Very excited, and can't wait to get started!

Audition Today!

Hey World,

So I drove to Belfast today to audition for an upcoming BFI Short (I won't give too much information away about this film). 

I was sent the script two days before and had to prepare for two roles, the lead female character and a minor character that has a great scene with a well-known Irish actor.

When I got there I was asked to read for the part of the minor female, I had put a lot of energy and emotion into the lead so I was a bit put off at first, but I love the complexity of the minor character also.

The audition was filmed and the Director told me I was 'great' and that he was 'really happy' with how it went.

That was really nice to hear as it was my first movie audition in a long time. Fingers crossed I will hear something, whether it's a yes or a no.
