Headline News: MayDay MayDay...Booked and wrapped 2 days on set!
Season 11 is underway filming, with season 12 already in the works for next year. But wait first things first. So great to be back on with some familiar faces, this time I'm filming my first TV series as a full ACTRA Member. Nice. Air dates to be announced likely in the new year some time around late Winter/early Spring.
Celebrating that success I indulged myself in a McDonald's McCafe TV commercial. And in 4 hours on set I had consumed close to 7 Lattes. Wow was the drive home quick! At least it felt like it. Followed by a workout and run resulting in my fasted 5km time yet! Recent news:
Took in TIFF 2011, awesome event!
On the TIFF under-card was a feature film I had been involved with over the last few years. "DEFINING INSTINCTS" had its world premiere screening. Proud to say that with much heralded praise and reviews, we've been granted another 2 screenings: September 28th 1:00 and 7:00pm at the Carlton Cinema. Join us.
Acting work completed:
Lifeforce Entertainment's web series "In The Rough" has been completed and launched. Enjoy this production online at www.intherough.tv and look for me as Buck Ireland, the nemesis to the story's hero. A fun role indeed..tee hee hee..
A short film called "The Lakeview" also recently aired on CBC 's Reflections Sunday Nights @ midnight. You can see it here & now (OK copy and paste)

Commercial spots currently on air include:
Dempster's Bread ("Proud Son")
Look for it soon: McDonald's commercial with me as a hockey coach (sipping the warmth and goodness that is McDonald's: a part of your traditional daily routine...oh by the way, that's not a tagline, that's just me rambling).
"Neutered" a short comedic film, waiting word on its release. Directed by RT! who with his company had 17 nominations in the most recent MMVA.
"MY FATHER & THE MAN IN BLACK" is a feature film I had a role in that is nearing post production completion and quite possibly could be on the TIFF 2012 calender. Currently recording ADR which indicates complete final production is near.
It's a wonderful story about fathers and sons. It's a bio pic about the agent & manager, Saul Holiff, a Canadian from London Ontario, who shaped and guided the career path of Johnny Cash. Stayed tuned for exciting BIG news on this one.
