00:03:34,212 --> 00:03:36,704


Fabiana Udenio: for a while and I came here, but generally



99


00:03:37,727 --> 00:03:38,970


Fabiana Udenio: so it's been since the late 80s.

00:03:39,030 --> 00:03:39,772


Fabiana Udenio: How long has that been?



101

119


00:04:11,968 --> 00:04:12,590


Marc Preston: in Argentina?



120


00:04:13,763 --> 00:04:16,193


Fabiana Udenio: Yes, i was born in Argentina.



121


00:04:16,233 --> 00:04:18,000


Fabiana Udenio: My parents are Italian, but my dad went to



122


00:04:18,161 --> 00:04:21,090


Fabiana Udenio: Argentina to join his father, who had a



123


00:04:21,492 --> 00:04:23,980


Fabiana Udenio: company there, and so they got married



124


00:04:24,401 --> 00:04:24,902


Fabiana Udenio: really young.



125


00:04:24,942 --> 00:04:27,348


Fabiana Udenio: My parents went to Argentina with my sister,



126


00:04:27,409 --> 00:04:30,464


Fabiana Udenio: who was one year old, and they stayed there



127


00:04:30,524 --> 00:04:31,526


Fabiana Udenio: for 15 years.



128


00:04:31,687 --> 00:04:33,451


Fabiana Udenio: So I was born there, stayed there until I



129


00:04:33,491 --> 00:04:37,607


Fabiana Udenio: was six or seven or depending on whether I



130


00:04:39,050 --> 00:04:42,303


Fabiana Udenio: Yes And then they went back to Italy And so



131


00:04:42,383 --> 00:04:44,990


Fabiana Udenio: my upbringing was in Italy, my schooling



132


00:04:45,110 --> 00:04:47,504


Fabiana Udenio: and all What kind of work was your father



133


00:04:47,544 --> 00:04:49,129


Fabiana Udenio: doing in Argentina?



134


00:04:49,149 --> 00:04:49,891


Marc Preston: What was his trade?



135


00:04:50,942 --> 00:04:52,925


Fabiana Udenio: They were importing and exporting



136


00:04:54,989 --> 00:05:00,332


Fabiana Udenio: photographic equipment And they were doing



137


00:05:00,352 --> 00:05:00,633


Fabiana Udenio: pretty well.



138


00:05:00,653 --> 00:05:01,960


Fabiana Udenio: But you know, in Argentina the economic,



139


00:05:02,663 --> 00:05:05,434


Fabiana Udenio: political system goes up and down, so I



140


00:05:05,474 --> 00:05:06,980


Fabiana Udenio: think there was a crash, political,



141


00:05:07,964 --> 00:05:10,373


Fabiana Udenio: everything And so my mother I think it was



142


00:05:10,434 --> 00:05:13,343


Fabiana Udenio: my mother at the time that decided I wanted



143


00:05:13,363 --> 00:05:15,688


Fabiana Udenio: to go back And my dad kind of maybe didn't



144


00:05:15,788 --> 00:05:19,809


Fabiana Udenio: want to, but they went back to Italy And so



145


00:05:19,849 --> 00:05:22,000

146


00:05:22,682 --> 00:05:23,545

209


00:07:31,682 --> 00:07:35,470


Fabiana Udenio: I really wanted to stay in the states But I



210


00:07:35,490 --> 00:07:37,321


Fabiana Udenio: didn't know whether that was going to be



211


00:07:37,361 --> 00:07:37,762


Fabiana Udenio: possible.



212


00:07:37,782 --> 00:07:40,789

00:07:52,301 --> 00:07:55,248


Marc Preston: it's on the Mount Rushmore of movies from



218

Marc Preston: to be their summer school teacher.



220


00:07:58,228 --> 00:07:59,940


Marc Preston: After that movie, and I think after you



221


00:08:00,341 --> 00:08:01,525


Marc Preston: were in it, i think there's probably



222


00:08:01,565 --> 00:08:02,709


Marc Preston: thousands of young men that were



223


00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:04,886


Marc Preston: petitioning their parents to can we do a



224


00:08:04,946 --> 00:08:06,451


Marc Preston: foreign exchange student for the area?



225


00:08:07,948 --> 00:08:10,945


Marc Preston: So Coming from Rome and doing that movie



226


00:08:10,965 --> 00:08:13,222


Marc Preston: and just walking around LA, what was it



227


00:08:13,262 --> 00:08:14,104


Marc Preston: like when you first started getting



228


00:08:14,205 --> 00:08:14,927

Marc Preston: What was that Like?



231


00:08:16,621 --> 00:08:18,086


Marc Preston: was that a little bit odd for you to be



232


00:08:18,166 --> 00:08:19,210


Marc Preston: recognized at that point?



233


00:08:20,180 --> 00:08:21,746


Fabiana Udenio: Actually, when I was doing the soap opera



234


00:08:21,766 --> 00:08:24,507


Fabiana Udenio: in New York, that was interesting because



235


00:08:24,527 --> 00:08:26,200


Fabiana Udenio: the soap operas had kind of a following.



236


00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:29,033


Fabiana Udenio: So they were asking, especially at the ABC



237


00:08:29,073 --> 00:08:30,661


Fabiana Udenio: Studios right there Lincoln Center, they



238


00:08:30,681 --> 00:08:32,127

Fabiana Udenio: school, getting cast in that The biggest



241


00:08:40,145 --> 00:08:42,830


Fabiana Udenio: emotion was to go to the Paramount Studios



242


00:08:43,090 --> 00:08:45,362


Fabiana Udenio: and just see the Paramount sign and going



243

255


00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:18,326


Fabiana Udenio: I don't know, since I was seven years,



256


00:09:18,446 --> 00:09:20,412


Fabiana Udenio: eight, nine, i wanted to be an actress.



257


00:09:20,861 --> 00:09:23,349


Fabiana Udenio: I was my sister, who's older than me, tells



258


00:09:23,389 --> 00:09:27,206


Fabiana Udenio: me that I was imitating commercials all the



259


00:09:27,246 --> 00:09:29,408


Fabiana Udenio: time And I just you know, i don't know.



260


00:09:29,901 --> 00:09:31,968


Fabiana Udenio: And then I was 11 or 12.



261


00:09:32,121 --> 00:09:33,840


Fabiana Udenio: I wanted to do acting classes.



262


00:09:33,940 --> 00:09:36,129


Fabiana Udenio: I did a little theater in the neighborhood



263


00:09:36,740 --> 00:09:41,150


Fabiana Udenio: And then I won Miss Teen Italy when I was



264


00:09:41,791 --> 00:09:42,793


Fabiana Udenio: 12 and a half.



265


00:09:42,961 --> 00:09:45,197


Fabiana Udenio: That's Italian for you, really Well that



266


00:09:45,217 --> 00:09:45,984


Fabiana Udenio: wasn't even That's.



267


00:09:46,024 --> 00:09:47,902


Fabiana Udenio: That's that's not quite legal, but you know.



268


00:09:47,922 --> 00:09:50,050


Fabiana Udenio: So they wanted to take the title away from



269


00:09:50,131 --> 00:09:52,299


Fabiana Udenio: me because I don't know if it's right or



270


00:09:52,339 --> 00:09:52,500


Fabiana Udenio: wrong.



271


00:09:52,620 --> 00:09:53,944


Fabiana Udenio: I don't know legally what it would be,



272


00:09:54,987 --> 00:09:57,601


Fabiana Udenio: because I'm born in December And I think



273


00:09:57,662 --> 00:10:01,411


Fabiana Udenio: the title, the competition, was before my



274


00:10:01,471 --> 00:10:01,952


Fabiana Udenio: birthday.



275


00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:05,009


Fabiana Udenio: So I wasn't quite a teenager technically,



276


00:10:05,380 --> 00:10:08,154


Fabiana Udenio: but I kept the title because you know



277


00:10:08,347 --> 00:10:08,567


Fabiana Udenio: there's.



278


00:10:08,647 --> 00:10:11,393


Marc Preston: But still in Italy, being that young and



279


00:10:11,493 --> 00:10:14,526


Marc Preston: having, was it really big, was it?



