ART by Yasmina Reza

This play is a French language that premiered on 28 October 1994. It is a comedy that raises questions about art and friendship, concerns three long-time friends, Serge, Marc, and Yvan. Here we have the first Salvo from Marc regarding Serge’s purchase.

Coriolanus by William Shakespeare

Coriolanus is a tragedy by William Shakespeare, written between 1605 and 1608. The play was based on the life of the Roman leader Caius Marcius Coriolanus.  This is my take on the speech before before the Coriolanus death.

Cop by James B. Harris

Cop is a 1988 film starring James Woods and Lesley Ann Warren and based on the book Blood on the Moon by James Ellroy. The screenplay was written by James B. Harris. This is one of my favourite monologues of all time.

MUSIC VIDEOS

It can be a great deal of fun featuring in Music Videos.  Here is a selection of some of my favourite jobs.

HERZBLUT – Deine Schuld

Produced by Toby Wulff Filmproduktion in Berlin. The reason it was a lot of fun is that I couldn’t learn the text to lipsynch so I said, let me do my thing. You can see what happens when you let the dog off the lead occasionally.

Candice Gordon – Barrel of a Gun Music

Working with this very talented singer-songwriter Candice Gordon in a one set scenery, proved to be a lot of fun. It was nice to choreograph a sort of micro-dance routine.

FRASH – Here I Go Again

Here is a blast from the past! What’s Up Doc was the last appearance of Frash. It features the fantastic vocals of Johnny Spurling. Here I Go Again even gets a mention on Wikipedia.

HERZBLUT – Wir Rasten Aus

Wir Rasten Aus was another music video from Herzblut. The whole day’s shoot was filled with madness and beer! Working with a band of guys that play the kind of music I love is always a bonus.

ARYA LEE – Golden Sword

It was a pleasure working with Arya Lee, an incredible writer and performer. Playing the role of an Asylum Director, I had the opportunity of doing something I never thought I’d do, lip-synch to a Rap Song!

E CASTING

eCasting – love it or hate it you have to do it!

As the world changes and technology runs riot, it is less necessary to attend a casting and more important to do a good eCasting. Smartphones have helped with this – BIG TIME! However, don’t use a smartphone. But I do have lights, camera, sound and editing kit.

I love the fact that I can do the casting in my home, this rather than taking 2 hours traveling and waiting time. Mind you, the crazy request you get as part of a casting never changes.
