1. How did you get started in the industry?

I took the leap and my mom and I drove from Texas to Los Angeles to try it all out – it worked! And we continue to travel back and forth.

2. What was it like going on your very first audition, were you nervous at all?

I was nervous in the waiting room – it was intimidating being on a working studio lot for the first time – but once I was in the room with casting I was fine.

3. What is the best part of doing voice over work for Imaginext Adventures?

That’s hard – I love everything about VO – there’s just nothing like being in the booth recording!

4. How did you enjoy filming your Nestle commercial?

That was my first time on set – honestly, my mom and I were just enjoying taking it all in – I had to splash in the pond for this commercial, so I had wardrobe changes.

5. What was the experience like to film General Hospital?

It was fun, as all jobs are! Soap Operas move quickly, but everyone on GH is so nice.

6. What was it like working on The Mindy Project?

Mindy Kaling is very nice and very creative. She improvs a lot on set.

7. How did you enjoy working with Emily Skinner?

Emily was fun – I think it’s a great benefit in this business that you get to work with and meet so many different people.

8. What was your time on set like filming Django Unchained?

Django was over the top awesome! Quentin Tarantino is cool. There were only 5 kids on set and he and the rest of the cast/crew treated us with respect. One shot we had to take about 20 times in a row and I was standing in mud holding a riffle, so it gets difficult after awhile, but that’s all part of the love of making movies! Being able to actually meet and work with Mr. Tarantino was such an honor!

9. Who have been some of your favorite people to work with?

I’ve enjoyed everyone I’ve had the opportunity to work with, but working with Ron Howard on Arrested Development was the best! He had always been someone I wanted to meet since everyone told me I was like Opie when I was younger. He is truly the nicest man ever!

10. Is there anything else you would like to add?

Just having the opportunity to do what I love to do is such a blessing! I’m happy my parents have supported me in pursuing my passion for acting. It’s an awesome dream!! You can continue to follow my career on Twitter or Facebook

 

We’d like to thank Tristan for participating in this year’s Holiday Q&A Event!
