Just in case you don’t feel like killing a bunch of bad guys in order to get to me…

Here’s one of the scenes my character has in the video game, inFamous 2

Sarah, the sacrifice.

enjoy, y’all!

the TWIST experience…so far

Ava Gaudet — Mon, 18 Jul 2011 22:08:07 +0000

Ok, first of all… it has been SO LONG since I have blogged! Wowzers! I guess I have just been so hyper-focused on my work in TWIST that I’ve been ignoring this, leaving countless stupid videos unshared, a multitude of adorable outfits undocumented, and some truly incredible experiences unexpressed! This must stop TODAY! There is so much to talk about, here’s the abbreviated version….

I have been happily dedicated to TWIST for these past couple of months…trying to enjoy each moment before its over, and it will be over SOON! Just 5 more performances to go before our run at The Pasadena Playhouse is over! (there’s still time to get tickets – GO HERE)

TWIST went into previews on June 14th, at which point we made some major changes to the show (all for the better) and in the end it all came together in such an incredible way! By the time opening weekend came around we were all SO excited and proud of what we had accomplished, and we just wanted to share it with the world!

Here are a few V.I.P’s that came to check us out:

Kristin Chenoweth

Louis Farrakhan (really!?)

Adam Lambert (with my fellow TWIST cast mate, Holly Hyman)

And….just when I thought it couldn’t get any better, I met my idol, my favorite artist of all time and my musical inspiration,

the one and ONLY

STEVIE WONDER!!

aaaaaaahhhhh!

I’m so grateful for this experience… to have had the chance to work with the amazing Miss Debbie Allen, and to have met, worked with, and become *friends* with this incredible cast, crew, and creative team!!

I just want to say THANK YOU to all of my friends, family, and fans who tuned in to watch me on N.C.I.S last night! I can’t believe how many sweet texts, facebook comments, messages & tweets I got after the show aired! Thank you, you guys are awesome.

I’ve been really busy the past few days; rehearsing for the Rock &Roll Freedom Show tonight (more on that later), table read #2 for a new musical I’ve been a part of, preparing for auditions, all while doing a massive spring cleaning around the house… I’ve been running around like crazy!! In fact, as of the time of this post I still haven’t had a second to watch the episode myself!

I came across this clip posted by a fan of the show, and it just so happens to be my scene! Sweet. So, in case you missed it….

NOW, on to TONIGHT!! Tonight I have the privilege of performing with a very talented artist name Shaley Tuin at The Key Club on the Sunset Strip. It’s part of the Rock & Roll Freedom Show, and it should be a really good time! Her back up band consists of The Cold Chills stars: Rob Gaudet on drums and Ferrari Watts slappin’ da bass, as well as Kris Moser on guitar and lil ‘ol me sanging some background vox. Come on out tonight, LA folks! I want to see you there! Click Here info:

N.C.I.S

Ava Gaudet — Wed, 19 Jan 2011 07:29:37 +0000

Today I worked on an upcoming episode of CBS’s N.C.I.S. It was a really fun guest star role, and I had a BLAST on-set with the super cool cast and crew! These people are really awesome….so fun and laid back, they operate like a well-oiled machine (as you could imagine they would after 8 seasons!) and were so welcoming to me!!! (as I’m sure they are to all the guest star actors coming and going on their set) It was totally fun, and I loved it…

I’m not sure when the episode will air, but to be SURE I will let you all know when I know

stay tuned….

…as a side note, I came across the REAL N.C.I.S. website (as in, NOT the TV show) and it’s pretty interesting… check it out

Love Bites

Ava Gaudet — Tue, 19 Oct 2010 10:14:14 +0000

Last week I filmed a guest star role on the new NBC series LOVE BITES!! The show is described as, Irreverent and poignant, Love Bites pulls back the curtain to expose modern romance – in a way you’ve never seen before.
I had an absolute BLAST filming this and I can tell already that this series is going to be great!
The show is a mid-season replacement so it’s set to debut sometime this winter, as soon as I know when my episode will be on, I’ll be sure to let you all know!!

stay tuned…

inFAMOUS 2

Ava Gaudet — Wed, 15 Sep 2010 06:30:18 +0000

Today I finished working on my first motion capture voice-over job playing a character in the up coming video game inFAMOUS 2. It was SO much fun, not to mention, I think the mocap suit is a really good look for me.

(me and Eric Ladin)

So, all you gamers out there, keep an eye out for the next installment in the inFAMOUS series! From the looks of this trailer (and having had a sneak peak behind-the-scenes) I think it’s going to be pretty awesome!

EVIL ANGEL Screening in LA – May 15, 2010

Ava Gaudet — Fri, 07 May 2010 05:43:43 +0000

I’m really excited to announce that there will be another screening of the still-yet-to-be-OFFICIALLY-released movie EVIL ANGEL here in LA! If you’re here in SoCal, this is a great opportunity to check it out on the BIG screen!!

EVIL ANGEL will be appearing at the PARANOIA FILM FESTIVAL in Hollywood, CA on Saturday May 15th, 2010 at 8:50 pm

Tickets are $10

PARANOIA FILM FESTIVAL

Check out the EVIL ANGEL trailer:

*This trailer contains nudity*

….. which brings me to a point I think I should discuss here on my website, just so that it’s out there. I wanted to let everyone know that although my character “Carla” is shown nude many times in this film, I DID NOT do the nudity. It was a body double. It was a personal choice that I made at the time because I wasn’t comfortable with it enough to do it myself. It was NOT because I disagree with it, or have any sort of problem with it in the creative sense… it was just a personal choice that I made. I wanted to do this movie so badly, and I was so excited with the opportunity to play the role of “Carla”, and I was SO grateful to Richard Dutcher (the writer/director of the film) that he agreed to put himself through all the extra time and work to accommodate my request. I think he did an incredible job making the movie look seamless!! I’m very proud of this film…. and I hope you guys check it out!!
