Re: Anna Akana
I don't think she's ripping off anyone, either. The initial post that began this thread is fail.
Re: Anna Akana
Anna just had her website redone. It's cool, but one thing that struck me was the fact she actually posted her height and weight on her resume. Really goes to show what hollywood really values.

You're supposed to list it on theatre resumes too.Kleineganz wrote:Anna just had her website redone. It's cool, but one thing that struck me was the fact she actually posted her height and weight on her resume. Really goes to show what hollywood really values.

It's important because certain characters have to be around a certain size.
I see what you're saying, but that's not why they're listed.

Re: Anna Akana
can she not list Riley Rewind as an Internet based project on her resume? Just curious.
Re: Anna Akana
Yeah, I was wondering about that myself. Maybe because she wrote it, not just starred in it? It's possible she's tailoring her resume specifically towards acting only right now.massieblock13 wrote:can she not list Riley Rewind as an Internet based project on her resume? Just curious.

I love her 12 short films project. It's nice to see someone so driven and hard working!

Re: Anna Akana
I love Anna too! Have you guys seen her interview with Cast & Crew Call? http://castandcrewcall.com/have-coffee- ... interview/ I'm so happy that all of her hard work is paying off...I hate it when people accuse others of "copying," referring to a style, not material. I love Natalie as well, but I'm glad that there are more and more Asian females doing comedy skits on YouTube. As long as it's their own material and it makes me laugh, the more the merrier!

Re: Anna Akana
Love her. One of the few female youtubers with actual intelligence and original character that doesn't falter to whatever's "in" at the time. Her videos are both witty and insightful.
What peeves me is that there are these youtubers who do nothing but post challenges and talk random shit who get ten times more views and recognition than Anna, just because they have a British accent and are semi good looking.
Any opinions on her recent short film, "Emergency Call"? For a beginner in directing, I think she's brilliant.

Re: Anna Akana
im so disapointed by anna. she was one of my favorite youtubers.. and i knew she take drug because of who her boyfriend is but doing a video and telling your demographic of 14-17 its okay to try it is totally wrong..
she uploaded the video, then delete it and reuploaded it without the audible ad. i guess they asked her to take the video down because they dint want to be associate with this awful message

Re: Anna Akana
I was disappointed too, I didn't know that she was pro drugs and sex for teenagers, I didn't watch the rest of the video after she said that.
Kids are gonna see the video and start doing drugs etc because someone admirable on YouTube said it's fine -_-
I'm also guessing that she forgot to mention the part about drugs being illegal in most places...

Re: Anna Akana
I actually don't disagree with what she said in her video. I like her honesty and straightforward approach. The only thing I don't agree with is the notion that we'll all have a ton of sex partners… I've only had one partner so far, in my early 20s and don't want to have sex with too many more people. I think she was just using hyperbole, and like I said, I approve of her message. Kids are gonna try these things no matter what anyone says, and if they got anything from her video, it was smart advice, telling them to be safe, etc.

Re: Anna Akana
I've watched Akana I while as well, and I don't mind the video at all either.
Kids do these things, kids that have things set in their mind ARE GOING TO DO IT. I knew in highschool I didn't want to do drugs or drink, so guess what? I didn't. I drank half of a Mike's Hard Lemonade in 8th , and a shot of tequila in 9th. But as soon as I was about done (as in I knew there was no way I WASN'T going to graduate), hell yes-I went out and tried A LOT OF THINGS. AND I DO NOT REGRET ANY OF IT.
BUT with that being said, I was always safe. Any drug I tried, I looked up 12 tons of information on it. How much to take, how much not to take, what to eat, what to drink, or not drink, etc. And I always took it in the comfort of my own home, with a sober roommate to be there JUST IN CASE. Some of the best times of my life.
Anna is also right about pot. DARE does lie and fear monger kids. It doesn't work. And actually after typing this, I applaud her. Good for her for taking a stand on what she thinks and believes, despite what others may think or say.

Re: Anna Akana
Apparently she and Ray broke up in May. Kinda figured they had broken up or were taking a break and on their way to a break up when Anna's filming location changed and she posted a video about private life changing issues awhile back. I wonder who is keeping the cats? I applaud them for being able to (mostly) hide it and stay very civil.

Re: Anna Akana
For how long have they been together? That is sad news, I did not expect that to happen. I wonder why they broke up , they seemed to get along very well and had many common interests.

Re: Anna Akana
Will they still do the podcasts? What's gonna happen to their cat Congress? So many questions! Lol
It's too bad that they broke up, I thought they were a good couple too.
Ray said apparently nothing juicy happened, I'm guessing they just got bored of each other?
