Future Projects…

Myself and my acting buddies keep ourselves busy in between acting jobs by getting together and shooting some little sketches.  It’s all very casual and we do it for the craic…

As well as acting, I love messing around with editing software and use this as an opportunity to learn about the software and gain more experience about that aspect of film making.  I think it helps as an actor too, to know what is involved behind the scenes, if ya pardon the pun. 

I have also started doing a bit of directing which I am definitely keen on doing again. 

At the moment, I am penning a little sit-com (episodes only like about three minutes long) which is going to be set in my flat!  It is about three flat mates living in London.  I haven’t written any scripts previously so it’s all new to me and i don’t know how it will turn out.

I am planning  to shoot the first episode soon!  I will be playing the part of one of the flatmates, I don’t know yet who will shoot it as I really want to shoot it myself but I want to be in it too, so it may be a joint venture.  When it is completed, I am going to post it on here and create an online mini soap opera for your viewing pleasure, so please check back and tell me what you think.  Your input will be taken on board… (if it’s constructive!)

Here is a sketch that I shot at one of our little gatherings recently.  Tanya Mackenzie & myself directed it.  The Actors are Kim Falconer & Tom Shepherd.  I edited it with Adobe Premiere software. 

Let me know what you think anyway…

And don’t forget to check back to see my mini soap!!

Toodle pip for now!