280


00:10:14,821 --> 00:10:16,326


Marc Preston: Obviously it's a big competition, but it



281


00:10:16,366 --> 00:10:18,063


Marc Preston: wasn't something that gave you an aspect of



282


00:10:18,124 --> 00:10:20,116


Marc Preston: notoriety to people say, oh, this girl,



283


00:10:20,156 --> 00:10:23,008


Marc Preston: fabiana, you know she's only 12 or 13, but



284


00:10:23,048 --> 00:10:26,063


Marc Preston: she was in a big deal, or Yeah, it was, it



285


00:10:26,103 --> 00:10:27,087


Marc Preston: was, it was a big deal.



286


00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:31,732


Fabiana Udenio: It was sort of like in a pageant kind of a



287


00:10:31,812 --> 00:10:34,680


Fabiana Udenio: way, without any sort of way, you know,



288


00:10:34,780 --> 00:10:36,652


Fabiana Udenio: like a pet, like you know there is still a



289


00:10:36,753 --> 00:10:38,121


Fabiana Udenio: talent competition, but it's still like



290


00:10:38,161 --> 00:10:38,684


Fabiana Udenio: it's a pageant.



291


00:10:39,321 --> 00:10:41,592


Fabiana Udenio: But what happened to me right after I got



292


00:10:41,632 --> 00:10:43,662


Fabiana Udenio: cast in the Tempest to play Mirana, that



293


00:10:43,702 --> 00:10:44,505


Fabiana Udenio: was a big deal.



294


00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,746


Fabiana Udenio: The theater director, george Ostrich, he's



295


00:10:47,786 --> 00:10:51,382


Fabiana Udenio: like he was an icon of the theater all over



296


00:10:51,503 --> 00:10:54,727


Fabiana Udenio: Europe And so to be cast so young in that



297


00:10:55,309 --> 00:11:00,390


Fabiana Udenio: sort of gave me three, 16, away, a prestige



298


00:11:01,052 --> 00:11:03,763


Fabiana Udenio: and weighed as an actor And for a while



299


00:11:03,824 --> 00:11:05,088


Fabiana Udenio: that's all I wanted to do.



300


00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:07,563


Marc Preston: I wanted to do theater, i wanted to was it



301


00:11:07,623 --> 00:11:09,308


Marc Preston: intimidating for you at all being that



302


00:11:09,369 --> 00:11:11,184


Marc Preston: young and then jumping into this, this



303


00:11:11,224 --> 00:11:12,568


Marc Preston: thing and getting that kind of recognition?



304


00:11:12,668 --> 00:11:13,190


Fabiana Udenio: It was.



305


00:11:15,581 --> 00:11:19,129


Fabiana Udenio: I was completely in love with theater and I



306


00:11:19,190 --> 00:11:22,706

307


00:11:22,746 --> 00:11:22,847


Fabiana Udenio: all.



308


00:11:22,867 --> 00:11:24,030


Fabiana Udenio: I wanted to be Juliet.



309


00:11:24,110 --> 00:11:26,565


Fabiana Udenio: After that It was intimidating, but I was.



310


00:11:26,686 --> 00:11:27,809


Fabiana Udenio: I worked so hard.



311


00:11:28,900 --> 00:11:30,245

312


00:11:31,843 --> 00:11:34,304


Fabiana Udenio: He's he's a maestro of that, but he did



313


00:11:34,685 --> 00:11:35,007


Fabiana Udenio: like me.



314


00:11:35,100 --> 00:11:38,147


Fabiana Udenio: He did like the fact that I was so raw and



315


00:11:38,227 --> 00:11:41,821


Fabiana Udenio: young and Miranda much like Juliet, juliet,



316


00:11:42,002 --> 00:11:44,589


Fabiana Udenio: juliet and Miranda they are she is very



317


00:11:44,690 --> 00:11:48,146


Fabiana Udenio: young And so there were some qualities that

Fabiana Udenio: he was able to to to use of the young.



319


00:11:52,940 --> 00:11:55,507


Fabiana Udenio: You know the innocence of this that I was



320


00:11:55,627 --> 00:11:58,121


Fabiana Udenio: bringing to the stage, to the table, just



321


00:11:58,482 --> 00:12:00,849


Fabiana Udenio: for the fact that who I was and how hard I



322


00:12:00,909 --> 00:12:01,451


Fabiana Udenio: was working.

00:12:02,042 --> 00:12:04,527

00:13:23,684 --> 00:13:25,529


Marc Preston: Whenever I try, my brain tries to actively

00:13:27,626 --> 00:13:28,714


Marc Preston: you're not going to be able to do that,

00:13:28,855 --> 00:13:29,500


Marc Preston: which is embarrassing.



365


00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:30,750


Marc Preston: When you're out with people and you try to



366


00:13:30,770 --> 00:13:32,000

00:13:39,624 --> 00:13:40,445


Marc Preston: doing this pageant.



373


00:13:40,485 --> 00:13:43,993


Marc Preston: You're doing, i'm assuming that the theater



374


00:13:44,033 --> 00:13:44,133


Marc Preston: thing.



375


00:13:44,364 --> 00:13:45,963


Marc Preston: That was a touring thing, that just wasn't



376


00:13:45,983 --> 00:13:46,485


Marc Preston: at one theater.



377


00:13:47,241 --> 00:13:48,606


Marc Preston: So were your parents okay with that, or



378


00:13:48,666 --> 00:13:49,509


Marc Preston: were they hesitant?



379


00:13:49,740 --> 00:13:52,385


Fabiana Udenio: My mother had to follow me because the



380


00:13:52,425 --> 00:13:54,229


Fabiana Udenio: structure in Italy they weren't so



381


00:13:54,249 --> 00:13:57,881


Fabiana Udenio: accustomed to underage performers Like here



382


00:13:57,922 --> 00:14:00,368


Fabiana Udenio: you have a whole system of schooling and



383


00:14:00,408 --> 00:14:00,548


Fabiana Udenio: rules.



384


00:14:03,261 --> 00:14:04,085


Fabiana Udenio: It wasn't so much.



385


00:14:04,420 --> 00:14:06,325


Fabiana Udenio: I don't know how it is right now for



386


00:14:06,626 --> 00:14:08,650


Fabiana Udenio: somebody that's underage, but at the time



387


00:14:08,731 --> 00:14:09,172


Fabiana Udenio: it wasn't.



388


00:14:09,580 --> 00:14:11,651


Fabiana Udenio: So my mother had to follow me and my mother



389


00:14:11,711 --> 00:14:13,179


Fabiana Udenio: completely embraced it, but it wasn't.



390


00:14:13,199 --> 00:14:16,007


Fabiana Udenio: She wasn't like the stage mom because it



391


00:14:16,048 --> 00:14:16,990


Fabiana Udenio: was my passion.



392


00:14:18,522 --> 00:14:21,810


Fabiana Udenio: So she supported me, but it didn't come



393


00:14:21,870 --> 00:14:23,233


Fabiana Udenio: from her, it really came from me.



394


00:14:23,340 --> 00:14:25,024


Fabiana Udenio: And then she, of course she supported me



395


00:14:25,084 --> 00:14:30,162


Fabiana Udenio: and my sister liked writing And so I used



396


00:14:30,222 --> 00:14:30,483


Fabiana Udenio: to.



397


00:14:30,784 --> 00:14:35,596


Fabiana Udenio: When I was invited in Italy to TV shows and



398


00:14:35,637 --> 00:14:38,961


Fabiana Udenio: talk shows I used to recite her poems And



399


00:14:39,361 --> 00:14:40,163


Fabiana Udenio: so that was.



400


00:14:40,684 --> 00:14:41,846


Fabiana Udenio: She stopped doing that, but she was a



401


00:14:41,927 --> 00:14:44,331


Fabiana Udenio: really, really talented writer.



402


00:14:44,432 --> 00:14:47,981


Fabiana Udenio: For her She did road poems and things, but



403


00:14:48,042 --> 00:14:49,325


Fabiana Udenio: so my mom didn't embrace it and they'd



404


00:14:49,345 --> 00:14:50,689


Fabiana Udenio: support me, but it didn't come from her.



