During 2008, she continued pursuing auditions and acted in several local commercials for Newport Aquarium[7] and made a short appearance as an Italian girl in the hit film Angels & Demons.[8]

Bravo acted in two short films, Lost Sheep (A.K.A. The Cafeteria) and Washed Up; and in the Nickelodeon television series, Big Time Rush and the Fox television series, Red Band Society.
