Who REALLY wants to be on T.V?: Labour T.V Ad Last Night
Who REALLY wants to be on T.V?: Labour T.V Ad Last Night: Hmm....no matter my political affiliation I kind of liked the Labour T.V ad and the use of respected actors -in particular James Purefoy who...
Labour T.V Ad Last Night
A successful actor I knew always talked of the absolute need for believability as an actor. As an audience we need to believe the actor IS that character. That William Travers or whoever is real and is the person he portrays. Achieving that believability is no mean feat as we've all seen wooden actors.
No, if the aim was to get my attention it certainly did that.....................................
Advertising on T.V needs to be clever enough or /and subtle enough to gain and more importantly hold our attention

Who REALLY wants to be on T.V?: U.K Reality Shows versus U.S Reality Shows: Was contemplating the U.K v the U.S reality market. What makes U.K participants so different from our U.S counterparts? There's a common m...
U.K Reality Shows versus U.S Reality Shows
I read the audition posts for U.S shows and I've read more than once that you need to show you stand out from the rest. Does that mean you over exaggerate your personality traits to get the job. Are you actually being yourself or is too tempting to be someone you are not to be cast?
Would you be someone you are not to get onto to one of these shows?....