405


00:14:51,180 --> 00:14:53,825


Fabiana Udenio: She didn't push me, not even for the teen



406


00:14:53,926 --> 00:14:54,167


Fabiana Udenio: thing.



407


00:14:55,343 --> 00:14:57,249


Fabiana Udenio: It was my wanting to do it.



408


00:14:57,882 --> 00:14:59,307


Marc Preston: Well, where did your interest come from,



409


00:14:59,347 --> 00:14:59,507


Marc Preston: though?



410


00:15:00,020 --> 00:15:01,025


Marc Preston: What was the genesis of that?



411


00:15:01,705 --> 00:15:03,040


Marc Preston: Were you a precocious child?



412


00:15:03,141 --> 00:15:04,897


Marc Preston: I mean, were you or were you shy when you



413


00:15:04,917 --> 00:15:05,220


Marc Preston: were growing up?



414


00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:07,968


Fabiana Udenio: I think I was full of energy, not shy, when



415


00:15:08,008 --> 00:15:08,911


Fabiana Udenio: I was growing up.



416


00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:11,167


Fabiana Udenio: I think I became a little bit more shy



417


00:15:11,247 --> 00:15:15,225


Fabiana Udenio: later And I think maybe acting or



418


00:15:15,646 --> 00:15:19,693


Fabiana Udenio: performing it's always been my therapy and



419


00:15:19,753 --> 00:15:20,274


Fabiana Udenio: escape.



420


00:15:20,740 --> 00:15:24,125


Fabiana Udenio: Every time I was nothing mattered and it



421


00:15:24,185 --> 00:15:29,452


Fabiana Udenio: was catapulting me in a state of happiness



422


00:15:29,533 --> 00:15:30,254


Fabiana Udenio: and escape.



423


00:15:30,274 --> 00:15:31,375


Fabiana Udenio: It was like the great escape.



424


00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,921


Fabiana Udenio: I never did any call, it's just them, and I



425


00:15:34,961 --> 00:15:37,048


Fabiana Udenio: think it stayed that way throughout my life.



426


00:15:37,460 --> 00:15:41,131


Fabiana Udenio: It's this outlet, amazing outlet and fun,



427


00:15:41,552 --> 00:15:43,980


Fabiana Udenio: addictive escape.



428


00:15:45,104 --> 00:15:45,627


Fabiana Udenio: That's like it.



429


00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:48,322


Marc Preston: Well, that's the thing I coach a lot of



430


00:15:48,984 --> 00:15:49,345


Marc Preston: some students.



431


00:15:49,385 --> 00:15:52,180


Marc Preston: Even an actor is in LA on a voiceover And I



432


00:15:52,220 --> 00:15:53,504


Marc Preston: always say, when you shut the door on that



433


00:15:53,564 --> 00:15:55,911


Marc Preston: sound booth, the whole world stays outside



434


00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:57,244


Marc Preston: And it's just like when you're on camera.



435


00:15:57,264 --> 00:15:59,822


Marc Preston: You can disappear for a moment And to me



436


00:15:59,863 --> 00:16:00,485


Marc Preston: it's cathartic.



437


00:16:01,980 --> 00:16:03,683


Marc Preston: You can kind of disappear and use your



438


00:16:03,703 --> 00:16:05,226


Marc Preston: imagination to be more kid-like.



439


00:16:05,446 --> 00:16:07,250


Fabiana Udenio: Absolutely True.



440


00:16:07,671 --> 00:16:09,514


Fabiana Udenio: True, and I love voiceover too.



441


00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:11,345


Marc Preston: Oh, I noticed you did do some of that



442


00:16:11,365 --> 00:16:11,706


Marc Preston: yourself.



443


00:16:11,727 --> 00:16:11,827


Marc Preston: I did.



444


00:16:12,820 --> 00:16:14,065


Fabiana Udenio: I did a lot of it individually, but here



445


00:16:14,125 --> 00:16:17,025


Fabiana Udenio: too, and when you do voiceover, it's even



446


00:16:17,366 --> 00:16:19,211


Fabiana Udenio: more because you don't have to even, not



447


00:16:19,271 --> 00:16:20,543


Fabiana Udenio: even more or less, but you don't have to



448


00:16:20,583 --> 00:16:21,968


Fabiana Udenio: worry about your look.



449


00:16:22,140 --> 00:16:23,940


Fabiana Udenio: It's just sometimes very liberating.



450


00:16:24,241 --> 00:16:25,406


Fabiana Udenio: You know you go with it whatever.



451


00:16:26,180 --> 00:16:26,942


Fabiana Udenio: So it's a different.



452


00:16:27,122 --> 00:16:30,592


Fabiana Udenio: but I love all sides of the craft.



453


00:16:30,740 --> 00:16:31,243


Fabiana Udenio: I really do.



454


00:16:31,740 --> 00:16:33,084


Marc Preston: Did your sister follow you into



455


00:16:33,685 --> 00:16:35,109


Marc Preston: entertainment at all, or did she go a



456


00:16:35,129 --> 00:16:35,691


Marc Preston: different path?



457


00:16:36,522 --> 00:16:37,566


Fabiana Udenio: No, she went a different path.



458


00:16:38,260 --> 00:16:40,868


Fabiana Udenio: She liked traveling, so she was a flight



459


00:16:40,888 --> 00:16:44,086


Fabiana Udenio: attendant And she traveled a lot more than



460


00:16:44,146 --> 00:16:44,407


Fabiana Udenio: I did.



461


00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:47,305


Marc Preston: You know, my daughter, my 17-year-old,



462


00:16:47,445 --> 00:16:48,207


Marc Preston: really wants to.



463


00:16:48,268 --> 00:16:48,950


Marc Preston: She has this whole plan.



464


00:16:49,741 --> 00:16:51,386


Marc Preston: She did both her junior and senior year



465


00:16:51,426 --> 00:16:53,883


Marc Preston: together, just wrapped them up And she's



466


00:16:53,904 --> 00:16:55,965


Marc Preston: very smart And she said she wants to travel.



467


00:16:56,180 --> 00:16:58,265


Marc Preston: So she wants to do travel as a flight



468


00:16:58,305 --> 00:16:59,528


Marc Preston: attendant early.



469


00:16:59,568 --> 00:17:01,272


Marc Preston: She's smart, she's all doing my early 20s



470


00:17:01,620 --> 00:17:03,125


Marc Preston: And if I decide it's not for me, then I got



471


00:17:03,145 --> 00:17:03,607


Marc Preston: the degree.



472


00:17:03,647 --> 00:17:05,202


Marc Preston: I can go do something else, but if I like



473


00:17:05,222 --> 00:17:06,206


Marc Preston: it, i'm just going to keep doing it.



474


00:17:06,246 --> 00:17:07,089


Marc Preston: I'll have seniority.



475


00:17:08,944 --> 00:17:10,909


Marc Preston: But I grew up in Dallas, where you have



476


00:17:10,949 --> 00:17:12,942


Marc Preston: American Airlines based there, and I met



477


00:17:13,022 --> 00:17:14,441


Marc Preston: all kinds of flight attendants And I always



478


00:17:14,582 --> 00:17:15,566


Marc Preston: envied their lifestyle.



479


00:17:15,660 --> 00:17:17,326


Marc Preston: They could just go jump on a plane and go



480


00:17:17,386 --> 00:17:18,369


Marc Preston: somewhere if they wanted to.



481


00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:19,585


Fabiana Udenio: My sister did love it.



482


00:17:20,123 --> 00:17:21,677


Fabiana Udenio: She was based in Italy, She was working for



483


00:17:21,717 --> 00:17:25,487


Fabiana Udenio: Italy And then at Italy like many things in



484


00:17:25,547 --> 00:17:27,691


Fabiana Udenio: Italy went sort of bankrupt.



485


00:17:27,752 --> 00:17:30,064


Fabiana Udenio: So they downsized And she went into



486


00:17:30,084 --> 00:17:32,441


Fabiana Udenio: retirement from her job a little early And



487


00:17:32,461 --> 00:17:33,786


Fabiana Udenio: she missed it for a long time.



