SoulPancake “The Science of Happiness” Experiment

Happiness

Have you ever shown up to work one day and had NO idea what you were in for? Life as an actress allows for that most of the time, but usually not to this extent.

For an introvert like myself, it usually takes a while to become comfortable in my surroundings. Ordinarily I’ll get to the set of a music video, commercial, TV show, film, etc. and have plenty of time to check in with the assistant director, settle down and then ask my fellow actors what they think the shoot is going to be like. This day there were NO other actors, and I was prompted to sit down at a table opposite a young man in a lab coat that I never met before. What happened next? Well, you’ll have to watch to find out…
