I guess 135 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 8: I pretend and then I pretend to be somebody else, 136 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:33,640 Speaker 8: or I am myself and I stand in front of 137 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 8: a camera. I guess you could just say I pretend 138 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:37,520 Speaker 8: and then I tell jokes. 139 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:40,640 Speaker 5: And how did you become an actor? 140 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:42,640 Speaker 6: Boy, that's a good question. 141 00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 8: My first thing I ever acted in was when I 142 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 8: was in first grade. We did a play called It's 143 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 8: a Small World, which is based on the Disney ride. 144 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 8: I played a snake and a monkey, and I played 145 00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 8: a bell ringer from Switzerland, and I played all these 146 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:05,360 Speaker 8: tiny little parts and my parents were like, what is happening? 147 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 6: And who is this kid? 148 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,520 Speaker 8: That's what they told me later on, and that was 149 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:12,240 Speaker 8: my first play and I loved it. I loved being 150 00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 8: on stage. So that's how I started becoming an actor. 151 00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 8: And then I started doing plays. But I guess I 152 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 8: was about thirteen and I just thought, I want to 153 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 8: do this. Acting is a weird, wonderful art. And I 154 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,200 Speaker 8: know that you need to work hard, and you have 155 00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:35,680 Speaker 8: to know your lines, and you have to know where 156 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:39,160 Speaker 8: to walk with your blocking. That's for plays and for 157 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 8: movies and TV. You have to be there very early usually, 158 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 8: so you've got to show up early. 159 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:47,520 Speaker 6: Right now. I work in Vancouver. I get to set 160 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:48,440 Speaker 6: at about six. 161 00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:51,360 Speaker 8: Am, and then a nice person does my hair and 162 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 8: makeup and we shoot until seven at night, and we 163 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:57,120 Speaker 8: do the same thing five days in a row. 164 00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:58,760 Speaker 6: You have to be pretty. 165 00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 8: Ambitious, which means you have to try really hard because 166 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 8: there's lots of other people that want to act. And 167 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:07,679 Speaker 8: then when the camera's on you or the curtain goes up, 168 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 8: be ready to talk out loud. 169 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 5: Where do you find inspiration? 170 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:19,720 Speaker 8: Oh, well, it depends. It's from all over the place. 171 00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:23,719 Speaker 8: I'm inspired by performances that I see. I'm inspired by 172 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 8: my friends that talk about it. I'll be inspired by 173 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 8: a script for whatever reason way back when I wanted 174 00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 8: to do this, and so I get very excited just 175 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 8: thinking about the opportunity to act and wear a costume 176 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 8: and try to find the truth of whatever scene I'm in. 177 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 8: I love that stuff and I don't want it to stop. 178 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:51,520 Speaker 8: So I get inspiration from all over. 179 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:56,440 Speaker 1: So now we know what gets Joel mccale inspired.

It's not all fun and free food. 233 00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 8: That's the thing about actors. Failure is part of the game, 234 00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:35,960 Speaker 8: and you fail for the most part, you fail way 235 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:38,560 Speaker 8: more than you succeed. There's all sorts of parts that 236 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:41,680 Speaker 8: I've auditioned for that I didn't get. But then when 237 00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 8: things work, it's magic. So those magic moments like climbing 238 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:48,760 Speaker 8: to the top of the mountain are worth it for 239 00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:50,880 Speaker 8: the times that you're in the deep valleys. If you've 240 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 8: got your eyes focused on what you want to do, 241 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:56,160 Speaker 8: which is if you want to be an actor, then 242 00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:59,320 Speaker 8: keep doing. If you're a lawyer, you practice law, if 243 00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:02,360 Speaker 8: you're a doctor, you practice medicine. Keep going with that. 244 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:05,680 Speaker 8: You're going to make mistakes, no doubt, and you'll learn 245 00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:08,680 Speaker 8: from all those and it'll make you a better actor, 246 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:12,240 Speaker 8: a performer. You should get into an acting class or 247 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:13,560 Speaker 8: get into a play. 248 00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:14,760 Speaker 6: That's where you should start. 249 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:17,680 Speaker 8: Because we have these dreams in our hearts for whatever reason, 250 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:19,840 Speaker 8: and we want to usually go after those. 251 00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 5: It all starts with the dream.
