Look, I used to be an actor 51 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 2: years ago and I trained in that area, so I 52 00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 2: know what it was like for them on that side, 53 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:43,799 Speaker 2: and hopefully I can potentially help them to give their 54 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 2: best performances when it's when it comes time to do 55 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 2: an audition or a callback. 56 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 3: And can I say a bloody good actor too, because 57 00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:52,959 Speaker 3: you fooled us one day and I did it was 58 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 3: very curious and did an acting course Sunday your tutelage 59 00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 3: and watched you in another actor completely baffle us with 60 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 3: a performance for a guy who reckon he rented the 61 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:01,919 Speaker 3: same room. 62 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:03,120 Speaker 2: I've forgotten about it. 63 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:06,520 Speaker 3: Well, then to showed your skill, and you can't do 64 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 3: what you do, especially as an acting coach, without having 65 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:09,079 Speaker 3: those skills. 66 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, oh that's I'm very glad to hear that it 67 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:14,800 Speaker 2: was effective. 68 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:17,800 Speaker 1: And an what a lot of people, you know, they 69 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:21,120 Speaker 1: talk about the factor? What is the factor? 70 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 2: Look? I was reading something last night and it said 71 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 2: it only takes fifteen years to become an overnight success. 72 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 2: And I think it's so true because you've got to 73 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 2: You can have a certain quality that the screen loves, 74 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 2: but you have to learn how to use that and 75 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 2: be able to act effectively and bring a character to life. 76 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 2: And most people don't get cast in lead roles having 77 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 2: had no training or experience. So if you're interested in 78 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 2: becoming a skilled actor, you've really got to put in 79 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 2: the hard yards. You've got to do some training, and 80 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 2: various people, like for instance, Heath Ledger, they had their 81 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 2: own acting coaches in LA and he would have an 82 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 2: acting coach to assist him with every single audition and 83 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 2: every role. He referred to him as a voice coach, 84 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:24,679 Speaker 2: but he was really also his acting coach as well. 85 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:29,600 Speaker 2: And most actors spend a lot of time developing their skills. 86 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 2: But I think for a lot of your listeners, what's 87 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 2: exciting with the new per Film studio is that there's 88 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:40,720 Speaker 2: potentially going to be a lot small productions filming in WA. 89 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 2: I mean, we could have big Hollywood productions because they've 90 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:48,920 Speaker 2: got two twenty five thousand feet soundstages they're building. They 91 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:52,520 Speaker 2: can be split into four smaller ones. There'll be probably 92 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:55,800 Speaker 2: going to be quite a few more productions, and so 93 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:58,479 Speaker 2: a lot of people might be interested in just having 94 00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:00,599 Speaker 2: the fun experience of bit an extra. 95 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 1: Yes, this is why we're talking about this in a 96 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:09,440 Speaker 1: bit more depth. Any because of the Gangbusters. That way 97 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 1: has gone recently in terms of being a location for 98 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:15,240 Speaker 1: making staff. You know, we've had movies, We've had The 99 00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:18,159 Speaker 1: Twelve up in York, We've had Runt in York, just 100 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 1: to name a few, and now we've got the Malaga 101 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:21,480 Speaker 1: Studios coming. 102 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:27,360 Speaker 4: What would be your top couple of tips to people. 103 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 1: You know, just for the ordinary of you know, the 104 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:33,800 Speaker 1: not the people trying out for major roles. 105 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:34,800 Speaker 4: They already know what they're. 106 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 1: Doing, but those of us just want to get involved 107 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 1: in this industry as an extra or whatever. How do 108 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:42,520 Speaker 1: people go about it? How do they put themselves in 109 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 1: the right place at the right time. 110 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 2: A great question. And by the way, just before I 111 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,120 Speaker 2: answer that, I just want to give a plug because 112 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 2: I was casting director on Runs and it's so close 113 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 2: to the third biggest opening weekend this year, so good, 114 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 2: it's past the one million total and it was all 115 00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:05,360 Speaker 2: filmed in Wa and all filmed in Perth and York, 116 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 2: and I'm so excited that a lovely family film who 117 00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:10,320 Speaker 2: has come. 118 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:11,279 Speaker 4: From Wa like that. 119 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 2: Yes, So advice if you want to do extra work, 120 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:19,000 Speaker 2: I would suggest that a good way is to join 121 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 2: an agency who represent extras. So there are several in Perth. 