Stepping back into the Arena

Hello All, I know it has only been a few days, so you must be surprised to see a post so soon, but progress, whether great or small is still progress!

Just quick update, currently working on a scene to preform for a Managers Showcase at The Actors Green Room Wednesday night! There's a lot of taping/filming going on in NYC this season and its about time Johnny Sal got into the mix, so cheers to landing a manager that can help get me there!

Hello friends & fans, attached is a picture from my birthday dinner.  I spent the weekend in Newport, RI with my wonderful girlfriend Diana.  We had an amazing trip and truly embraced being on vacation.  Its been said that short trips away help focus the mind, and I for one, am a firm believer.  I came back from my trip re-energized and poised to tear up fall as the business starts to heat back up.

I know it's been a while since my last post (as seems to be the trend despite my best intentions) so here's a synopsis of what I've been up to...class, intensive, showcase, class, intensive, showcase~hahahaha. All kidding aside, that really is what I've been up to with some quality auditions mixed in.  I've always known the trajectory my career would take and I am happy to report that I am right on track.  I've taken the steps in improve at my craft and sharpen my skills and I've put myself in front of the casting directors that call the shots!
I have read for primetime casting directors such as NBC's Trey Lawson, ABC's Janet Murphy-Butler, Fox's Clint Alexander and Kimberly Graham of Judy Henderson Casting.  I have also worked with Angela Mickey of Liz Lewis Casting, Lauren Bass, Allison Estrin, Judy Bowman.  All of which helped prepare me for the road ahead.  I know where I am on that road and I know where it leads me.  Although I am excited for where I am going, I am enjoying the journey to get there.

Next stop is primetime, films and fingers crossed a national commercial.  Until, then I continue to keep the pedal to the metal with the adage in mind:

"success is what happens when preparation meets opportunity" 

Thanks for stopping by and your continued support...

Until next time,

John Salutare

Hello friends and fans, my apologies for such a long absence.  The good news is-I've been busy!  Highlights of the year include: modeled for a book-cover, booking a regional TV commercial, my work being featured on several sites and OBVIOUS magazine declaring me a model to watch in a write up they posted online.  In addition to auditions and go-sees, I attended several seminars, workshops and next week I am taking a master auditions class with Tim Phillips at The Network.  I am very happy to say that I am freelancing with an agency that I wanted to work with since I first got into the business.   Whats coming up?  In addition to the audition class,  next week I start a 3-week hosting class with Brad Holbrook and the best part is...I will have a demo-reel showcasing me as a host at the completion of the class!

Yes, its fair to say I have been busy and things are really picking up...

Next stop???

Thank you all for the support!

Back in the swing of things

                                             

Hello World, I know its been a good while since I have posted.  The summer was a whirlwind of good times and many memories.  I pretty much took the summer off from acting/modeling but finished strong at the end of August with a shoot that will be delivering very good work from Brian Callabrese.  Most recently I am getting back into the swing of things with a very fun shoot in @TimesSquareNYC.  Attached is a sneak peak at images from both shoots.  Thank all of you both close friends and fans for you support.  I hope this post finds you all doing well.
