii in June for a friends wedding and other events, and I have been busy rehearsing for my play Amadeus. It's gonna be a great show--come out and see it in September!

OHHH, and I finally uploaded photos too! This is a big accomplishment for me, u know! haha I am so slow about uploading pics from my camera to my comp and then online..its an arduous process for me :P silly right?! I just let the memory card fill up and then when I can't take any more pics, I realize that its time to upload.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy the pics from various events the last few months: acting class with Jeanne and Jason, the class wrap party, the AnD 2nd Anniversary party, filming One More Day in Hong Kong, and there are some publicity shots for Amadeus too!

I hope you are all doing great and keeping the arts alive~

S-Fo

P.S. Amadeus: Sept. 15th-19th. See the flier below for more info!

US Film Shoot!

Tuesday, May 26, 2009 5:41PM / Members only

Hey AnD'ers!

Just wanted to fill you in on a project that I am doing this week.

I'm excited to let y'all know that I'm playing the lead role in a feature film shooting in HK! It's an "indy" film, and the producer/writer/director is an Emmy winner from the US. This is his pet project, and its almost like "Lost in Translation" meets "Before Sunset."

Just finished my second day of filming, and we're doing it guerrilla style..meaning burning through the script and getting all the shots done as fast as possible, while still maintaining the flow and tone that he is going for.

It's been really fun, and my co-star Ed is great too. I've never ever filmed something so fast though! I am so exhausted by running around and getting 20+ pages of script filmed per day. Phew, lots of memorizing and improvising goin' on!!

Anyway, hopefully, the trailer will be done in a month or so, and I'll put that up..And if things go well, it will make the festival circuit and get picked up for distribution.

I'm getting some fun pictures along the way. I promise, I'll get some of 'em up sometime soon!

Thanks for reading~

Steph :)

Jeanne's Acting Class! And other updates..

Sunday, May 17, 2009 11:36PM / Members only

Hey AnD'ers!

It's been a few wks since my last blog..and since then, I've been up to a few things! For one, I filmed a part for a comedy webisode..a series that will be online. It's in post production now, but I'll put it on AnD when it's done. Had a great time, and played a "Wanchai American Bargirl"--a different role than I'm usually cast in :P But it was fun! If the series gets popular, I might be doing more episodes too! Will keep y'all posted.

I also started rehearsals last week for my first Hong Kong production, Amadeus. It went really well, and the cast is very experienced and great to work with. It's looking to be a ton of fun, for sure. It is a big budget production, so the team is going all out with sets, costumes, props etc. Come on out to see it in September!!

And last but certainly not least, I also attended Jeanne Hartman's Acting Workshop last week too! It was so wonderful to work with her and practice cold reading and audition technique. Jeanne has the ability to translate abstract concepts into tangible ideas that an actor can easily understand and utilize. She is so warm and encouraging, and made us all feel so free and comfortable in class. It was so great for me to meet fellow actors too, especially AnD official artists! And having studied and worked in LA, I can attest to the fact that it is absolutely essential to have strong auditioning skills! Otherwise, you cannot compete with the acting pool out there. Working with Jeanne helped me to practice and improve on my skills, so that I can do my best at an audition. Thanks Jeanne =) And thanks Jason for being a terrific event coordinator. None of this would have happened without your hard work and efforts! Can't wait to do it again.

Til the next blog, best wishes everyone!
Steph :)

AMADEUS!

Tuesday, Apr 21, 2009 10:40PM / Members only

Hey guys!

First off, thanks so much everyone for your comments and for becoming fans! Wow, it's great to be on AnD, and its so cool to see all the support that artists and fans give to each other.

I just got back from a trip home to Hawaii, and it was so nice to see all these new messages on my profile. I'll have to add some fun photos from my trip--went snorkeling, scuba diving, and got a chance to spend time with family, friends, and my future in-laws!

Also wanted to let you all know that I am going to be doing my first HK theatre production! I'm happy to share that I'll be playing the lead female role of Constanze in the play Amadeus. If you don't know the play, check out the 1984 movie "Amadeus." It's based on the play, and its a fabulous movie. F. Murray Abraham is fantastic--his performance won him an Oscar, and its worthy to study if you're an actor.

Anyway, for those of you in HK, the play goes up in September, and I'd love to have you in the audience. I'll keep you guys posted on the dates/times.

Til the next blog (I'm still getting used to this!), best wishes to everyone on AnD!

Steph

When a Girl Cries ------------The World "Consoles" her
But when a boy cries ---------- They say Come on man
don't be A "Girl"
If A Girl slaps a Boy ----------- Definitely the Boy would have "done something"
If Boy Slaps a girl ------------ -- Rascal doesn't know how to "Respect Ladies"
If a Girl is talking to Boys
----- She is "Very Friendly"
If a Boy talks to a Girl
---------- He is "flirting"
If a Girl meets with accident ------------ --------
Then its "mistake of others"
If a Boy meets with same accident -----------? - --?------
"Don't you know how to Drive"
What A World Is this

Please help us God..

Stephanie Fodor was born and raised in Kailua, Hawaii, USA. She started in the entertainment biz at age four, when she was spotted by a talent agent and began modeling. She did print work and commercials for American and international companies for several years, and fell into acting at the age of eight. Her grade school teacher suggested that she try out for the school play, and she ended up getting the lead role! And she hasn't stopped since. She also studied dance since the age of four, doing tap, then years of ballet and pointe, and then street dance, jazz, funk and hip hop, which she still does regularly.

Over the years, Stephanie has performed lead roles in plays and musicals, including "Annie" in Annie, and "Anne Frank" in The Diary of Anne Frank. The Hawaii State Theatre Council nominated her for Best Actress in a Musical for Annie, and Stephanie went on to win Best Actress in a Drama, for Anne Frank. Stephanie has appeared in American tv, film and commercials, and earned a membership in the professional actor's union SAG (Screen Actor's Guild), at age nine!

Stephanie graduated from Punahou High School with Honors (Barack Obama did too!) and went on to graduate cum laude, with a B.A. in Politics, from top-ranked Brandeis University, in Boston, USA. Stephanie also recently graduated from the Professional Actor Training Program at the famed Baron Brown Acting School, in Los Angeles. And to add to the wide array of life experiences that Stephanie is very grateful for, she lived and studied in Tokyo, Japan, and worked in tv/film production and development in LA too.

Stephanie is excited to be a part of AnD-an amazing community of artists, and looks forward to meeting new friends and enjoying new artistic experiences while in Hong Kong.
