Thanks @pierrepinna - 1st rule of acting is โacting is reactingโ: live; in the moment; responding to a multitude of nuances in preceding actorโs line; responding to directorโs notes; adapting script maybe too.. Then performances start to fly. Acting is not therefore programmable
Woohoo the #Bafta longlists are in and Iโm chuffed to see 3 of our cast named. Alongside the other categories the game is up for - 7 bafta categories ainโt bad!
I was Lead Voice Director. ๐๐ผ to @ChineseRoom
Artistic Achievement, Audio Achievement, British Game, Narrative, New Intellectual Property, Performer in a Leading Role (Alec Newman), Performer in a Supporting Role (Michael Abubakar, Karen Dunbar).
Things have just got a lot more difficult . Hereโs what I think . I had no control over what just happened . None . But I do have control over how I will react to it . And I am not going to give up on the beautiful and the good , the grip on my dreams just got tighter .
Many have commented on the exceptional voice acting in Still Wakes the Deep. Who's a better person to tell all about it than the game's Lead Voice Director, the brilliant Kate Saxon @SaxonKate.

I had a wonderful time working with Sean Rigby and everyone at Sonning, and it was so nice to see these lovely people โฆ@abigailthawโฉ โฆ@SaxonKateโฉ xx #endeavour
This is the same course that I took, utilising my skills as a theatre director, learning new skills specific to TV, multi-cam and Eastendersโฆ and which ultimately opened the door to further television. Highly recommend.

Loved #iangelder - the kindest, most gentle, considerate man. Wonderful actor. Iโve worked with him often and wanted to continue to do so for many many years. So very sad heโs gone and so fast. Ian is in a TV Ep I directed, thatโs yet to come out. Heartfelt condolences to Ben.
