In an recent interview at the Sarajevo Film Festival, actor Gary Oldman - who I love - shared the best advice he had ever received. He said: "it was a criticism that his eyes looked dead in a scene, sharing that he learned right then and there that much of acting comes from and through the eyes."The best advice I recei…

Hey everyone! One of the things that surprised me about this industry when I first got into it, was how people will tell you EXACTLY how they see you, based on the roles you get. Almost immediately, I found out that I'm a Dad, a Teacher, or a Cop. Even in my own movie "Turbo Cola", which I CAST, I played a cop! L…

In an ideal world, we would only take those roles that fulfill us as actors. There's roles we take to pay the bills, and then there's roles we take because we love it. Did you know that Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman didn't get paid much for the last two seasons of Sherlock? But they kept coming back because…