122 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:28,719 Speaker 2: Some of those are film Bites. Another one is called Padua, 123 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:35,360 Speaker 2: Another one is Artist Artist Management Australia. Another one is 124 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:41,560 Speaker 2: called now Actors Now. Both those last two also represent actors, 125 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 2: but they do have extras on their books as well. 126 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:51,360 Speaker 2: There are other actors agents as well. There's several of those, 127 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:55,840 Speaker 2: but they're more for people who have trained and have experience, 128 00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 2: but also for extras. There are quite a lot of 129 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,920 Speaker 2: face book groups in Perth. Some of them are called 130 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:06,799 Speaker 2: Perth Actors, some are called Actors in Perth, and many 131 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:12,560 Speaker 2: times there are student filmmakers who post notices asking for 132 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 2: volunteers for their student films, and also when people are 133 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 2: casting productions and they need extras, like on films like 134 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 2: Rump or twelve. The third series of the Twelve is 135 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 2: filming right at the moment in Perth as well, so 136 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 2: often they will post if they're searching for extras. A 137 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:46,400 Speaker 2: colleague of mine, Megan Carpenter, she's a casting director in 138 00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 2: Perth and she specializes in extras and in television commercials 139 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 2: as well. So I would suggest that exploring any of 140 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 2: those would be a good way of maybe joining one 141 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:02,560 Speaker 2: of the agents and they're going to be able to 142 00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 2: let you know when there are jobs, and being an 143 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:07,760 Speaker 2: extra can be a lot of fun because you'll get 144 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 2: paid and get to you get to observe what's going on. 145 00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:14,120 Speaker 2: You just need to be prepared that there's a lot 146 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:15,400 Speaker 2: of hurry up. 147 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:16,400 Speaker 4: And wait, yeah you want to. 148 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,160 Speaker 3: It's funny you say that because when they made the 149 00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 3: boxing movie two Fis One Heart in austraight about fifteen, 150 00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:25,120 Speaker 3: about fifteen years ago, Ray Fasio film. I've had a 151 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 3: lot of friends who were extras in that and for 152 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 3: the boxing scenes, they had to keep moving around to 153 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 3: make it look like it was a full study in 154 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 3: the people, but it was. It was a whole day. 155 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:34,360 Speaker 3: Is it going to be patient? But you learned so 156 00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:35,600 Speaker 3: much from behind the scenes. 157 00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, and it's fascinating to watch to see how 158 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:43,560 Speaker 2: they do it and how the actors get directed. But yeah, 159 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 2: you do need to be prepared, so you need to 160 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:49,640 Speaker 2: take along a book with you and a jumper in 161 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:53,120 Speaker 2: case it gets cold. But you get fed and paid, 162 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:55,079 Speaker 2: so it can be something to do. 163 00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 4: It's pretty exciting. 164 00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 1: I remember a movie that came out in nineteen eighty 165 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 1: called Harlequin. I don't know if anyone remembers this movie, 166 00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:08,120 Speaker 1: and it was horrible, scary, scary one. It was the 167 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 1: first movie ever to be made because it was made 168 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:14,720 Speaker 1: with the WA Film Corporation, and it was made in Wa, 169 00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 1: but it was set in the States, and they tried 170 00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:20,280 Speaker 1: to make out that it was filmed in the States, 171 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:23,920 Speaker 1: but it was made here. And I remember watching and 172 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:28,599 Speaker 1: there were scenes on the river sort of around Mosman Parkway, 173 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,920 Speaker 1: and I was my thirteen year old self or whatever 174 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:34,480 Speaker 1: was so excited that. 175 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:37,080 Speaker 4: It was on the screen. 176 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:41,040 Speaker 1: So to see it come to this extent where we're 177 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 1: making these you know, we've got huge stars coming to 178 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 1: town to make these movies and quality television like the 179 00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:52,800 Speaker 1: twelve being made right on our doorstep. It must be 180 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 1: you must what you've seen in your time, and you 181 00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:59,080 Speaker 1: must be so excited by the developments. 182 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:03,239 Speaker 2: I am. And look, we've known for years that Wa 183 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 2: has the most beautiful, unique light. I know you don't 184 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 2: have it there today at the moment. 185 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 4: We always talking about the light. 