1. I spent 2 weeks at the University of Greenwich watching them film Thor: The Dark World a couple of years back. Saw Chris Hemsworth plenty of times. That was an awesome time. It's what got me more interested in film. After that, I signed up to an extras agency because it was free to university students.

2. I've been growing my beard since July of last year. I originally started because I saw castings on said site for Into The Woods wanting men with beards. I've always dabbled with face fuzz since I've been able to grow it, changing the style every couple of months, but I've never taken the commitment to let it grow before then. They never went anywhere with those casting calls but I kept it growing anyway.

3. Eventually a few months back, I got a background role in a film as a pall bearer thanks to my beard (and longish hair). That was a cool experience for the most part. I only really had one day of filming on the set, along with 2 days of sitting around doing nothing. But it led me to sign up to a few more casting agencies (which hasn't really helped much tbh. I get an offer every other day which normally leads to nothing but disappointment...)

4. I do have another role next month for a pretty awesome film I can't talk about because they made me sign a disclosure. I think as a royal courtier? Is that a thing? Whatever. I'm pumped for that! Like super excited for that! I just hope I'm not star struck. I didn't know anyone from the previous film (nobody I filmed with anyway) but this one's got a great cast.

5. But on the flip-side, I'm pretty pissed because last week I got another role, but the production cancelled all the fittings that were supposed to take place this week, and I can't make any next week because I'll be in Florida! Which is also trouble because some volcano in Iceland might erupt and disrupt flights before we leave...
