Additional Skills
In March 2020 I filmed an international tv commercial for Nintendo Animal Crossings New Horizons.
I was BAFTA's 2018-2019 Young Presenter after winning my audition in episode 4 of ITV’s ‘The Big Audition’. This means I got to film behind the scenes on kids' TV programmes and attend BAFTA events to interview celebrities for the BAFTA Kids YouTube channel.
In February 2019 I attended the BAFTA Film Gala to interview guests including Eddie Redmayne, Jason Isaacs, Celia Imrie and Noel Clarke. I also appeared on stage with Claudia Winkleman to talk about presenting for BAFTA Kids. The video Is available on the BAFTA Kids and Teens YouTube channel.
I attended the BAFTA Children's Awards in November 2018 where I interviewed celebrities on the red carpet. I got to go on stage and present a BAFTA award, and my film was shown on Sky Kids FYI on Sky News on the 1st and 2nd of December 2018.
I have gone behind the scenes at CBBC's So Awkward and ITV's Scrambled to interview the stars of the shows, and filmed with voice artists and the director at a BAFTA preview screening of Citv’s Robozuna.
Additional Information
In the spring of 2019 I filmed two short films with university students. This gave me experience of dramatic acting, taking direction and being filmed from many different angles and with single and double camera setups.
I played John Darling in The Pantomime Adventures of Peter Pan at the Pomegranate Theatre, Chesterfield. This was a run of 26 shows in December 2017 and January 2018. It was a professional production by PHA Pantos (Paul Holman Associates). I didn't get paid but I got to work with Sam Attwater from Eastenders and Kelli Young from Liberty X. bit.ly/2EICPED
My first experience on stage was playing Oliver Twist in Oliver! with Chesterfield Operatic Society at the Pomegranate Theatre, Chesterfield in 2014. I will also be in Titanic the Musical with them in November 2019.
In 2019 I performed in Salt by Dawn King for the National Theatre Connections programme with Pomegranate Youth Theatre, at the Rose Theatre in Chesterfield and the Crucible Theatre in Chesterfield.