186 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:16,480 Speaker 2: We have nine months of almost guaranteed perfect filming weather, 187 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:19,800 Speaker 2: you know, because our climate really I suppose it's quite 188 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 2: similar to Los Angeles in that way, but we have 189 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:27,800 Speaker 2: ideal conditions for filming But the challenge I think is 190 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 2: up until now is we've never had a film studio, 191 00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:38,839 Speaker 2: and all the other capital cities except for Darwin, I 192 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:42,760 Speaker 2: think all of them and Tasmania Hober that all of 193 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:46,080 Speaker 2: the others have got film studios, some more than one, 194 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 2: and so we've been missing out for years. And I've 195 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:51,320 Speaker 2: got to tell you, we were so stoked that David Templeman, 196 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 2: our arts Minister, managed to push for this and has 197 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:58,000 Speaker 2: managed to make it a reality. And now we're devastated 198 00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 2: because he's stepping down. 199 00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:04,760 Speaker 1: He has his eye on signing up though to he. 200 00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:09,800 Speaker 4: Was to be an extra all right to him yesterday. 201 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:10,680 Speaker 4: You're excited about that. 202 00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 1: So right about the light, I remember when they made 203 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:18,080 Speaker 1: Cloud Street, the director was absolutely adamant that it be 204 00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 1: made here because he said, you cannot create that light 205 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:24,920 Speaker 1: anywhere else, and it was, you know, was captured in 206 00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 1: Cloud Street. Can you tell us anything about any of 207 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 1: the things you've been involved with just recently or are 208 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:34,319 Speaker 1: involved with as we speak. 209 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:39,719 Speaker 2: Runt is what I just the latest film that I 210 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:42,840 Speaker 2: worked on, and I'm just so excited that it's come out. 211 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:46,600 Speaker 2: And if if audiences haven't gone to see it, I 212 00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:50,439 Speaker 2: really recommend it for their families, for any age. Really. 213 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:53,720 Speaker 2: It's the adaptation of Craig Sylvie's novel Yep. I know 214 00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:57,080 Speaker 2: it's playing currently at Luna Leadable and I think most 215 00:11:57,120 --> 00:12:01,679 Speaker 2: other cinemas yes as well. And it's a really beautiful 216 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:05,600 Speaker 2: film with amazing classic Australian actors in it as well. 217 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:10,000 Speaker 2: So that's that's a perfect one I would recommend. 218 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:10,480 Speaker 4: Yeah. 219 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:14,360 Speaker 1: Absolutely, we're big Craig Silver fans, so we're already gunning 220 00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:17,280 Speaker 1: for Honeybee to be one of the next things. 221 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 3: A couple of weeks ago, Yeah we made Yeah, we 222 00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:21,840 Speaker 3: could let you go. I just want to raise the word. 223 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:23,440 Speaker 3: I want to bring up the word charisma. Now you 224 00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:25,360 Speaker 3: talked about acting skill. You have to have skill to 225 00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:27,959 Speaker 3: make it. But I look at someone them multiple generations 226 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:30,040 Speaker 3: of actors, and you look at someone like Sam Neil 227 00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:33,040 Speaker 3: looking so good in his seventies, and then Lee Tiger, 228 00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:36,080 Speaker 3: Hellie from Frio, the Young Fella, and then everyone in between. 229 00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:39,320 Speaker 3: Sometimes they just walk in for an auditional walk in 230 00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:41,360 Speaker 3: and you just go they've got it. 231 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:43,120 Speaker 4: Or do you have to see the depth of the 232 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:44,000 Speaker 4: skill first. 233 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:48,840 Speaker 2: Look. I certainly think the camera does love some people, 234 00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:49,800 Speaker 2: and that's to do. 235 00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:51,280 Speaker 4: With one clue. 236 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:58,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, they're photogenicity. I made that word up. That's really 237 00:12:58,640 --> 00:12:58,959 Speaker 2: to do. 238 00:12:59,000 --> 00:12:59,920 Speaker 4: With their bone struck. 239 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:04,959 Speaker 2: So there I color their their skin tone, the quality 240 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:08,880 Speaker 2: of their voice, all of those things. Certainly, if they're 241 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 2: not difficult to look at or look at, then we 242 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:17,040 Speaker 2: take notice. And that's across the board. And they don't 243 00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:19,640 Speaker 2: have to be beautiful either. It can be something that 244 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:25,600 Speaker 2: knows you through them and their eyes and what they 245 00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:29,160 Speaker 2: embody when they bring you they come on screen. But 246 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 2: that won't do it. Only otherwise models would be playing 247 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:34,440 Speaker 2: the leads everything. 248 00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:38,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, well has got that photogenicity in. 249 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 3: Spain, and then you're going to then who's walked under 250 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:46,400 Speaker 3: the set and become become a quality actress as well, exactly. 251 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:50,280 Speaker 2: And Lee we cast I cast him in The Heights, 252 00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:54,680 Speaker 2: which is the ac episode in his first adult role, 253 00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:59,360 Speaker 2: and it was just beautiful to really see him blossom. 254 00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:03,559 Speaker 2: And he did in Boys Follows Universal. 255 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 4: Extraordinary, extraordinary.