488


00:17:34,360 --> 00:17:35,744


Fabiana Udenio: I missed it too, because I used to get all



489


00:17:35,785 --> 00:17:39,094


Fabiana Udenio: these tickets, free tickets and all these



490


00:17:39,114 --> 00:17:39,475


Fabiana Udenio: perks.



491


00:17:43,547 --> 00:17:44,990


Marc Preston: The family tickets that they get.



492


00:17:45,030 --> 00:17:46,713


Fabiana Udenio: Yes, i missed it too.



493


00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:49,781


Fabiana Udenio: I was very spoiled for a while living here



494


00:17:49,841 --> 00:17:52,883


Fabiana Udenio: and going there just for an objection or to



495


00:17:53,203 --> 00:17:53,543


Fabiana Udenio: whatever.



496


00:18:01,191 --> 00:18:02,815


Marc Preston: Now when you came here you were doing the



497


00:18:02,855 --> 00:18:04,338


Marc Preston: thing a lot of American actors do.



498


00:18:04,726 --> 00:18:06,732


Marc Preston: They have their the kickoff of their career



499


00:18:06,852 --> 00:18:09,289


Marc Preston: on soap operas, and I remember my



500


00:18:09,349 --> 00:18:11,415


Marc Preston: grandmother when I was always over at their



501


00:18:11,455 --> 00:18:13,909


Marc Preston: house at least once a week, stay over, and



502


00:18:13,929 --> 00:18:16,655


Marc Preston: then she was watching General Hospital and



503


00:18:16,715 --> 00:18:18,560


Marc Preston: I think one life till they're That's the



504


00:18:19,141 --> 00:18:20,808


Marc Preston: one I did And yeah, and so it's like I



505


00:18:20,848 --> 00:18:22,866


Marc Preston: became very aware of the character, i mean



506


00:18:22,946 --> 00:18:25,072


Marc Preston: more than probably a eight, nine, 10 year



507


00:18:25,092 --> 00:18:25,733


Marc Preston: old kid should.



508


00:18:25,834 --> 00:18:27,828


Marc Preston: But I think that a lot of kids grew up like



509


00:18:27,869 --> 00:18:28,431


Marc Preston: that, you know.



510


00:18:28,945 --> 00:18:30,592


Marc Preston: But a lot of those actors then and I've



511


00:18:30,632 --> 00:18:33,022


Marc Preston: interviewed a number of them that you are



512


00:18:33,343 --> 00:18:34,869


Marc Preston: doing really well now that had their start



513


00:18:35,551 --> 00:18:37,829


Marc Preston: in soap opera, and the funny thing about



514


00:18:37,849 --> 00:18:39,795


Marc Preston: that is how fast you have to learn the



515


00:18:39,855 --> 00:18:40,256


Marc Preston: scripts.



516


00:18:40,445 --> 00:18:42,010


Marc Preston: I mean, were there any challenges?



517


00:18:42,070 --> 00:18:43,574


Marc Preston: when you went from doing stage to doing



518


00:18:43,615 --> 00:18:44,116


Marc Preston: soap opera?



519


00:18:44,185 --> 00:18:45,969


Marc Preston: You had got a new script frequently and you



520


00:18:45,990 --> 00:18:46,992


Marc Preston: have to learn it pretty quick.



521


00:18:47,032 --> 00:18:47,734


Marc Preston: Was that a challenge?



522


00:18:47,754 --> 00:18:48,757


Fabiana Udenio: for you, absolutely.



523


00:18:49,265 --> 00:18:51,172


Fabiana Udenio: And then the language, because they cast me



524


00:18:51,232 --> 00:18:51,614


Fabiana Udenio: in Italy.



525


00:18:52,847 --> 00:18:55,692


Fabiana Udenio: They were on location and I was supposed



526


00:18:55,712 --> 00:18:58,897


Fabiana Udenio: tothis character was supposed to be working



527


00:18:58,977 --> 00:19:03,012


Fabiana Udenio: fora couple of weeks and then they liked it



528


00:19:03,133 --> 00:19:04,557


Fabiana Udenio: and they offered me the contract.



529


00:19:04,625 --> 00:19:07,975


Fabiana Udenio: So I went well, go to New York and love the



530


00:19:07,995 --> 00:19:08,115


Fabiana Udenio: idea.



531


00:19:08,425 --> 00:19:11,111


Fabiana Udenio: But the work was hard because, yes, you do



532


00:19:11,191 --> 00:19:14,217


Fabiana Udenio: have to learn all of that fast and it was



533


00:19:14,257 --> 00:19:14,938


Fabiana Udenio: another language.



534


00:19:15,225 --> 00:19:16,813


Fabiana Udenio: So usually when you're in command of the



535


00:19:16,853 --> 00:19:18,502


Fabiana Udenio: language, if you forget a line, you kind of



536


00:19:18,542 --> 00:19:22,089


Fabiana Udenio: like work around with it, but if I forgot



537


00:19:22,129 --> 00:19:25,005


Fabiana Udenio: the line I couldn't replace it with Well,



538


00:19:25,025 --> 00:19:26,610


Fabiana Udenio: you could improv in Italian and kind of



539


00:19:26,630 --> 00:19:27,833


Fabiana Udenio: give it a little something extra.



540


00:19:27,853 --> 00:19:29,847


Fabiana Udenio: Yeah, I could, but it was a little bit more



541


00:19:29,867 --> 00:19:32,975


Fabiana Udenio: challenging because you don't have a word



542


00:19:33,015 --> 00:19:35,189


Fabiana Udenio: that you can substitute and go on with the



543


00:19:35,229 --> 00:19:37,035


Fabiana Udenio: line or work around.



544


00:19:38,290 --> 00:19:42,870


Fabiana Udenio: So it was, and it taught me it was great



545


00:19:45,735 --> 00:19:49,220


Fabiana Udenio: practice for improving the language English.



546


00:19:49,785 --> 00:19:51,349


Marc Preston: Now, summer school had to come and that was



547


00:19:51,429 --> 00:19:54,877


Marc Preston: 87, I think was that roughly 87, 86, 87.



548


00:19:55,345 --> 00:19:56,490


Marc Preston: What was filming that like?



549


00:19:56,706 --> 00:19:58,715


Marc Preston: Because me, as a Gen X kid I think anybody



550


00:19:58,795 --> 00:20:00,925


Marc Preston: listening to this who is of a similar age



551


00:20:01,045 --> 00:20:02,791


Marc Preston: to me is thinking like if I don't ask, I'm



552


00:20:02,811 --> 00:20:03,514


Marc Preston: going to get in trouble.



553


00:20:03,945 --> 00:20:07,612


Marc Preston: What was it like shooting that film that I



554


00:20:07,632 --> 00:20:08,735


Marc Preston: guess y'all shot during the summer?



555


00:20:08,895 --> 00:20:09,416


Fabiana Udenio: Absolutely.



556


00:20:09,677 --> 00:20:10,398


Fabiana Udenio: Was it the summer?



557


00:20:10,965 --> 00:20:13,911


Fabiana Udenio: It wasn't that warm, but I can't remember



558


00:20:14,573 --> 00:20:17,078


Fabiana Udenio: what time of the year, maybe late summer,



559


00:20:17,098 --> 00:20:19,497


Fabiana Udenio: or because it wasn't really hot.



560


00:20:19,538 --> 00:20:20,484


Fabiana Udenio: I remember being on the beach.



561


00:20:20,545 --> 00:20:21,829


Marc Preston: Well, then again in Southern California it



562


00:20:21,849 --> 00:20:22,932


Marc Preston: always looks like summer, right.



563


00:20:23,945 --> 00:20:25,109


Fabiana Udenio: So, but I remember what it was called and I



564


00:20:25,149 --> 00:20:27,990


Fabiana Udenio: remember I was cold, so but it could happen



565


00:20:28,010 --> 00:20:28,773


Fabiana Udenio: that it was a cold day.



566


00:20:28,845 --> 00:20:31,730


Fabiana Udenio: I just remember being cold, but it was



567


00:20:31,790 --> 00:20:32,031


Fabiana Udenio: great.



568


00:20:32,586 --> 00:20:35,654


Fabiana Udenio: Carl Reiner was like a father figure for



569


00:20:35,874 --> 00:20:36,556


Fabiana Udenio: all of us.



