This is a reading (audition style) from a scene from a short film called “This Is Not 500 Days of Summer”.
It was read for director Norman Buckley (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0118665/) for a workshop.
The short was written and performed by Scott Bender in this video.
As of now the short is in preproduction and should be filmed in March 2017.
Check out Scott play the friend we all loved and hated at the same time, Ray, in an episode of LME’s “My Crazy Ex”.
Aired on Feb. 8th, 2017, Scott can be seen in the first story (of three) in the episode linked below. A combination of American Pie’s Stiffler and Ferris Bueller, you’ll be sure to laugh at Ray’s push to party.

On the eve of my 10th birthday, my Dad came into my room and said, ‘Tomorrow is a big day, it’s a day you turn double digits, and where your age will be for the rest of your birthdays. Try to remember it’.
I don’t. I have no idea what I did for my 10th birthday (probably Discovery Zone as in the picture) but I remember that moment. And I remember it very well.
