Michele's Interests
General
Networking with film and music folks, exploring! Networking me and the band for those who wonder! www.micheleandthemidnightblues.com & COMING SOON, THE MICHELE AND THE MIDNIGHT BLUES MUSIC STORE
Music
The band I front and the music we do is my main focus. You can buy our new CD A Night of Storytelling

BUY 'Eyes Set to Midnight'
Movies
THIS IS AN OLD CUCALORUS FILM FESTIVAL COMMERCIAL WITH ONE OF THE ACTORS FROM THE HIT TV SHOW 'ONE TREE HILL'. HOWEVER, TAKE NOTE...I MAY BE BIASED BUT I THINK THE PARKING LADY ROCKS. 'HE' THOUGHT 'SHE' REALLY WAS A PARKING LADY AT FIRST!
All time favorite: Color Purple. Other favorites, too many to list.
And now a Silly Video
Television
These days: LOST, Medium, House MD. Guilty pleasures, Vegas and Extreme Home Make Over. I spend more time on A&E, Discovery, National Geographic, H G tv, than I do on any of the major networks these days.
INTERESTED IN FUNDING A DOCUMENTARY CALLED "I was a Zombie Wrangler and Lived to Tell"? Here is a small sample of the amusing look behind the scene of a Zombie movie.
Books
Belgariad series (fiction) Enders Game and Speaker for the Dead (fiction), The Diary of Eugene Desiree Claree (based on translations). Prefer biography, historical and factual books to fiction. Still sneak under the blanket with my flash light to read my comics when no one is looking!
THE SAGA OF EGG AND HIS FRIEND MARSHMALLOW. This is a Playlist and you can click the grouped box icon or put your mouse over the bottom to see the individual video links. You can also click the arrows on the right and left of the video screen!
Heroes
1st: Mom, 2nd: Dad, 3rd: D. Brubaker, 4th: Malcom X, 5th: Ghandi. Then there are the heros who don't know it. The little things we do daily can make a major impact on another persons life years later. To this day I still hear the echo from a speaker who came to my school when I was 7 years old. I have no clue who this person was but they said if you get attacked do not yell help because some people do not want to get involved. Yell fire because people will worry their house might burn too. Jump forward 16 years when I got attacked by two men while walking near the Manhattan Bridge (lived a block away) I flashed back to those comments and yelled fire. The cops got there in two minutes...in NYC! The bad guys did get away but that was because I also fought back and all the yelling must have made them worry they would be caught so they took off. The cops said they had 20 calls reporting my screams. Something that was said to me at 7 years old saved my life in my 20's. We are all Heros if we make an effort in this world. You never know what little thing you will do or say that changes the future for another human being. Be a hero today if you can in any small way.
THIS MAN IS ONE OF MY HERO'S. PLEASE WATCH THIS VIDEO AND CHECK OUT THE FULL BELLY PROJECT. THIS CAN CHANGE THE WORLD.
EVERY NEW ACTOR SHOULD WATCH THIS AND EVERY SEASONED ONE WILL LAUGH!
I don't stay mad for long. I assume life and karma will take care of that in the end. Yes I work in film, in this town everyone does, or claims they do. My band and the music is what keeps me sane. The Blues just makes me happy, go figure!
LATEST SHORT FILM MICHELE WAS IN: Must have latest Quick Time to View. Please copy and paste this link.('A Little Mouth to Feed' is NOT for the faint at heart and IS R rated for the horror content)
Check out my band by clicking the 1st pic in my friends section or go to www.micheleandthemidnightblues.com. I have worked in film, television and stage for over 30 years. I get paid to teach camera skills and have taught for Universities and Colleges. I am the former Film Studies Director of an area College. I have produced short films and documentaries too but BACK to the MUSIC...
I sing with my band, Michele and the Midnight Blues when not acting on film or TV projects like Port City PD episode 4 as Beverly the Whore/Drug Dealer. The indie film Dingalingless has me playing a whore again. Empire Records I was a cop, Dangerous Lives of Alter Boys I was Trailer trash! Just played a Church going women in the feature film Patriotville in August 2006. My credits are on the imdb.com under my full name Michele Seidman. But the music...now that rocks my world and you notice how the chatter always comes back to it one way or another!
SPEAKING OF BLUES...MICHELE IS ALSO THE PRODUCER OF THE NATIONAL WOMEN IN BLUES FESTIVAL. VISIT WWW.NATIONALWOMENINBLUES.COM FOR MORE INFO
Who I'd like to meet:
I AM NOT ADDING EVERYONE WHO REQUESTS. I know 85% of the folks on my friend section in person. I am trying to keep it that way because it is faster to search. ALL ACTORS WELCOME but BAND Profiles are blocked now. Sorry, but I don't listen to techno, or metal or alt and I don't need to read all the invites to events 1000 miles away. IF YOU PLAY BLUES email me and I may add from this side. MY BAND is the 1st in the friend section and I 'add' freely on the band list!
DIRECTORS AND PRODUCERS PLEASE LOOK THROUGH MY FRIENDS LIST AS IT IS CHOCK FULL OF ACTORS FOR ALL YOUR PROJECTS,
I trained many (but not all on this list) of them and/or cast them in a project, so I can give you feedback when needed.
NOW ADDED, A VIDEO OF MICHELE AND THE MIDNIGHT BLUES LIVE AT THE 1ST NATIONAL WOMEN IN BLUES FESTIVAL.
WiB Mamma's Song
This is a short film one of my Young actors did a few years ago. The title is 'Long Time Coming'. The player might show a quick commercial prior to the film starting. It is short so be patient. The actor Shawn is a young adult now but this was shot when he was 11.
..
Sounds good:P I'm doin good, I am now officially a senior so that's pretty cool. But hey, you stil look young, and that's all that matters:P Even if you do have those Middle Aged Bones...
