No, no, no, it’s not what you think! I promise. A few people got in touch with me after finding me in a photo on Molly Sims’ blog, how random is that?! Fun, though. It was a special on “Mismatched Bridesmaids Dresses” and a photo from my cousin’s wedding(my cousin is wedding photographer, Meg Perotti) was featured. Take a look:

Pretty cute, eh?!

A Couple Things…

Well, it has been a little while since I last posted, so let’s see…where do I start?! The Hallmark Channel’s “Jingle All The Way” was a huge success! I feel incredibly honored that I was chosen to be a part of this project. It gave me some incredible experience with voice over work, and I am thrilled to have it on my resume. Here are a few reviews of the project, one of which came from The New York Times, thankyouverymuch

There is even a freakin’ App for it!

I also have to say I am incredibly inspired these days. My dear friend, playwright Claire Willett, wrote an amazing show called, “Dear Galileo”. The show was staged at Artist’s Repertory Theatre, directed by Stephanie Mulligan, as part of the 2012 Fertile Ground Festival. Let me tell you…it was BEAUTIFUL! It is such an exciting feeling to see a new work, and know it is going somewhere. This play will be produced, no doubt in my mind. It was intelligent, thought provoking, touching and relevant. I am so glad I got the chance to see it, because it truly inspired me as an artist and human being. Here are a few reviews:

Next on the “Morgan Agenda” are a few auditions for some local Portland projects, including the PATA Annual Auditions, held at Artist’s Repertory Theatre, as well as some teaching interviews…wish me luck! Oh yeah, and finishing my writing project, which will hopefully result in a storytelling performance! Stay tuned

Morgan in new Holiday special for The Hallmark Channel!

Well, now that they are doing press releases about the project, I can OFFICIALLY talk about it…yay! SO. A few months back I had the opportunity to do some voices for a scratch version(much like a ‘rough draft’) of a holiday special, Bent Image Lab was working on for The Hallmark Co. They ended up enjoying my work so much, I had a door opened for me with their casting director, in Los Angeles. I booked the part of MOM in the new, animated holiday special, “Jingle All The Way,” set to air on The Hallmark Channel, in late November, 2011! I am VERY excited to be a part of this project. It is directed by Chel White, who has done many projects with Bent Image Lab, as well as on his own, most recently the film “Bucksville” which utilized a multitude of Portland’s local talent pool. Although I have done some voiceover work, in the past, this is my biggest booking to date, and it will be seen nationally!

Morgan’s Voice…

Let’s see, I’ve been in Portland now for a little over three months and I am still giddy each morning, knowing that this is now my home. Truly. A lot has been going on. I’ve been auditioning quite a bit, which has been wonderful. Well, it’s always a bit nerve-wracking(you know, being a necessary evil and everything), but having new opportunities is exciting and something I am very thankful for.

Speaking of being thankful…I booked some amazing voice over work! Unfortunately, I can’t talk much about it in detail(signed confidentiality contracts and all that good stuff), but I will say it is a big deal and I am so happy to have gotten the opportunity/door opened on this one! It was quite a challenge, but I loved every minute. The project will not be released until Winter 2011. I would love to do more of this and hopefully having booked this work will get me in some more VO doors. Here is a clip of some animated VO work I did in LA, a few years ago:

Here’s to Portland

I have not updated in a while, but my life has been going through some crazy wonderful changes. About four weeks ago I was offered a job in Portland, Oregon, as an assistant with an animation company…and I accepted! I then proceeded, within a matter of 9 days, to sell all of my furniture, pack up my car, move out of my apartment and make my way to Portland, Oregon. I arrived on a Sunday afternoon, managed to squeeze in an Oscar party at my lovely friend Claire’s house, and started work on Monday. This is one of the best decisions I have made in a long time. I am so content…with moments of true happiness.

When I was in Portland, back in January(to perform in a play), my cousin Meg Perotti, a photographer, visited with her husband and took some great photos. I thought I would share a few with you. Here is a direct link to her blog where you can check out more of her amazing work; Meg Perotti Photography Blog

Morgan Performing in 3rd Annual Fertile Ground Festival of New Work!

morgancox — Mon, 06 Dec 2010 21:05:38 +0000

I am so thrilled to be part of the 3rd annual Fertile Ground Festival of New Work, in Portland, Oregon, in the New Year! I was cast as one of the leads in a new play, “That Was the River, This Is the Sea”, by Claire Willet and Gilberto del Campo. I am reading the part of Rose, January 24th – January 28th, at The Art Department.

*Bit of history: Claire and I both attended Saint Mary’s Academy, in Portland. Graduated the class of 1999. We were both involved in the theatre department, and even performed in a few shows together! Facebook connected us, once again, and led to this amazing opportunity. Thank you, Social Networking! And thank you, Claire, for letting me bring Rose to life.

I am so excited! A few months ago I read these “Dating Tips,” and I could not help but be amused at the thought of putting them into action. They were just so…ridiculous. Needless to say, since the thought of myself(or anyone, for that matter) actually acting these out made me laugh, I decided to make a funny video.
