Showreels

I seem to have found myself in an annoying Catch 22 which i think is stopping me from getting more work, and i'm sure it is a problem many actors have.
The problem i'm having is that in order to get the chance to audition for good parts in tv and film, the casting directors want to see that you have a really good showreel, but to get footage for a really good showreel, you need to get good parts in tv and film!
I had a go at making my own showreel, but it didn't turn out too well, as far as i know it's making me look like a worse actress than i really am.

  



I am currently waiting to get footage from two films i worked on, but unfortunately i play the "twist" character in both of them. This means that both productions are reluctant to hand over the footage as it might ruin their chances of distribution because someone might see my character and know what to expect!
I can't win!

Ground Floor by Rayne Music Video

Just remembered i never posted the final video! Enjoy x


'The Ground Floor' - Rayne Official Music Video from Melting Point Media on Vimeo.

Sorry i haven't posted for ages!

I looked like this most for most of Christmas/New Year, which isn't exactly the right mind frame for blogging =D

Everything is halted on Gunnrunner Nun unfortunately because the writer is in talks with an American company, and might be selling the script. So don't know what's happening with that.


When i was in London last, i met Nida Manzoor, a friend of Marc Price and another film maker, and she's asked me to look a script she wrote, which looks amazing! So i really hope she still wants me for it.
She had set backs too, apparently you're not allowed to film in a games arcade, who knew?! Something to do with copyright, which is a problem as the whole film is set in a games arcade.
But not to worry, Nida managed to find an old game from somewhere, so hopefully everything's back on track for filming in Swansea, Wales, in March.

Can't wait! x
