When I didn't actually 507 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 3: have a job, I just go on wag school genius. 508 00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:36,200 Speaker 1: Oh I'm so glad you did. 509 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:39,560 Speaker 2: Oh amazing.

It was? It was really cool. So that was 513 00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:47,639 Speaker 3: that was a worldwide show and Bill Ny did it 514 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:50,760 Speaker 3: in the US. In the UK sorry, and Elijah would 515 00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:51,360 Speaker 3: in the US. 516 00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:53,439 Speaker 1: You've done your research, Oh yeah, I'm very nerdy. 517 00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:56,520 Speaker 3: And David Mott, who was the then program director of 518 00:22:56,600 --> 00:22:58,560 Speaker 3: Chennel ten said, you know, we've got the show called 519 00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:00,159 Speaker 3: Me a Cat manor which want to straight and I 520 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:01,679 Speaker 3: a bit.

And then 524 00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:14,720 Speaker 3: I narrated the whole show. And it's actually I'd be 525 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:19,760 Speaker 3: listening to Elijah Wood's voice and then we'd write it 526 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:21,800 Speaker 3: as we go because he would be saying some stuff 527 00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:24,080 Speaker 3: that Americans would say that Australians would really say. And 528 00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:27,440 Speaker 3: then some episodes we'd be listening Bill Nai and and 529 00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:29,520 Speaker 3: you know, just changing it and australianizing it a bit. 530 00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:31,800 Speaker 3: But that was hugely popably.

Yeah, that was really good, isn't it? Just? 547 00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:16,639 Speaker 1: So? 548 00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:18,159 Speaker 2: Okay? What do you like? 549 00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:21,239 Speaker 1: So you've got this like the cool thing about you 550 00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:23,280 Speaker 1: is you've got this passion for all the stuff that 551 00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:25,920 Speaker 1: you do. You've got the skill set, but you've also 552 00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:29,639 Speaker 1: you're actually working like I I think we know this 553 00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:33,320 Speaker 1: about actors, like the success raiders about two percent, and 554 00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:34,600 Speaker 1: so I just think I used to when I was 555 00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:36,720 Speaker 1: in Sydney, I trained a Russell Crowe's gym and I 556 00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:40,040 Speaker 1: remember it was called ninety eight Riley Street. Because you've 557 00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:42,160 Speaker 1: got to be in the top two percent to kind 558 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:47,239 Speaker 1: of like cut through, right, eight percent don't. And I 559 00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:49,479 Speaker 1: just think like you've been able to cut through that. 560 00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:51,360 Speaker 2: So I want to know, like, what. 561 00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:54,280 Speaker 1: If you know, if you had to pick, would you 562 00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:57,000 Speaker 1: prefer to like act or voice? Like they're too because 563 00:24:57,200 --> 00:24:58,840 Speaker 1: to me, they're kind of different beca. 564 00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:03,679 Speaker 3: Acting Yeah, I mean, there's nothing I hate learning lines, 565 00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:08,640 Speaker 3: learning lines, But once you've got those lines, you can 566 00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:10,199 Speaker 3: play around and you have a bit of fun with you. 567 00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:12,080 Speaker 1: You know what My trick for learning a script is 568 00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:14,120 Speaker 1: you've got to move when you're learning it. You can't 569 00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:16,719 Speaker 1: be seated. But if you're moving, even if you're stacking 570 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:20,840 Speaker 1: the dishwasher, learning walking around, like, if you're moving. 571 00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:23,560 Speaker 3: I write the lines down and then I record them 572 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:26,639 Speaker 3: on my iPhone and I'll just listen to them driving 573 00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:28,960 Speaker 3: in the car, and that's that's a good way to 574 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:35,360 Speaker 3: remember them. But I don't remember the lines as you know, 575 00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:37,439 Speaker 3: how I'm going to be emotionally or anything like that. 576 00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:39,920 Speaker 3: Just remember the lines flat. Is that way I can 577 00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:42,520 Speaker 3: react because acting is all about reacting to what the 578 00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:44,560 Speaker 3: other person's doing because they might say the wrong line 579 00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:46,040 Speaker 3: and then you just run with it and you just 580 00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:47,040 Speaker 3: say something ridiculous. 581 00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:48,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, no, that's the way to do it. 582 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,240 Speaker 1: They always all the best teachers say to me, is 583 00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:55,200 Speaker 1: like learn it almost without punctuation, without just literally learn 584 00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:56,480 Speaker 1: it as cold as possible. 585 00:25:56,720 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 2: But one thing I have to if I'm doing an American. 586 00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:01,959 Speaker 1: Script, I have to steal it on dialect because otherwise 587 00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:05,240 Speaker 1: I'm creating like extra jobs for myself down and the 588 00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:07,200 Speaker 1: way Australians inflect is. 589 00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:09,040 Speaker 3: The opposite, very different. 590 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:10,399 Speaker 1: The way in a merit. So I'll just be like, 591 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:12,320 Speaker 1: just learn it on dialect and learn it flat and 592 00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:14,240 Speaker 1: then you can have fun with it in the line. 593 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:18,359 Speaker 1: It's so addictive though, because I for many years my 594 00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:19,800 Speaker 1: dream was to be a talk show host. That was 595 00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:22,720 Speaker 1: my like ultimate like Steve Colbert, sign me up right, 596 00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:25,680 Speaker 1: that was an ultimate dream. And then I was I 597 00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:28,159 Speaker 1: did this audition for Channel seven where I was co 598 00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:31,560 Speaker 1: hosting with Limo, like and they were swapping out the girls, 599 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:33,240 Speaker 1: and they swapping out the guys, so it would be Limo, 600 00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:35,040 Speaker 1: then it'd be Tim Robuds and you would have been 601 00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 1: great too. It's just basically to find two hosts of 602 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:41,560 Speaker 1: a lifestyle TV show, right, And I was so nervous 603 00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:43,080 Speaker 1: about the auto Q that I was like, I'll just 604 00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:45,159 Speaker 1: learn it by rote. And as soon as I sat down, 605 00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:47,680 Speaker 1: They're like, hey, we've switched the script. Here's a new one, 606 00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:50,600 Speaker 1: and I'm like, oh, so I caught ups acting school 607 00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:53,119 Speaker 1: and I was like, hey, I can see you do 608 00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:54,960 Speaker 1: a TV presenting course.

