ERICK4AANG™ | The Last Airbender
Martial Arts Black Belt, Break-Dancer extraordinaire and good friend: Erick Hufana has decided to plus his already impressive roster of skills with another: Acting.
Writer/director M. Night Shyamalan, bites into the big screen adaptation of the popular Nickelodeon Anime-influenced animated series Avatar: The Last Airbender. The ambitious live-action film is now due on July 2, 2010. The film’s title has been officially shortened to The Last Airbender, thus avoiding the 3D death ray of James Cameron’s AVATAR. Smart move.
What does this have to do with Erick? Well, Paramount Pictures was holding auditions, they were casting for the role of the main character: Aang. When Erick sent me a link to the website I said "I don't know anyone with the martial-arts background, knowledge of the series and overall "look" that you possess. This is your calling, you should do it." When he showed others, they reacted in a very similar manner, and he eventually decided to audition.
He enlisted my help to create an impressive audition tape that he could send to Paramount Pictures, as well as a themed|customized blog design where fans could vote for him as Aang. I accepted the challenge even though we discovered the audition details hours before the deadline. Special thanks to Veronica Hufana who also assisted on many aspects of this project.
The tape is in, the blog is complete, both on time. See both below. Oh, don't forget to vote ERICK4AANG!!! Visit ERICK4AANG for details and participate in the Poll.
