PARDON MY APPEARANCE

Hi guys,
I have had a vision since I began this blog and after relentless efforts, I'm getting closer to bringing it to life. Bare with me as I transition slightly in an attempt to brand myself more appropriately

HE'S PROTECTING ME FROM MYSELF

While washing my face last night I got excited! Literally, God’s plan just smacked me in the face. No, I don’t have his plan figured out but I was able to draw a parallel. As I walk this ‘faith based life’ I am constantly drawing parallels. That’s it! My faith is clearly a reflection of the many reasons he has given me throughout my life to trust him today and forever more.   So when it hit me last evening, I couldn’t help but get excited about his presence.   To catch you guys up to speed.. I’m looking for a place, I’m updating my comp card, portfolio and business cards. I’m shooting a webseries, I’m preparing for a pretty big meeting with someone I truly respect and admire and I’m auditioning ohhh and I’m wearing a ponytail, haaaa! Any whooo, I realized that this is one of the times in my life when God is protecting me from myself.           “There was a time when I would have said yes to that engagement. “ ...

Video 1 or Video 2 or neither one

Ok So this is the meat and potatoes of why I created Nikiva Dionne please add sugar.. The video sharing. I hope this works out because, I am totally still on training wheels with this blog thing. ANYWOOooh Today I took an extremely drastic step towards my dreams. I quit my job. I know, long story I'm not into detail sharing rite now. But, needless to say. I came home and I have been on my computer working for 6 hours straight. Every time I want to stop, i remember i don't have a job, and I keep going,lol..

New Monologue- VIDEO FEEDBACK

Ok so below is a new video that I NEED YOUR FEEDBACK on. I think I really love this monologue. This is my FIRST rendition of it. If you guys think it's naturally good, meaning it's already believable, than i'll continue to work on it an develop it into an audition piece.  When I was taking scene study classes our instructor before she gave any feedback would ask the class... Did yall believe her? After all, that's what this is about. Was the performance convincing? Did this person appear to be someone who is going through this situation. These days I'm really working to find monologues that I'M IN LOVE WITH, that I can 'go into' at the drop of a dime, if i run into a director and they wanna see something. (yeah, I do stuff like that.. ) I remember i auditioned for a runway show in time sq. in front of espn zone and duane reade. LMAO I booked the show... so heyy 1st rendition from nikiva dionne on Vimeo . Listen, i've said t...