What about acting school? And I was like 611 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:02,160 Speaker 1: I'd rather as swim with sharks and they're like great sign. 612 00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 2: And then I became addicted. Yeah, it's something bigger than 613 00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:06,639 Speaker 2: you that I love about acting. 614 00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:09,919 Speaker 1: It's like something like saying to my acting coaches, like 615 00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:12,200 Speaker 1: something's running through your veins, like it's like an art 616 00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 1: form that it's not like where's that camera, where's that eyeline, 617 00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:17,119 Speaker 1: which you would have to do all the time for 618 00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:20,640 Speaker 1: so much of like that more hosting, presenting, crowd warm 619 00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:22,399 Speaker 1: up stuff as well. You need to like kind of 620 00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:25,280 Speaker 1: be your own producer, I feel.

But everything else, I 1138 00:49:48,080 --> 00:49:50,480 Speaker 1: just go out with a full I had one teacher say, 1139 00:49:51,920 --> 00:49:55,160 Speaker 1: anyone that's not got an American accent, you cannot call 1140 00:49:55,200 --> 00:49:57,520 Speaker 1: home for the rest of this course.

He goes, as an actor, 1148 00:50:17,760 --> 00:50:19,480 Speaker 1: you need to be switched on, switched off, switched on. 1149 00:50:19,640 --> 00:50:22,400 Speaker 1: Is that's more important than just I agree? 1150 00:50:22,480 --> 00:50:24,759 Speaker 3: I think that you know, that's a bit of a 1151 00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:28,040 Speaker 3: croc totally yeah, and that that is where the talent 1152 00:50:28,080 --> 00:50:30,640 Speaker 3: will shine through as well.
