http://mikemitchelljr.com/journal the journal Sun, 01 Aug 2010 02:46:46 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en So, I arrived in Japan, Narita airport, around 5p on July 22, 2010. I am contracted to be here until April 1, 2011. It sounds like an eternity. But, if I've learned nothing else thus far in my life, it is that time really does fly! I quickly became overwhelmed once ... http://mikemitchelljr.com/journal/?p=38 The album is finally complete and available for sale on iTUNES and Amazon.com!!! http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?id=327979116&s=143441 Please rate, comment, and spread the word!!! Seeing as though there is no actual "hard copy" of the album, I wanted to take a moment to write an "album insert" if you will, giving credit to the studio(s) and/or ... http://mikemitchelljr.com/journal/?p=35 So, Just to update this thing--since it's been a while--I recorded VO for Goldman Sach's Investment Bank the other day. I made my month's rent in about an hour. That's always nice! :-) And bonus for wearing ANYTHING I wanted! I love these VO gigs. I was in flip-flops, jeans, ... http://mikemitchelljr.com/journal/?p=34 So, We just wrapped production on the pilot episode of the TV Show I wrote! I was lucky to have amazing actors on board that donated their time and brilliance to the project! James, my director/editor friend is busy editing it as we speak. I can NOT wait to see the ... http://mikemitchelljr.com/journal/?p=32 It's been a while since I've written anything.  Funny how so many journal entries begin with "It's been a while." Anyway, the Junie B. Jones tour is going well.  The itinerary is the best part.  I'm getting to see California for the first time and Vegas here I come!  Matthew Schatz, ... http://mikemitchelljr.com/journal/?p=31 So, yesterday I had a meeting with Jim Daly, a talent agent with BlocNYC. After about 20 minutes, I whipped out 32 bars of Being Alive, followed by a 2 min. serio-comic monologue. We talked some more and then I was given a contract! Woo hoo! :-) Well, I'm off for a ... http://mikemitchelljr.com/journal/?p=30 So, I've actually had an idea for a television show for quite some time now. And I've finally written the entire pilot episode, a treatment, and a couple subsequent episodes. My friend, James Papadopoulos, a fairly successful, freelance editor, director, producer, has agreed to help me shoot the pilot! Most recent developments include ... http://mikemitchelljr.com/journal/?p=29 For the sports fanatics out there: I probably lived a lot of guys' dream yesterday. I had to write a post about this. I understand the opportunity was wasted on someone a little undeserving/appreciative, and for that I really am truly sorry. Haha. As someone who doesn't really care about sports or ... http://mikemitchelljr.com/journal/?p=28 So, the Freedom Train tour came to it's end on May 2, 2008. I've since been back in NYC, currently living in Washington Heights. It sure is far, but beautiful. It's by far the largest apartment I've lived in NY. You definitely get more for your ... http://mikemitchelljr.com/journal/?p=27 So, tour began the morning of January 14th (my brother's birthday--happy birthday, Matt!) Here we are 5 days later, and the cast already knows way too much about eachother, and we've already done way too many shows it seems.  We are all exhausted.  We joke that it feels as though we've ... http://mikemitchelljr.com/journal/?p=26
