SAG-AFTRA Actor, WordPress Presenter, & Public Speaker
New Media with Chris Rogers The Actor.
Yes, I know this is old. Once I upload my most recent video, I will cut together an updated basic 3 min reel. This will have to do until then.
While living/working/surviving in LA, I got the chance to go back to school and got a degree in MultiMedia from West LA College. Now that I’ve got CHRMEDIA going, I’m starting to perform again. I joined SAG-AFTRA back in Miami in 1996. This is my Commercial Demo reel.
Title: Two Roads
Role: Principal – Cop #1
Director: Avery Williams
Production Company: Studio 11 Films
Casting Director: Kim Flowers
IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4209706/
Two Roads is an entry into (former) President Obama’s My Brother’s Keeper Initiative. I play a cop pulling over a kid who is at the wrong place and the wrong time. The kid is not involved in exercising his right to vote. This short shows two very different outcomes.
I like playing cops. This was a challenge because I had to keep the energy up, say lines, and do physical actions while the adrenaline was pumping!

Title: House of Lies, Episode #203, “Man-Date”
Role: Day Player – Security Guy
Director: Stephen Hopkins
Production Company: Showtime
Casting Director: Felicia Fasano
IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2553600/
The Director loved my “fingers to eyes” movement and we spent quite a bit of time with closeups of me glaring at the Guggenheim character as he passed me by. Unfortunately, the Editor had to trim it down due to time constraints. I was speaking so low in my chest/vocal register, I could barely hear myself (on the inside). The Audio guy said he was impressed. It was a wonderful experience and hope to be on the show again next time they go to Las Vegas.
Stephen Hopkins was Co-Executive Producer of 24 – one of my favorite TV shows!
