About me
I started writing in my bed when I was 18 working a boring as hell retail job at a Tescos up the road. It was my way of expressing creativity at the time and still to this day is a passion I find to be very compelling and fascinating.I have recently completed studying at the MET Film School in West London, located within the Iconic Ealing Studios wherein such classics such as The Ladykillers and the Carry On films were shot. Attending a BA course at the MET has taught me a lot, as has the years leading up to me deciding to attend a film school. I worked for over 5 years in various retail establishments such as Tesco, Sainsburys and Debenhams allowing me to observe and experience the full gamut of human emotion from rage at not being served Alcohol on a Friday night or the depths of scum and villainy that serve as managers in these establishments.
I have experience primarily with casting, meeting with actors and welcoming them into a safe and secure environment.
I also recently last year worked as a 3rd AD running actors too and from set on a web series called Story Of The Heart produced by MET Film School and showrunner Steve Rehman.
I enjoy working with actors as I myself have had many years of experience on and off set, I have a good understanding of professional set protocol and how a set is run. I also have a very communicative manner and professional attitude to work, in any tasks or jobs I'm needed to perform.
Having a positive mental attitude under pressure is essential to my work. Keeping level headed under immense stress is the only way to progress through it and come out the other side having solved all issues and problems and keeping all parties calm and focused. I strongly believe we set the tone of a situation ourselves, and if I am confident and focused on solving a problem under pressure, my peers will follow suit.
