Within a year she had already been on multiple national TV commercials and a series regular on a show on Comedy Central.[clarification needed] She took many acting and modeling courses to further her career and after graduating from high school she moved to Los Angeles, California, to be a professional model and actress. Since living in LA she has appeared in numerous fashion, commercial and swimsuit campaigns as a model and actress. She has worked on sets from ER to Gossip Girl and with producer Jon Avnet (exec producer of Black Swan).[3]
First assistant director of the film Twilight, Jamie Marshall, stated that Weaver was a chameleon of all sorts with a forever changing face from one shot to the other. "I was so pleased to find that she is incredibly normal, and has a wonderfully kind of dark, perverse sense of humor. She added depth,sensibility and spontaneity to my work and I would jump to the chance to collaborate again."[citation needed]
