To write, to speak, to act

As Butler opposite Takeshi Kaneshiro for a Lipton Tea Ad

Filmed in Bangkok with the Korean/Japanese film star Takeshi Kaneshiro. My agent for this role was AppleBox, Kuala Lumpur

The Lost Healthcare Ad

Our hero appears somewhat more prominently. This was a hoot; enjoyed it immensely. Take the shot about 3 minutes in, the ‘doc’ is treating my knee against the wall Xray – catch me pointing to it – in fact I said something along the lines, ‘hey doc thats a hand, where did you qualify?’ took a number of retakes after the hysteria from cast and crew died down. Stay on the video for my dialogue piece that follows shortly after. The editors clearly thought I played the part of a 53 year old most convincingly – how very flattering :-) . Final note, spot the close up of my hand gripping the apparatus in the physio room. The Director insisted I hold the rail firmer – I did, and the net result was a dislocated shoulder. In a physiotherapy shoot! can you believe it! Injuries aside, acting is enormous fun.

The theme here I believe was based on a strong throat lozenge!