570


00:20:37,567 --> 00:20:40,748


Marc Preston: Oh, that's right, You only had a very small



571


00:20:40,848 --> 00:20:42,533


Marc Preston: role at the very beginning, but he directed



572


00:20:42,553 --> 00:20:42,713


Marc Preston: that.



573


00:20:42,773 --> 00:20:43,756


Marc Preston: Totally forgot about that.



574


00:20:44,065 --> 00:20:46,926


Fabiana Udenio: He directed that movie, yes, and then Frank



575


00:20:46,966 --> 00:20:51,547


Fabiana Udenio: Ling from Full House wrote it And so Carl



576


00:20:51,567 --> 00:20:54,913


Fabiana Udenio: Reiner directed it and it was just a very,



577


00:20:55,193 --> 00:21:00,808


Fabiana Udenio: very fun set to be around And you felt



578


00:21:00,848 --> 00:21:03,654


Fabiana Udenio: completely safe and he allowed us to



579


00:21:03,775 --> 00:21:07,309


Fabiana Udenio: improvise And Marc Harman was a class act,



580


00:21:07,349 --> 00:21:10,296


Fabiana Udenio: but all the kids they had a lot of fun.



581


00:21:10,336 --> 00:21:12,588


Fabiana Udenio: The two would change And we actually just



582


00:21:12,628 --> 00:21:17,659


Fabiana Udenio: had an autograph signing and they were



583


00:21:17,739 --> 00:21:21,190


Fabiana Udenio: talking about how much they were having fun



584


00:21:21,405 --> 00:21:22,347


Fabiana Udenio: And I was having fun too.



585


00:21:22,387 --> 00:21:28,502


Fabiana Udenio: But much like my character, my command of



586


00:21:28,542 --> 00:21:30,527


Fabiana Udenio: the language, especially when it's about



587


00:21:30,687 --> 00:21:33,627


Fabiana Udenio: comedy wasn't 100%, so a lot of the stuff



588


00:21:33,647 --> 00:21:35,754


Fabiana Udenio: that we're laughing about I didn't really



589


00:21:35,814 --> 00:21:39,513


Fabiana Udenio: get, and so sometimes I was feeling left



590


00:21:39,653 --> 00:21:40,957


Fabiana Udenio: out of the joke.



591


00:21:41,325 --> 00:21:43,812


Marc Preston: Well, i think that probably was what was



592


00:21:44,013 --> 00:21:45,666


Marc Preston: part of the humor of the film, like you



593


00:21:45,686 --> 00:21:47,430


Marc Preston: weren't totally getting, especially when



594


00:21:47,450 --> 00:21:49,556


Marc Preston: they were showing you the horror film.



595


00:21:50,206 --> 00:21:51,810


Marc Preston: Yes, but it was like, okay, how's she going



596


00:21:51,830 --> 00:21:52,472


Marc Preston: to digest that?



597


00:21:52,492 --> 00:21:53,555


Marc Preston: she loves it, yes.



598


00:21:55,869 --> 00:21:56,290


Fabiana Udenio: And all the.



599


00:21:56,992 --> 00:21:58,096


Fabiana Udenio: It was a talented cast.



600


00:21:58,706 --> 00:22:01,653


Fabiana Udenio: These kids were, you know, and Carl Reiner



601


00:22:01,713 --> 00:22:03,377


Fabiana Udenio: just a father figure for all.



602


00:22:03,945 --> 00:22:09,056


Fabiana Udenio: It was a really wonderful, warm, welcoming



603


00:22:09,977 --> 00:22:10,318


Fabiana Udenio: set.



604


00:22:10,805 --> 00:22:12,490


Marc Preston: I just I'm so envious you had a chance to



605


00:22:12,630 --> 00:22:14,575


Marc Preston: act with and for Carl.



606


00:22:14,595 --> 00:22:15,526


Fabiana Udenio: Reiner You know.



607


00:22:15,626 --> 00:22:17,051


Marc Preston: Everybody in his family seems to be as



608


00:22:17,432 --> 00:22:18,234


Marc Preston: talented as well.



609


00:22:18,805 --> 00:22:20,170


Marc Preston: But, so, so do you start.



610


00:22:20,190 --> 00:22:22,508


Marc Preston: Are you still recognized for that Of the



611


00:22:22,548 --> 00:22:23,351


Marc Preston: things you've done?



612


00:22:23,391 --> 00:22:25,500


Marc Preston: when people meet you, what is it that they



613


00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:27,407


Marc Preston: like immediately jump to?



614


00:22:27,547 --> 00:22:29,853


Marc Preston: or when it comes to things on your resume?



615


00:22:29,933 --> 00:22:32,932


Fabiana Udenio: It's so hard Sometimes you sometimes you



616


00:22:32,952 --> 00:22:34,320


Fabiana Udenio: look familiar and you don't want to go



617


00:22:34,380 --> 00:22:36,632


Fabiana Udenio: through your resume because you're just



618


00:22:36,652 --> 00:22:38,381


Fabiana Udenio: going to start going and then maybe they



619


00:22:38,421 --> 00:22:39,807


Fabiana Udenio: know you because you were shopping in the



620


00:22:39,827 --> 00:22:41,012


Fabiana Udenio: same Marcet or something.



621


00:22:42,947 --> 00:22:45,311


Fabiana Udenio: So the thing that for a while it was summer



622


00:22:45,331 --> 00:22:50,725


Fabiana Udenio: school and then it was awesome powers, so



623


00:22:50,845 --> 00:22:53,990


Fabiana Udenio: that's probably the one that.



624


00:22:56,013 --> 00:23:01,220


Fabiana Udenio: And when I'm, when I'm not dressed up or no



625


00:23:01,260 --> 00:23:03,349


Fabiana Udenio: makeup or anything, people kind of they



626


00:23:03,369 --> 00:23:05,975


Fabiana Udenio: can't quite place it because I look so



627


00:23:06,035 --> 00:23:06,376


Fabiana Udenio: different.



628


00:23:07,645 --> 00:23:11,398


Fabiana Udenio: So I mean I look, yes, so so natural that



629


00:23:11,438 --> 00:23:13,585


Fabiana Udenio: they can't quite put two and two together



630


00:23:13,685 --> 00:23:14,147


Fabiana Udenio: with that.



631


00:23:15,485 --> 00:23:19,514


Fabiana Udenio: And then some people more recently were



632


00:23:19,574 --> 00:23:21,885


Fabiana Udenio: very, very big fans of Jane Divergent, so



633


00:23:21,925 --> 00:23:27,368


Fabiana Udenio: that had a really loyal following And so



634


00:23:27,408 --> 00:23:29,895


Fabiana Udenio: they were thinking of me.



635


00:23:30,778 --> 00:23:32,222


Fabiana Udenio: They were thinking about that one when they



636


00:23:32,262 --> 00:23:33,888


Fabiana Udenio: were, when they were seeing me.



637


00:23:35,405 --> 00:23:36,830


Marc Preston: Or is there a preference you've had over



638


00:23:36,850 --> 00:23:37,151


Marc Preston: the years?



639


00:23:37,192 --> 00:23:39,279


Marc Preston: since you have had so many years of



640


00:23:39,649 --> 00:23:40,804


Marc Preston: experience, different kind of projects?



641


00:23:40,945 --> 00:23:42,612


Marc Preston: Do you prefer the comedy thing or do you



642


00:23:42,633 --> 00:23:45,364


Marc Preston: prefer more dramatic roles, or is it really



643


00:23:45,384 --> 00:23:46,509


Marc Preston: making that much of a difference to you?



644


00:23:47,005 --> 00:23:47,970


Fabiana Udenio: I prefer drama.



645


00:23:48,565 --> 00:23:52,073


Fabiana Udenio: I think comedy is really hard because you



646


00:23:52,153 --> 00:23:54,137


Fabiana Udenio: never know until you see with an audience



647


00:23:54,157 --> 00:23:55,568


Fabiana Udenio: whether it works or not.



648


00:23:57,066 --> 00:24:00,555


Fabiana Udenio: But I have a good sense of humor and I've



649


00:24:00,575 --> 00:24:01,597


Fabiana Udenio: done a lot of work in comedy.



