Last night Pascal Aka premiered “Jamie and Eddie: Souls of Strife”. It was a great time and a very successful event with well over 300 people in attendance (400 or so capacity).

 We all finally got to see the finished product. A lot was cut out and the film was still a feature length movie spanning over an hour. Pascal Aka’s work was very impressive especially for this being his first film! Many were left impressed and a good time was had by all.  People seemed to enjoy my character “Spookie”!

I booked and shot a TV commercial and print for Sara Lee! Shoot went great. The first day I was in swimming shorts, flippers and goggles. I had to do a goofy walk then again with a burger! It was actually all photographed. The TV commercial will have a sort of animation style feel to it.

 It will be tested in a few areas in the United States and possibly made into a National US commercial. As for the print, one was with a girl as a couple’s shoot. We both had mouthfuls of cake! Then I switched shirts and did it all over again but by myself.

I’ve been working a lot on films in the past few months.. lots of busy and sleep deprived weekends! We shot and finished “Nothing Left To Say”. It was great working with Paul, his wife Shalan, friend Dre and my cast mate Nancy. I’ve already seen rough edits of the film and it’s going to look great. Paul’s not only a pleasure to work with but a really talented guy!

Another film that we completed is Pascal’s “Jamie and Eddie: Souls of Strife”. The premiere is on May 27th! Check out the website for details. Pascal’s another hard working man who’s artistically gifted.

We also finally shot the last scene for “Drinks”.

Finally, I continued extensive work for the feature length film “6 for 7″. At this point I only have a few scenes left to shoot, and eventually some voiceovers!

Additionally, I was offered the lead in a short thriller called “Goodbye”. I accepted and we’ve already shot a good chunk of the film.

As for commercial work, I booked another Much Music TV ad for their “Much Mobile Missions” contest. Then I did a video for the new “LG Fusic” phone which is featured on their French webpage for it. I was also featured in an internal Transport Canada video.

Moving on to print, I landed a job for Shopper’s Drug Mart. The pictures should be appearing in stores soon enough. I also did a photoshoot for the “Centropolis” in Laval. Pictures should be up at the center as well as on their website. Lastly, I got a new headshot that was shot by Robert Du Broy; a great guy. Check out the resume and pictures section for updates with all the aforementioned.
