Jen and Snejina discuss their first ever meeting many moons ago that all stemmed from a representation email. Now, living in separate countries, they are best friends using this time to go over first impressions.
Experiences of being on set as supporting artists/extras. Snejina worked in BG Casting and also being a BG Agent. Drop out rate and excuses. Jen covers how she felt being on set as an actor around other BG when something goes wrong.
Snejina gets into the nitty gritty of the pitfalls to avoid when you're represented and how you can stand out of the crowd. Snejina owns two agencies. One for talent (actors etc) and the other for the modeling in Vancouver, Canada.
First guest and he's the greatest of all beings - Joshua Young. Primarily a screenwriter but to us, we've seen him wear many hats. He been an actor, an acting coach, voice artist, producer, video editor - and many more.
Snejina and Jen talking the ups and downs of the industry and how we get escapism. It can be through TV, Film, a bath or a good old fashioned book about murder. This might not sound lighthearted but there's a lot to enjoy about this.
Deep dive into the magical world of Sinead. Both Sinead and Sneji record from their beds and we have serious time travel going on. Covering beginnings, Nancy Drew, voiceover, embarrassing stories, her beautiful jawline and essence.
Actor Brian Villalobos' recommended IMDb credit from the work he's done, cultural differences, Tim Horton's - Even an Accent Off. Brian gives his best UK accent 'which news flash - is awesome' and Jen goes with some U.S. accents.
What a pleasure to have such a well spoken gent in our ears. We talked the origins of his unusual name, his beginnings, the illustrious Julian Fellowes, Downton Abbey process, what it's like to be a dad and scar stories.
Talking over improving auditions, self tapes, funny/crazy audition stories and the challenge of intimacy on set (with one mini story!). Lighthearted chat from both sides.
The one and only Ross Grant. His career, starting ActOnThis.tv, serial killers and invisibility. Both Jen and Snejina are impressed with Ross' enthusiasm online, motivation and drive to share as much information to actors globally.
Graced with absolute acting staple - Lee Arenberg. Lee has been in Pirates of the Carribean but he's also a major regular on Once Upon a Time, worked on great shows like Seinfield, Friends, Action, All Star Strek TV shows and many more.
Maria talks her journey getting into casting, from an actress herself and training in Hollywood. Really taking time to give advice she's learned from being in casting for six years and working with arguably the busiest office in Canada.
Sneji and Jen talk about the process of being submitted to getting an audition - the realities. This is definitely to demystify. Turning down an audition? Giving you an idea of the work that's gone into getting you that opportunity.
We are joined by an absolutely incredible human being - Viv Leacock. He talks about his beginnings, a sentence that changed him in a workshop, working with Eddie Murphy on I-Spy and the audition process for such a huge film and more.
Insanely talented actor and voice artist - Trevor Devall talks about his beginnings, working on many great shows, his YouTube show Me, Myself and Die, advice he would give to newcomers. This is a fun and interesting listen from the get go.
Viv Leacock is back. We talk about what's been going on in Canada lately, struggles Viv has faced, Brit shows, ideal character he'd love to play, living your life first making you a better actor, joining When Calls the Heart and more.