650


00:24:01,625 --> 00:24:02,884


Fabiana Udenio: I've done a lot of work in sitcoms.



651


00:24:02,945 --> 00:24:05,991


Fabiana Udenio: I mean I was able to survive as an actor



652


00:24:06,352 --> 00:24:09,399


Fabiana Udenio: doing a lot of sitcoms comedy because it's



653


00:24:09,525 --> 00:24:11,853


Fabiana Udenio: hard to find a woman at the time.



654


00:24:12,565 --> 00:24:14,228


Fabiana Udenio: If you're attractive and you can do comedy,



655


00:24:14,248 --> 00:24:17,875


Fabiana Udenio: you can kind of find a niche.



656


00:24:20,725 --> 00:24:24,794


Fabiana Udenio: So I've abused that.



657


00:24:26,886 --> 00:24:31,158


Fabiana Udenio: But my essence is more for the drama thing.



658


00:24:31,746 --> 00:24:33,694


Marc Preston: Well, actually the first episode of Foo Bar,



659


00:24:34,176 --> 00:24:36,505

00:24:52,430 --> 00:24:52,772


Marc Preston: attention.



668


00:24:54,208 --> 00:24:55,612

674


00:25:06,742 --> 00:25:08,229


Fabiana Udenio: time I did put family first.



675


00:25:09,426 --> 00:25:16,736


Fabiana Udenio: I had to sort of prioritize how to do that



676


00:25:16,877 --> 00:25:18,599


Fabiana Udenio: if you want to delegate parenthood or if



677


00:25:18,639 --> 00:25:19,681


Fabiana Udenio: you want to do it yourself.



678


00:25:20,067 --> 00:25:20,871

Marc Preston: looking at what's next.



685


00:25:31,709 --> 00:25:36,048


Fabiana Udenio: My son is on the autism spectrum, so that's



686


00:25:36,068 --> 00:25:37,671


Fabiana Udenio: why he took a little bit more involvement



687


00:25:38,452 --> 00:25:43,599


Fabiana Udenio: on my side to allow him to blossom and grow.



688


00:25:43,619 --> 00:25:45,067


Fabiana Udenio: Especially at the beginning, early



689


00:25:45,087 --> 00:25:48,007

690


00:25:48,048 --> 00:25:50,113


Fabiana Udenio: that that was going to be my priority.



691


00:25:52,125 --> 00:25:54,345

00:27:02,285 --> 00:27:04,755


Fabiana Udenio: involving him too much on sort of the



726


00:27:04,815 --> 00:27:07,083

00:35:16,265 --> 00:35:19,854


Fabiana Udenio: I did like the professional quality of the



976


00:35:19,935 --> 00:35:20,295


Fabiana Udenio: business.



977


00:35:21,085 --> 00:35:22,410


Fabiana Udenio: I liked the.



978


00:35:23,765 --> 00:35:25,426


Fabiana Udenio: It's an unpredictable business, but when I



979


00:35:25,486 --> 00:35:28,332


Fabiana Udenio: was growing up in Italy, there was a lot of



980


00:35:28,393 --> 00:35:31,326


Fabiana Udenio: nepotism and a lot of oh my God, talk about



981


00:35:31,346 --> 00:35:31,707


Fabiana Udenio: me too.



982


00:35:32,405 --> 00:35:35,778


Fabiana Udenio: You multiply that You, you, you



983


00:35:36,038 --> 00:35:37,321


Fabiana Udenio: exponentially in Italy.



984


00:35:37,782 --> 00:35:40,407


Fabiana Udenio: So I didn't like they just didn't make any.



985


00:35:40,488 --> 00:35:42,347


Fabiana Udenio: Most of the times Auditions didn't matter



986


00:35:42,367 --> 00:35:44,058


Fabiana Udenio: and it's who you know, how do you know them,



987


00:35:44,138 --> 00:35:45,463


Fabiana Udenio: and and all of that.



988


00:35:45,684 --> 00:35:48,815


Fabiana Udenio: It really didn't fly well for me here.



989


00:35:49,256 --> 00:35:51,684


Fabiana Udenio: I was finding that I was more appreciated



990


00:35:51,764 --> 00:35:55,104


Fabiana Udenio: and respected, although it wasn't my life



991


00:35:55,204 --> 00:35:55,887


Fabiana Udenio: and funny enough.



992


00:35:55,927 --> 00:35:57,473


Fabiana Udenio: So every time I would go I would work a



993


00:35:57,514 --> 00:36:00,203


Fabiana Udenio: little bit But but it didn't really click.



994


00:36:00,263 --> 00:36:01,607


Fabiana Udenio: Or I would have some great audition and



995


00:36:01,748 --> 00:36:03,173


Fabiana Udenio: somebody else would get it because there



996


00:36:03,193 --> 00:36:06,160


Fabiana Udenio: were this or that And so that kind of stung



997


00:36:06,220 --> 00:36:08,485


Fabiana Udenio: me and here it was more predictable.



998


00:36:08,505 --> 00:36:09,848


Fabiana Udenio: It was more competitive and more



999


00:36:09,868 --> 00:36:10,309


Fabiana Udenio: predictable.



Speaker:

00:36:10,335 --> 00:36:13,865


Fabiana Udenio: So I liked the business aspect and the fact



Speaker:

00:36:13,905 --> 00:36:19,982


Fabiana Udenio: that I Was respected for What it was your



Speaker:

00:36:20,023 --> 00:36:21,929


Fabiana Udenio: audition for things, and over there you



Speaker:

00:36:21,989 --> 00:36:22,230


Fabiana Udenio: don't.



Speaker:

00:36:22,450 --> 00:36:23,835


Fabiana Udenio: Oh, it did, it's different now.



Speaker:

00:36:24,116 --> 00:36:33,359


Marc Preston: Well, Well, you see, here it's, you know



Speaker:

00:36:34,061 --> 00:36:34,161


Marc Preston: it's.



Speaker:

00:36:34,422 --> 00:36:35,825


Marc Preston: It's really interesting the way things have



Speaker:

00:36:35,865 --> 00:36:38,256


Marc Preston: evolved, because when you're young You're



Speaker:

00:36:38,296 --> 00:36:40,661


Marc Preston: teens or early 20s It was different than



Speaker:

00:36:40,701 --> 00:36:40,962


Marc Preston: now.



Speaker:

00:36:41,062 --> 00:36:43,908


Marc Preston: If you have two actors of equal talent but



Speaker:

00:36:44,028 --> 00:36:47,491


Marc Preston: one has 20,000 people follow on Instagram,



Speaker:

00:36:47,511 --> 00:36:50,279


Marc Preston: another one has About 10 million, that's



Speaker:

00:36:50,299 --> 00:36:51,081


Marc Preston: gonna factor in.



Speaker:

00:36:51,141 --> 00:36:52,604


Marc Preston: It's a whole different world than it used



Speaker:

00:36:52,624 --> 00:36:54,488


Marc Preston: to be and I can't imagine having to be an



Speaker:

00:36:54,568 --> 00:36:57,079


Marc Preston: actor and working nonstop and keeping up



Speaker:

00:36:57,099 --> 00:36:58,685


Marc Preston: with social media and all that is.



Speaker:

00:37:03,677 --> 00:37:05,524


Fabiana Udenio: It's so high coffee just thinking about it



Speaker:

00:37:10,155 --> 00:37:10,657


Fabiana Udenio: Mentioning.



Speaker:

00:37:11,460 --> 00:37:13,869


Fabiana Udenio: And then I try hard and then I see someone



Speaker:

00:37:13,889 --> 00:37:16,557


Fabiana Udenio: else doing something so creative And I go



Speaker:

00:37:16,597 --> 00:37:17,399


Fabiana Udenio: how do you do that?



Speaker:

00:37:17,460 --> 00:37:18,322


Fabiana Udenio: and then I do it wrong.



Speaker:

00:37:18,342 --> 00:37:22,477


Fabiana Udenio: I mean, it's really hard and I Enjoy it.



Speaker:

00:37:22,578 --> 00:37:25,325


Fabiana Udenio: It is addictive and you've got to learn.



Speaker:

00:37:25,345 --> 00:37:26,207


Fabiana Udenio: You have to be open.



