I was like, no, no, really, 0:10:24.400 --> 0:10:25.559 I don't need this Barbie thing. 0:10:25.800 --> 0:10:28.440 So what was what was the we've we've heard So 0:10:28.520 --> 0:10:30.480 we've talked to so many people that have done dcoms, 0:10:30.559 --> 0:10:33.600 especially if they have something physical to do during the dcom, 0:10:33.640 --> 0:10:35.240 Like we talked to the people who did Brink or 0:10:35.280 --> 0:10:38.319 things like that where they had to roller blade or 0:10:38.360 --> 0:10:40.880 sing or dance or something during the audition. Did you 0:10:41.000 --> 0:10:43.240 have to do anything physical for the audition? 0:10:43.600 --> 0:10:45.880 Yes, I mean I not the actual first audition. You know, 0:10:45.920 --> 0:10:48.960 there's the process of I go in and there's forty 0:10:48.960 --> 0:10:50.800 other girls in the room. You get your call back, 0:10:50.800 --> 0:10:52.960 and you go on and there's like fifteen other girls, 0:10:53.000 --> 0:10:54.800 and then you have a producer Sasha, it's just you 0:10:54.840 --> 0:10:56.880 and four girls. And then they're kind of mixing matching you, 0:10:57.720 --> 0:11:00.400 and you know the old like can you I skate? 0:11:00.800 --> 0:11:04.880 And it's like sure, my life And I was like yeah, 0:11:05.840 --> 0:11:08.120 and like my brain, I don't know what I was thinking. 0:11:08.240 --> 0:11:11.040 I said pretty good, pretty well, you know, I told 0:11:11.040 --> 0:11:12.439 them I could ice skate, not just ice skate, but 0:11:12.480 --> 0:11:14.320 I could do it well, which was I don't know 0:11:14.360 --> 0:11:17.439 what I was thinking, but I grew up doing gymnastics. 0:11:17.480 --> 0:11:19.240 I was like a big gymnast, so I was like, 0:11:19.440 --> 0:11:23.440 how hard going to be totally different? It's not at 0:11:23.440 --> 0:11:25.760 all the same. And I just thought, you know, because 0:11:25.960 --> 0:11:27.760 you're told, like when you're like, if they ask you 0:11:27.760 --> 0:11:32.120 if you do something, you yes, yes, absolutely yes. And 0:11:32.200 --> 0:11:33.720 then I just I, you know, they were like, okay, 0:11:33.720 --> 0:11:36.640 well now you know it's you and one other girl, 0:11:37.200 --> 0:11:39.520 and they wanted to test you on the ice next week. 0:11:39.679 --> 0:11:44.439 And I was like, so, I like, I went every 0:11:44.440 --> 0:11:47.120 single day to this. It was oh god, what was 0:11:47.120 --> 0:11:50.360 this place called Iceland? I think it was called I 0:11:50.400 --> 0:11:53.079 want to say it was like your Chatsworth or something, Okay, 0:11:53.520 --> 0:11:57.199 and I went every day and I was so determined 0:11:57.240 --> 0:11:59.199 and I was there from opening the clothes and by 0:11:59.240 --> 0:12:02.000 the time that I I had to skate from them, 0:12:02.040 --> 0:12:07.720 I could like fake skating. So worked out on the ice. 0:12:07.760 --> 0:12:09.640 They were testing out a couple of like my love 0:12:09.720 --> 0:12:12.240 interests on the ice as well, which was strange because 0:12:12.240 --> 0:12:14.400 I was thirteen and they looked so much older to me. 0:12:14.520 --> 0:12:19.680 You know, yes, yeah, I somehow, you know, I faked 0:12:19.679 --> 0:12:20.360 it and I made it. 0:12:21.280 --> 0:12:25.080 Well, thank god, because you ended up being in the 0:12:25.080 --> 0:12:31.160 film that immortalized the tagline. She shoots, she scores, she accessorizes. 