GETTING UP TO DATE

Now we are in the Corona virus era, I have had time to catch up on things that I should have been doing. I am keeping busy with writing and devising my next short film which, of course, will be a while until everything gets back to some sort of normal. My last short film, The Drive, has been going around the festival season and has been accepted into quite a few festivals. For a first real effort, I am very happy with the response. I have attended a number of these film festivals but I was unable to go...

CATCH UP ON WHAT’S BEEN HAPPENING

I am sorry I have been neglecting this blog/diary. There has been a lot going on recently, mostly to do with ‘The Drive’ which has been selected in a number of film festivals and gaining a win at a film festival in West Virginia, USA. The Drive also was screened as part of the Edinburgh Fringe at the Nightpiece film festival. I was taking a film course in Edinburgh and also attended the film festival. It was quite an experience and everybody should try and go to the Edinburgh Film Festival. You are spoilt for choice for what to do....

LATEST NEWS – THE DRIVE

I am delighted to say that the private screening night went really well and we had a good turn out. Some of the cast and crew. Unfortunately everybody couldn’t come but we had a fair few guests as well and two of my patrons from www.patreon.com came as well. The film has been sent to lots of festivals and we have been accepted into three already. Cineshots are screening The Drive on the 11th June and they are having a Q & A and I will be attending. Check out their website. One of the screenings is included in the...

THE SCREENING

Well, we have done it, at last. You know it has taken a long time, what with all the set backs, finances and A levels. However, we are there. There will be a private screening of The Drive later this month and I am really excited. I have just started entering the film into film festivals and we have already had two acceptances. The next few months will be really exciting. I am already formulating ideas for my next short film. I leave school soon and I hope to dive back into my acting also. My agent is keen for...

NEWS

Here we are, back on the Artifarty page. It has been a while. However, I have been busy elsewhere. I have taken a break from acting whilst I was doing my school exams but in the next few months I will be back with a bang. I have been working on my own short film and although it has taken ages to complete, mainly because of raising funds, it is now completed and being sent to film festivals. Have a look at the new poster. The Drive, starring Todd Carty. The BFI has been booked for the official screening in...

WHAT’S GOING ON

Well folks, I know I have been a  bit quite again but things have been a bit hectic but not on the acting side. I have been going to a number of auditions and on several of them I have been down to the last knockings and then that ‘pencil in’ fades out.  Still, I won’t complain because at least I am being seen and my agent is still working his socks off. I have been rather busy though with my own short film, The Drive.  I have a page on @patreon.com which is a way of having people who...

THE PHYSICIAN IS NOW ON NETFLICKS

The Physician is now on Netflicks.  This is a really epic film and I played the young Rob Cole.  The older Rob Cole was played by Tom Payne.  The story is set in the 1th century when I young boy is  reluctantly adopted by a ‘healer’ after the death of his mother.   The boy has a gift and becomes a healer and travels to Persia disguised as a Jew at a medical school that will not admit Christians.   It is an epic story with a stellar cast and although it was shown all over the world, for some reason it...

MILLIE INBETWEEN

Again, I must apologise for the delay in new news.  I have been very busy putting together the production of my second short film ‘The Drive’.  More of that later. Last year, I did a couple of episode of Millie Inbetween which is filmed in Northern Ireland.   It is a very popular CBBC kids progaramme and has a big following.  This was Season 4 and I was introduced as a new character, Clifford. This was the first time  I attended filming now that I no longer a chaperone.   It was unusual going on my own.  However, it was all good...

TIME FOR A CATCH UP

Sorry to have been a bit quiet on this site recently.  It has been a bit slow on the acting front recently.  I had a flurry of stuff over Christmas with an advert for ‘Not on the High Street’ where my pretend sister found a love letter I had written to my pretend girlfriend.  So if you noticed that guy rushing across your screen in pursuit of his little sister, yep, that was me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yhxT0QbT2Io There were also a couple of BBC Radio plays with a repeat of Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman’s  series GOOD OMENS , directed by Dirk Maggs, where...

THE PHYSICIAN IS BEING MADE INTO A MUSICAL

THE PHYSICIAN IS BEING MADE INTO A MUSICAL

You may recall I have written before about the feature film ‘The Physician’, where I played the young Rob Cole.   In the 11th century, as a 9 year old boy, Rob was left to fend for himself having been orphaned. He attaches himself to a travelling Physician and wanders the land.  Driven by his passion to heal and relieve pain he travels to the East where he will pass as a Jew and will adopt the name of Jesse Ben Benjamin, so as not to stand out as European and to make his dream come true. A epic adventure. Rob Cole...