Speaker:

00:37:26,367 --> 00:37:29,320


Fabiana Udenio: But There is something sort of



Speaker:

00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:32,086


Fabiana Udenio: contradictory to being an actor and getting



Speaker:

00:37:32,206 --> 00:37:36,462


Fabiana Udenio: out of yourself, to having to talk about



Speaker:

00:37:36,482 --> 00:37:37,946


Fabiana Udenio: what you have for breakfast and just



Speaker:

00:37:38,026 --> 00:37:40,855


Fabiana Udenio: self-indulging, just everything that to me.



Speaker:

00:37:41,359 --> 00:37:43,055


Fabiana Udenio: But I'd rather not, i'd rather you know.



Speaker:

00:37:43,055 --> 00:37:45,384


Marc Preston: So yeah, there's that, that the mystique of



Speaker:

00:37:45,459 --> 00:37:46,276


Marc Preston: the performer.



Speaker:

00:37:46,351 --> 00:37:48,207


Marc Preston: That I think makes like you look at that a



Speaker:

00:37:48,281 --> 00:37:50,721


Marc Preston: denier or Pacino or those guys They're.



Speaker:

00:37:50,841 --> 00:37:51,523


Marc Preston: You don't see them on.



Speaker:

00:37:51,823 --> 00:37:53,367


Marc Preston: I don't assume they're on social media a



Speaker:

00:37:53,407 --> 00:37:56,021


Marc Preston: lot, but it's.



Speaker:

00:37:56,121 --> 00:37:57,755


Marc Preston: It's kind of like something we want.



Speaker:

00:37:57,795 --> 00:37:59,324


Marc Preston: I mean, we want a little bit more of the



Speaker:

00:37:59,384 --> 00:38:01,335


Marc Preston: person than just the two hours in the film



Speaker:

00:38:01,756 --> 00:38:03,723


Marc Preston: But at the same time we still like that



Speaker:

00:38:03,743 --> 00:38:04,486


Marc Preston: mystique being there.



Speaker:

00:38:04,526 --> 00:38:05,831


Fabiana Udenio: I think maybe that's part of our



Speaker:

00:38:05,871 --> 00:38:08,378


Fabiana Udenio: personalities I'm not sure, and it's not



Speaker:

00:38:08,438 --> 00:38:10,082


Fabiana Udenio: something that it's, it's not that much



Speaker:

00:38:10,162 --> 00:38:10,262


Fabiana Udenio: It's.



Speaker:

00:38:10,443 --> 00:38:12,948


Fabiana Udenio: it's more work than actually acting to have



Speaker:

00:38:13,008 --> 00:38:16,323


Fabiana Udenio: to Think about that's actually tedious for



Speaker:

00:38:16,363 --> 00:38:19,593


Fabiana Udenio: me to have to post and tag and repost, and



Speaker:

00:38:19,633 --> 00:38:22,503


Fabiana Udenio: it's, it's fun And and so you're making me



Speaker:

00:38:22,543 --> 00:38:24,189


Fabiana Udenio: feel so good right now because I have to do



Speaker:

00:38:24,209 --> 00:38:25,494


Fabiana Udenio: that with with this show and the other



Speaker:

00:38:25,694 --> 00:38:26,318


Fabiana Udenio: things I do.



Speaker:

00:38:26,399 --> 00:38:26,801


Marc Preston: I have to do.



Speaker:

00:38:26,862 --> 00:38:27,788


Marc Preston: I'm like, oh my god, I just don't want to



Speaker:

00:38:27,808 --> 00:38:28,815


Marc Preston: do what do I say?



Speaker:

00:38:29,075 --> 00:38:29,757


Marc Preston: I don't know I do.



Speaker:

00:38:29,777 --> 00:38:30,760


Marc Preston: What picture do I post?



Speaker:

00:38:30,820 --> 00:38:33,025


Marc Preston: I mean, i you know, in my dog, my 17 year



Speaker:

00:38:33,065 --> 00:38:34,168


Marc Preston: old, with the interesting thing is she



Speaker:

00:38:34,215 --> 00:38:35,298


Marc Preston: Doesn't want me taking her picture or



Speaker:

00:38:35,359 --> 00:38:36,302


Marc Preston: posting it anywhere.



Speaker:

00:38:36,382 --> 00:38:37,646


Marc Preston: She only looks, she doesn't post.



Speaker:

00:38:38,036 --> 00:38:39,579


Marc Preston: She's the anti-teenager in that way.



Speaker:

00:38:39,599 --> 00:38:41,784


Marc Preston: I was thinking the anti-influencer I want



Speaker:

00:38:41,824 --> 00:38:45,218


Marc Preston: to be an anti-influencer, which would make



Speaker:

00:38:45,278 --> 00:38:47,445


Marc Preston: you in a way, ironically, an influencer.



Speaker:

00:38:51,458 --> 00:38:53,954


Marc Preston: But one thing I'm curious about with foobar



Speaker:

00:38:53,974 --> 00:38:56,442


Marc Preston: now I want to know how that project came to



Speaker:

00:38:56,502 --> 00:38:57,806


Marc Preston: you, or did you audition for it?



Speaker:

00:38:57,835 --> 00:38:58,338


Marc Preston: Did somebody?



Speaker:

00:38:58,378 --> 00:38:59,625


Marc Preston: does somebody reach out to you say, hey, we



Speaker:

00:38:59,645 --> 00:38:59,886


Marc Preston: have this.



Speaker:

00:39:00,148 --> 00:39:01,455


Marc Preston: I think you're right for this thing.



Speaker:

00:39:01,636 --> 00:39:02,739


Marc Preston: How did that come together for you?



Speaker:

00:39:02,799 --> 00:39:06,998


Fabiana Udenio: It was an audition and it was Called at the



Speaker:

00:39:07,038 --> 00:39:08,542


Fabiana Udenio: time the untitled honor Schwarzman a



Speaker:

00:39:08,562 --> 00:39:13,918


Fabiana Udenio: project, and I was immediately Curious and



Speaker:

00:39:13,998 --> 00:39:14,761


Fabiana Udenio: attracted to it.



Speaker:

00:39:14,822 --> 00:39:18,540


Fabiana Udenio: And then There were two long scenes that I



Speaker:

00:39:18,580 --> 00:39:20,463


Fabiana Udenio: had to prepare for the audition and it was



Speaker:

00:39:20,523 --> 00:39:23,068


Fabiana Udenio: a self tape because it's the age of COVID



Speaker:

00:39:23,148 --> 00:39:25,439


Fabiana Udenio: and that's When it was going on.



Speaker:

00:39:25,459 --> 00:39:28,289


Fabiana Udenio: You know you don't need anybody and so



Speaker:

00:39:28,309 --> 00:39:28,790


Fabiana Udenio: would you.



Speaker:

00:39:28,811 --> 00:39:30,095


Marc Preston: You know an LA and LA.



Speaker:

00:39:30,255 --> 00:39:31,681


Marc Preston: That's got to be nice because you don't



Speaker:

00:39:31,701 --> 00:39:32,805


Marc Preston: have to go through driving.



Speaker:

00:39:33,066 --> 00:39:34,713


Marc Preston: And then you got to make sure that



Speaker:

00:39:34,773 --> 00:39:36,198


Marc Preston: everything's shot Right with the lighting.



Speaker:

00:39:36,218 --> 00:39:36,921


Marc Preston: You want to look at it?



Speaker:

00:39:37,062 --> 00:39:37,484


Marc Preston: look nice.



Speaker:

00:39:38,797 --> 00:39:40,363


Marc Preston: Do you like this self-tape thing or do you



Speaker:

00:39:40,443 --> 00:39:41,407


Marc Preston: do prefer to be in the room?



Speaker:

00:39:41,588 --> 00:39:42,210


Fabiana Udenio: I didn't.



Speaker:

00:39:42,351 --> 00:39:43,315


Fabiana Udenio: I'm getting used to that too.



Speaker:

00:39:43,455 --> 00:39:44,297


Fabiana Udenio: I didn't it.



Speaker:

00:39:44,798 --> 00:39:47,124


Fabiana Udenio: It's like acting in a vacuum a little bit.



