This is Me, Marie and Sofia and together we're telling an amazing story - about a young man who has just received the “bad new”... that he has cancer (based on a true story).
We're getting closer and closer to the big day and Premier, with only 2 weeks to go we are rehearsing like never before, and it really starts to show progress (would be sad if it didn't). This young man (portraid by me) is such a fighter, maybe not when we first meet him but as the journey goes on he gets stronger and stronger with the help of both these lovely women. I've been struggling so much with his emotions but I've realised it's because he is in such emotional state and doesn't really know what to think or feel, he is so confused and scared. I feel so strongly for this character and I'm happy I get to portray him and tell his story. The show will be filmed, so expect to see it here on my blog.
Have a great Saturday!
I started my day by playing stupid games on my phone (but seriously, they make me so relaxed and sometimes I feel like I need to treat myself and let myself be a normal guy and play games. I do really love games.) Then I went up to make myself some breakfast and coffee and watched American Horror Story: Hotel episode 2 (which was amazing) and now I'm writing this.
I did some shopping (lets see now, I think it was Tuesday) two days ago, because It's been ages since I bought new cloth, probably 2-3 months ago. I used to buy new cloth every month, I guess the guy inside me is finally approaching, living with a sister and a mother, it's easy to take after what they're doing, especially if you're like me an actor, always on the watch, trying to get as much information about the society and people as you can (for later use in your work). Well, It's nice to get some fresh new cloth (love the smell and the feeling). I don't really have the economy for it, but hopefully I get the job I applied for, or something else... I've got plans to start my own business, which I really think can work (fingers krossed).
I have rehearsal today so I'm gonna do the best I can to be as prepared and in character as I can. I've been struggling, because my co-actor's characters are so witty and fucking hilarious (and I love that stuff, my humour) so I can't keep myself from laughing. When I shouldn't laugh at all, because my character is in such deep depression and so sad and confused. I really need to find the concentration and bite me in the tongue. Stick around for an update on how it went.
Have a great day (it's almost Halloween)
I just finished reading "The Psychopath Test" (a brilliant book by Jon Ronson, YOU GOTTA read it!) and now I finished reading Username: Evie by Joe Sugg (also brilliant).
I love when you can see the writer inside your head by just reading a book, I guess I know him too well from watching his videos. Or maybe it's just something about the Sugg's in general, because I felt the same way when I read Zoe Suggs book "Girl online". I don't know many people probably wouldn't agree with me, unless they're watching their videos. Everything they stand for is revealed in their books, which is why I loved both of their books. (omg I sound like a book nerd, maybe I am? I don't know, I just find reading very relaxing recently, and it helps with my vocabulary, and my acting)
With that said, I'm now moving on to the next read, which is the script for "The Cancer Gala" I'm currently working on. I pretty much know my lines, and my character, there are just a few questions that need to be answered.
Have a great Sunday!!
Been watching the Perks of being a wallflower to find the right emotion for when my character have survived Cancer. (That's an odd choice of movie you might think? Well, it's not)
First of all, I cry like a baby every time I watch it, mostly because Charlie is such a relatable character and partly because Emma and Logan is doing such a great job on showing us the emotional part of the story with their silent, and still faces (you know what I mean, it's so natural). Anyway, I really think I got it (the emotion I was talking about) Logan who plays Charlie is giving me the exact feeling I've been looking for, towards the end when he gets out of the hospital that's the feeling I need.
You gotta realise that no matter how sad your story might be there is always little light in there, and that's what I want to express towards the end of my scene in the Cancer Gala.
With that said, I can finally say how much I love this film again. It's without hesitation my favourite film ever, don't know if that's bad or good, 'cause it's such a serious and sad story. But at the same time happy. I JUST LOVE IT.