0:12:32.040 --> 0:12:34.960 I realized, like even when I was thirteen and they're like, 0:12:34.960 --> 0:12:37.160 here's the poster, showed it to me and I was 0:12:37.200 --> 0:12:44.600 like what tagline? Even at thirteen, I was like. 0:12:46.800 --> 0:12:50.160 Yeah, I will say it's not one of their best 0:12:50.280 --> 0:12:51.240 that they've had. 0:12:51.960 --> 0:12:54.439 No, there's been better. 0:12:54.920 --> 0:12:57.079 Yes, but you definitely can't sizes. 0:12:57.480 --> 0:13:01.160 Yeah, you get the idea they went. 0:13:01.000 --> 0:13:03.560 Through before they landed on that. 0:13:03.440 --> 0:13:06.720 One throw away? 0:13:07.120 --> 0:13:11.640 What oh god? Can you imagine the other options? 0:13:11.920 --> 0:13:12.280 I know? 0:13:13.240 --> 0:13:17.720 So did now we hear? Did you train with an Olympian? 0:13:17.920 --> 0:13:21.920 Was it Sarah? 0:13:21.960 --> 0:13:26.800 She choreographed the Olympics in like the Olympic figure Skating 0:13:27.160 --> 0:13:29.120 intro and all that, I believe, and I think that 0:13:29.240 --> 0:13:34.600 was in it's probably two thousand right five, So she 0:13:34.679 --> 0:13:37.079 had just she was like a big name coming into it. 0:13:37.600 --> 0:13:40.960 When we first did it, U and she trained me 0:13:41.160 --> 0:13:43.320 for maybe a month and a half. 0:13:43.520 --> 0:13:43.880 Wow. 0:13:44.440 --> 0:13:48.640 We went to there's an ice skating rink in la 0:13:48.800 --> 0:13:51.960 Or in Bourbank called Pickwick. 0:13:52.240 --> 0:13:54.160 Yeah, also a bowling alley. 0:13:54.400 --> 0:13:56.280 Yeah, it's a bowling alley. Is it still there because 0:13:56.280 --> 0:13:57.920 I moved it's still there? 0:13:57.960 --> 0:13:59.720 Ye, pics totally still there. 0:14:01.440 --> 0:14:04.880 We trained there like every day, and man, I was 0:14:04.880 --> 0:14:07.000 in a wicked shape. You know, imagine being like thirteen, 0:14:07.040 --> 0:14:08.840 you're already in good shape and then you're skating every 0:14:08.880 --> 0:14:09.360 single day? 0:14:09.760 --> 0:14:13.320 Yeah, did it make you kind of fall in love 0:14:13.360 --> 0:14:14.280 with skating at all? 0:14:14.360 --> 0:14:14.480 Like? 0:14:14.559 --> 0:14:15.360 Were you going? 0:14:15.640 --> 0:14:16.000 You did? 0:14:16.160 --> 0:14:16.400 Yeah? 0:14:16.920 --> 0:14:19.200 Like it was I was. I grew up in gymnastics, 0:14:19.200 --> 0:14:21.040 so there was like it was that same kind of 0:14:21.080 --> 0:14:23.840 like vibe. You know, you go, what you got, your equipment, 0:14:23.960 --> 0:14:26.480 you show up. It's like exercise, you're trying to improve 0:14:26.520 --> 0:14:29.720 it something. There was just something really like special about it. 0:14:30.000 --> 0:14:32.280 I can people get attached to it from a very 0:14:32.320 --> 0:14:33.120 young age, you know. 0:14:33.640 --> 0:14:37.040 Yeah sure? Now shot in Canada, right. 0:14:37.200 --> 0:14:39.200 No, we shot in Salt Lake City, salt Like that's. 0:14:39.120 --> 0:14:41.160 What I meant. Okay, so you were in We were 0:14:41.160 --> 0:14:45.000 still there. The DCM coin flip, they're they're either shoot 0:14:45.080 --> 0:14:47.680 in Canada or they shooting Vancouver. 