hey guys! been recommended to try this site and I've seen good things so far. So, I'm John, a late blooming actor based in Essex, UK. Originally from north east of England. Through chance got offered a job on set being an extra of a horror short which I loved doing and decided Acting was my calling card!. Look forward to networking with like-minded guys and girls around here and see what the future brings my way :D

Hello John, What a great introduction to acting! what kind of acting jobs are you most interested in? Linda Scarlett
Welcome to the site John. I've yet to go to UK, and have no clue where Braintree is, but we do have few members from there: https://www.stage32.com/people?coordinates=&name=&location=Braintree%2C+... - are you connected with them all already? Stage 32 lets you connect as well as share, so make sure you check out the acting lounge and feel free to upload as many photos and videos as you'd like.
Hi Tomasz, from the pronunciation of your name im guessing your from poland? (please forgive me for being a smart ass if i have guessed wrong). The UK is ok i guess haha, can be great, can be dull.. but life is what you make it right? Hey Linda, Im still finding my feet at what would suit me best at the moment. I've played as a zombie extra in a couple of films and love that, but I cant help feeling Id make an awsome bad guy, or maybe a funny, kids comedy type of guy. Kinda like the late robin williams when he played patch adams, or mrs doubtfire

You're absolutely correct John - if you're seeing a lot of Zs in a name it's safe to assume that I'm Polish, as my ancestors main goal in live was to beat everybody in Scrabble. P.S. Love zombie movies, and UK provides the significant percentage of those, so I might have seen you on the screen already. Quick advice - When you have a chance try to get a reel of your acting (as a bad guy / comedy character / etc) - you can then upload your reel to Stage 32 and ask other members to evaluate your skill. That might help you hone in on what you're meant to do.
Welcome John... aw the acting bug... that's great. Good luck.

Those would be fun roles John. I think it would be fun to play a bad or crazy person. But, I like to write about it, I have no desire to act. I believe that is an incredible talent to have, and I will leave it to the professionals like you.
