Thanks to the person who started this rumour, I’m actually quite amused about it all.

Since the start of the year, I haven’t had a chance to step back and see what is going on.  I have been so focused on acting and making progress in the industry that I feel I may be missing the simpler things in life.  My schedule is jammed packed with, rehearsals, filming, pre-production meetings, coffee with industry people and script learning.  Right now I am learning the fine art of balancing family and my passion of acting.  I’ll let you know how that goes in the next few months.

Flatmates episode 4 will be filming next Saturday, I have my costume and lines down and as usual it should be a great day with Jonny Walker and Cathy Prastides.  I am also preparing my monologues for my audition at Actors Now in 4 weeks, who would have thought that two monologues at 1:30 minutes would be so hard to prepare.

I have three more projects that I am working on, one which requires me to have an Italian accent, another requires me to bulk up and to become a boxer and the third film requires a normality in an unusual setting.

So as you can see things are quite hectic and requires much of my time, but I am loving every moment of it and I love the feeling of being in front of the camera and stepping into the shoes of someone else and telling their story.  I hope to work with more talented actors and learn from the experience.

Oh and if you were wondering, the photo for this blog entry is of Kristy Obst and me going through a script at Loren Johnson’s, Screen Actors Online 10 week workshop.

Thanks for reading.

Much Love

Leon