0:14:48.080 --> 0:14:49.920 Toronto, Vancouver or Salt Lake. 0:14:50.320 --> 0:14:52.680 It was a shooting schedule. Like, I mean, were you 0:14:52.760 --> 0:14:54.160 skating almost every day? 0:14:55.160 --> 0:14:58.080 Not every day? I think we kind of like, you know, 0:14:58.160 --> 0:15:00.200 if we were filming at an ice rink. We we're 0:15:00.320 --> 0:15:02.840 shooting at that ice rink for a couple of days 0:15:02.880 --> 0:15:05.160 or however long we were there. A lot of it 0:15:05.200 --> 0:15:08.400 was like at a school, and you know, like there 0:15:08.440 --> 0:15:10.640 was all that basis of I was like boarding at 0:15:10.640 --> 0:15:12.840 that school, so it was like there's a lot of 0:15:12.840 --> 0:15:16.160 that kind of stuff too. And obviously I had to 0:15:16.160 --> 0:15:19.560 do like a hockey camp too, because skating on hockey 0:15:19.560 --> 0:15:23.200 skates is like a completely different sport altogether than figure skating. 0:15:23.360 --> 0:15:27.640 Is it really I've never done I've only yeah, well 0:15:27.640 --> 0:15:30.880 I knew, I knew, but yeah, I don't. I mean, 0:15:30.920 --> 0:15:31.320 I don't. 0:15:31.840 --> 0:15:34.560 I would compare it to like skiing and snowboarding, you know, 0:15:34.640 --> 0:15:38.360 it's just good to say, totally different motions. With hockey skates, 0:15:38.360 --> 0:15:42.240 you're kind of like running walking almost you're skating. There's 0:15:42.240 --> 0:15:47.240 just it's more of like a dance, you know. Well, yeah, 0:15:47.280 --> 0:15:50.440 and then switching back and forth is like like at 0:15:50.440 --> 0:15:53.520 the age, I don't think I think I could do it. 0:15:53.560 --> 0:15:55.160 I think my brain would melt, you. 0:15:55.120 --> 0:15:57.440 Know, So do you think is it? Is it so difficult? 0:15:57.560 --> 0:15:59.040 One of the things we talked about during the movie 0:15:59.080 --> 0:16:01.120 was like, Okay, wait a minute, she's supposed to be 0:16:01.200 --> 0:16:04.240 like a competitive ice skater, but then they put her 0:16:04.240 --> 0:16:06.280 on hockey skates and she can't even stand. Isn't this 0:16:06.360 --> 0:16:09.240 kind of ridiculous? But it turns out no kind of accurate. 0:16:09.600 --> 0:16:11.960 I mean, it's a Disney movie. I don't know if 0:16:12.560 --> 0:16:15.360 like it is a little absurd, Like I'm sure at 0:16:15.400 --> 0:16:17.520 some point in a figure skater's life she tries on 0:16:17.600 --> 0:16:19.880 hockey skates. But I think you could argue that my 0:16:20.000 --> 0:16:24.320 character was so like prim and proper and prison like 0:16:24.320 --> 0:16:26.680 she had only seen figure skating the whole world her 0:16:26.720 --> 0:16:29.560 whole life, you know. I mean, it's it's not she 0:16:29.600 --> 0:16:32.680 might have been like, oh, hockey skates, you know, that 0:16:32.840 --> 0:16:35.560 big a thing. It's like, you know, growing up gymnastics. 0:16:35.560 --> 0:16:37.960 I never danced, you know, I never tried the whole 0:16:38.040 --> 0:16:40.640 dancing world, or like they're all so separate. 0:16:48.240 --> 0:16:49.920 What do they give you when you rent skates when 0:16:49.920 --> 0:16:53.160 you go like ice skating, Like, what do they give you? Yeah? 0:16:53.200 --> 0:16:54.720 Are those hockey skates? 