Speaker:

00:39:47,204 --> 00:39:48,608


Fabiana Udenio: I, you know it's like, you don't you know



Speaker:

00:39:48,648 --> 00:39:48,788


Fabiana Udenio: like.



Speaker:

00:39:49,436 --> 00:39:51,300


Fabiana Udenio: But there are some good things too, you



Speaker:

00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:51,460


Fabiana Udenio: know.



Speaker:

00:39:51,501 --> 00:39:52,282


Fabiana Udenio: You get to see what you.



Speaker:

00:39:52,403 --> 00:39:54,547


Fabiana Udenio: I used to obsess about what I did in the



Speaker:

00:39:54,608 --> 00:39:54,928


Fabiana Udenio: audition.



Speaker:

00:39:55,015 --> 00:39:55,859


Fabiana Udenio: How did I sound?



Speaker:

00:39:56,496 --> 00:39:57,478


Fabiana Udenio: What choices did I make?



Speaker:

00:39:57,519 --> 00:39:59,063


Fabiana Udenio: did I do what I thought I did?



Speaker:

00:39:59,123 --> 00:40:00,446


Fabiana Udenio: and then you forget because you're in the



Speaker:

00:40:00,486 --> 00:40:02,343


Fabiana Udenio: moment And now I know what I do.



Speaker:

00:40:02,866 --> 00:40:06,016


Fabiana Udenio: So in a way, it's a lot easier to I liked



Speaker:

00:40:06,096 --> 00:40:06,177


Fabiana Udenio: it.



Speaker:

00:40:06,237 --> 00:40:07,900


Fabiana Udenio: If they didn't get it, if they didn't



Speaker:

00:40:08,001 --> 00:40:09,484


Fabiana Udenio: choose me, you know it's their loss,



Speaker:

00:40:09,524 --> 00:40:11,147


Fabiana Udenio: because I like what I did or I could do



Speaker:

00:40:11,187 --> 00:40:11,668


Fabiana Udenio: better next.



Speaker:

00:40:12,798 --> 00:40:15,005


Fabiana Udenio: So it's, it's a little bit more control,



Speaker:

00:40:16,537 --> 00:40:21,482


Fabiana Udenio: but I miss The in-person meetings.



Speaker:

00:40:21,582 --> 00:40:23,911


Fabiana Udenio: But so this the way football came about was



Speaker:

00:40:24,072 --> 00:40:27,281


Fabiana Udenio: a self tape, and and they gave us, they



Speaker:

00:40:27,301 --> 00:40:29,526


Fabiana Udenio: gave me some time to prepare, which was



Speaker:

00:40:29,606 --> 00:40:34,219


Fabiana Udenio: nice, and I immediately liked the character



Speaker:

00:40:34,299 --> 00:40:36,524


Fabiana Udenio: because it had a lot in common with some of



Speaker:

00:40:36,584 --> 00:40:39,999


Fabiana Udenio: that of who I am, unlike many other



Speaker:

00:40:40,019 --> 00:40:41,465


Fabiana Udenio: characters that I've done in the past



Speaker:

00:40:42,495 --> 00:40:44,883


Fabiana Udenio: romantic side, her vulnerability in



Speaker:

00:40:44,923 --> 00:40:47,780


Fabiana Udenio: strength, and The fact that she puts family



Speaker:

00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:55,297


Fabiana Udenio: first, the fact that She, she's passionate



Speaker:

00:40:55,517 --> 00:40:58,446


Fabiana Udenio: and unpredictable many things that I felt



Speaker:

00:40:58,486 --> 00:41:01,621


Fabiana Udenio: like They were, that I could draw from my



Speaker:

00:41:01,681 --> 00:41:03,226


Fabiana Udenio: own personal life, so that was nice.



Speaker:

00:41:03,816 --> 00:41:05,181


Marc Preston: Well, like I said, i've only seen the first



Speaker:

00:41:05,261 --> 00:41:06,766


Marc Preston: episode, but it seems like this is somebody,



Speaker:

00:41:06,807 --> 00:41:08,372


Marc Preston: a character, who really is holding their



Speaker:

00:41:08,492 --> 00:41:09,275


Marc Preston: own with short snagger.



Speaker:

00:41:09,455 --> 00:41:12,463


Marc Preston: She's actually in some way has, as my



Speaker:

00:41:12,483 --> 00:41:14,347


Marc Preston: people say, chutzpah, yeah, no she's, you



Speaker:

00:41:14,408 --> 00:41:14,528


Marc Preston: know.

Speaker:

00:51:28,256 --> 00:51:28,838


Fabiana Udenio: law degree.



Speaker:

00:51:29,711 --> 00:51:31,335

00:51:33,610 --> 00:51:36,840

Fabiana Udenio: be good.



Speaker:

00:51:37,490 --> 00:51:38,517

00:51:40,067 --> 00:51:40,450


Marc Preston: interesting to me.



Speaker:

00:51:40,731 --> 00:51:43,881


Marc Preston: I think that's being able to what you could



Speaker:

00:51:43,902 --> 00:51:45,045


Marc Preston: do for other people potentially.



Speaker:

00:51:45,065 --> 00:51:46,310


Marc Preston: I think that's a nice thing being able to



Speaker:

00:51:46,330 --> 00:51:46,430


Marc Preston: argue.



Speaker:

00:51:47,052 --> 00:51:48,671


Marc Preston: I think Tom Hanks said it best He wouldn't



Speaker:

00:51:48,691 --> 00:51:49,614


Marc Preston: want to do it because it's like doing



Speaker:

00:51:49,674 --> 00:51:51,018


Marc Preston: homework for a living, you know.



Speaker:

00:51:51,450 --> 00:51:54,238


Fabiana Udenio: True, but but it would give me such, you



Speaker:

00:51:54,278 --> 00:51:57,949


Fabiana Udenio: know, the ability to not necessarily



Speaker:

00:51:58,009 --> 00:52:00,440


Fabiana Udenio: practice it, so that mostly I was jealous



Speaker:

00:52:00,480 --> 00:52:01,184


Fabiana Udenio: of a law degree.



Speaker:

00:52:01,244 --> 00:52:02,329


Fabiana Udenio: not maybe, i don't know if I would make it



Speaker:

00:52:02,349 --> 00:52:03,815


Fabiana Udenio: good Maybe a judge.



Speaker:

00:52:04,076 --> 00:52:05,442


Fabiana Udenio: I would make a good judge because I'm very



Speaker:

00:52:05,522 --> 00:52:07,450


Fabiana Udenio: fair, but that's a lot of work.



Speaker:

00:52:07,894 --> 00:52:09,147


Marc Preston: They have those judge shows in the middle



Speaker:

00:52:09,187 --> 00:52:09,430

Marc Preston: ideas.



Speaker:

00:52:11,871 --> 00:52:13,976


Marc Preston: If you were a judge, I'm just saying that



Speaker:

00:52:13,996 --> 00:52:15,681


Marc Preston: could be one where you could put your own



Speaker:

00:52:15,721 --> 00:52:16,202


Marc Preston: spin on it.



Speaker:

00:52:16,450 --> 00:52:18,006

Speaker:

00:52:44,851 --> 00:52:47,577


Fabiana Udenio: And for me to have known it at an early age,



Speaker:

00:52:47,637 --> 00:52:49,241


Fabiana Udenio: i didn't have to go through that confusion



Speaker:

00:52:49,281 --> 00:52:50,343

Fabiana Udenio: or not.



Speaker:

00:52:55,135 --> 00:52:57,450

Marc Preston: If you were to jump into a DeLorean you



Speaker:

00:53:13,352 --> 00:53:15,195

Speaker:

00:53:15,235 --> 00:53:18,379


Marc Preston: travel back in time, you know, and to when



Speaker:

00:53:18,399 --> 00:53:20,341


Marc Preston: you're 16 years old, and a piece of advice



Speaker:

00:53:20,361 --> 00:53:23,365


Marc Preston: you would give yourself either to make the



Speaker:

00:53:23,465 --> 00:53:25,768


Marc Preston: moment you were living in better somehow or

00:53:25,848 --> 00:53:27,450


Marc Preston: to put you on a better track for the future.
