Audition Day at Maison Decor Home Office

The big day is here!
 Time to audition for a production company 
and maybe land in a TV show showcasing my design skills!
I went with black skinny pants
from a cool store in Boston called Turtle,
courtesy of my personal stylist Sarah McManus.
 I paired it with a black tank,
 a frenchy petite fleur jacket 
and black patent loafers.
My little sister, Ellen, was "my assistant". 
I swear she was more excited than I was!
She came over early this morning to offer support.
She's in the blue dress and I am in the red print. 
This is an old family photo of us right before
 we got on an airplane to go overseas. 
Isn't it funny how dressed up we all are for travel?
She still looks the same,
 but somehow I have turned into a blonde!
The camera "crew" has arrived. 
Here is Nicki, the casting director. 
She will also doing all the filming for the audition.
Nicki is directing me to speak about the 
mood board I made for a fantasy client.
You can see it on the wall behind me.

You know I had to blog about it during the shoot! 
Title: Blogger in Action

We've wrapped up the office and 
are going to head downstairs to film a tour of the house.
Nicki made everything so easy for me, 
she does her job effortlessly.
She asked Ellen to stay upstairs because of background noise, 
so I don't have any pics to share of her filming me downstairs.
Its a wrap! 
Wow, that was such fun!
Nicki told me I did a fantastic job~thats a relief.
So now I will wait 3 or 4 weeks to see if I make the cut.
I'll keep you all posted!

  3. Donna, The idea of the show is to have three decorators with three distinct styles who show a client their proposal for how to do over a space.
    No show host, but I can dream about that one too!

  7. I didn't have a chance to leave you message before you got a new post up! You look great and I'm glad things went smoothly! These next 3 to 4 weeks are going to drag! It makes me think of that song by Carly Simon, "Anticipation"....

  11. Amy,
    First of all you look so hip and so chic! I can only imagine the emotions you felt... joy, excitement and maybe just a tiny case of the jitters. Of course, you pulled it all off perfectly! The mood board and your sketch are such a lovely reflection of your amazing talent! I will so anxiously be awaiting the outcome. Kudos to you, my dear!