0:16:55.600 --> 0:16:58.400 Either? I think it is either. Yeah. I think mostly 0:16:58.400 --> 0:17:00.720 they're gonna give you the one without the topic. 0:17:00.520 --> 0:17:03.120 Right, I mean, if you're like a beginner, beginner, it's 0:17:03.200 --> 0:17:07.880 like smarter to get hockey skates. I swear blades walking 0:17:08.440 --> 0:17:10.320 you can hold hug the side and like be on 0:17:10.359 --> 0:17:13.000 hockey skates easier, like you forget there's a tope pick 0:17:13.160 --> 0:17:15.679 or like the back blade on those skates. For a second, 0:17:15.680 --> 0:17:18.440 you're you're done, yes, yeah. 0:17:18.440 --> 0:17:20.679 Why I don't do that anymore because the rinks are 0:17:20.720 --> 0:17:23.560 always so small and there's so many people that do 0:17:23.640 --> 0:17:25.879 not know what they're doing. I just see like a 0:17:26.119 --> 0:17:28.480 leg coming in the air and like slice. 0:17:28.480 --> 0:17:32.000 Like you fall the cold hard eye, like it's like 0:17:32.560 --> 0:17:34.400 on the ground. It is painful. 0:17:34.640 --> 0:17:37.840 It is we're still learning how to snowboarder. Skiku, there 0:17:37.960 --> 0:17:43.800 is zero I mean it is okay, yeah, okay. 0:17:43.840 --> 0:17:48.440 So it's your your first big role. You're the lead 0:17:48.680 --> 0:17:51.280 in the film. What is it like the first day 0:17:51.400 --> 0:17:53.199 you step on set? I mean, what do you what 0:17:53.240 --> 0:17:55.960 are you thinking? When the first day you step on surreal? 0:17:56.080 --> 0:17:58.480 To me, it was like it was just like I 0:17:58.520 --> 0:18:00.240 couldn't believe it. I couldn't believe looking at a call 0:18:00.320 --> 0:18:02.520 sheet and seeing one and seeing my name, you know 0:18:02.600 --> 0:18:05.080 that to me was already I was I was never 0:18:05.240 --> 0:18:07.760 like I never took it for granted, you know, like 0:18:07.920 --> 0:18:09.360 to me, it was like I was still like this 0:18:09.720 --> 0:18:12.880 kid from Alpaso, and like I couldn't even believe it. 0:18:12.880 --> 0:18:15.040 It was it was just crazy to me. And I 0:18:15.320 --> 0:18:18.600 don't think I expected to show up and see such 0:18:18.640 --> 0:18:21.000 a big production. Like I don't know if I expected, 0:18:21.040 --> 0:18:22.760 like I had done one thing and it was like 0:18:22.760 --> 0:18:25.240 a short film, you know, and it was like a 0:18:25.240 --> 0:18:28.399 student independent film, and I think I expected to just 0:18:28.440 --> 0:18:30.440 show up, like not have trailers, and like, I don't 0:18:30.440 --> 0:18:32.879 know what. I was so young and I was just 0:18:33.000 --> 0:18:33.960 my mind was blown. 0:18:34.000 --> 0:18:34.159 You know. 0:18:34.200 --> 0:18:36.359 It was like there's catering and there's this and like 0:18:36.400 --> 0:18:38.320 they're renting out this entire place for us. Like I 0:18:38.359 --> 0:18:41.640 couldn't believe it. You know, we're in hindsight now, I'm like, yeah, 0:18:41.640 --> 0:18:45.800 it's Disney exactly, like of course they are. What do 0:18:45.840 --> 0:18:49.040 you yeah, but I it was like it was wild 0:18:49.080 --> 0:18:50.600 to me. I was just like to me, I was 0:18:50.680 --> 0:18:52.959 I was still you know, I was like fairly mature 0:18:52.960 --> 0:18:54.199 at that age, and I was like, just show up 0:18:54.240 --> 0:18:56.199
