Well, still no word from the Hubbellcraft in Canada (NOTE: this is a not-so-subtle reference to Robert Redford’s character in “The Way We Were,” but since my husband had no idea what the last line of my last post meant, I thought I’d better clarify).
Personally, I’m not holding out much hope at this point, but a girl can dream.
Meanwhile, Emma did the cutest shoot for Purina last month. I booked it myself, and got my hand slapped for doing so by one of her 801 agents, but frankly I thought working with animals would be good for her–and fun! It was a seasonal in-store display ad for retail stores. She had to play with a bunch of dogs and cats under a Christmas tree.
I have to say, it seemed that it would be a lot easier than it was.
Emma worked with the most adorable cats and dogs (Diesel and Molly) who were extremely well-trained. Of course, the trainers were on set throwing a treat their way every 5 seconds, but still, I was impressed. They had to maintain a scene for long lengths at a time. I didn’t know who it was harder for, Emma or the animals! I walked away with a whole lot of respect for these on-set animal trainers.
I had actually taken quite a few shots from my iPhone and somehow they’ve disappeared. So, instead, here’s a picture of Emma doing Flamenco dancing at her end-of-summer performance with LA Ballet’s Summer Camp. She’s the skinny one in the maroon leotard.
