I am absolutely delighted that Marie was able to share her industry knowledge with my B.A.B.E. readers about demo reels for Disney. With Disney movies like ‘Into The Woods‘ being shot in the UK right now (and obviously other Disney movies in LA and NY and the world) it’s important as actors that we think […]

With the recent knowledge of a wonderful acting friend passing away, I wanted to dedicate this post to Amanda, a truly beautiful, talented and giving individual who will always have a piece of my heart. There’s so much beauty in the world that I would hate for a second to miss it. And the great […]
Following on from a talk I heard last week with some wonderful filmmakers (directors, producers and actors) I am massively inspired (it was 12.30am when I wrote this as a draft) and keen to write down all the things I constantly want to share with filmmakers who are starting out. And it all focuses around […]
Felicity Jurd first appeared on B.A.B.E. a few months back with a wonderful post on voice overs. Felicity is now back to share some of the secrets to the art of performance…rehearsal!

As you will see in my e-blog (posting soon) I was delighted to see some beautiful sharing on set from co-workers recently.

Well if Adrian Grenier can have one, so can I. Right? Your personal entourage is extremely important. I bet if you sit down right now and make a list, there is a very good chance you have half a dozen people in that list already…if not more. Think about it. Let’s start with the easy […]
B.A.B.E. decided to get the low down from a fellow actor on all things related to the hustle. Now anyone who knows me, knows I love the words networking, hustling, catching up, socialising etc. And actors should know the importance of each of those terms. But one thing we must be mindful of is how much […]
Today is the International Day of Friendship and from the bottom of my B.A.B.E. heart I want to say thank you for being my friend. For every time you’ve shared the blog, each time you’ve told me what you enjoyed, every retweet you’ve sent, and every time you’ve liked a post, thank you for being my […]
You’re up in a helicopter looking down own your life, the contributions you made, your precious moments and your journey. St Peter is at the pearly gates (humour me) and he asks you “What’s the one word you’d use to describe your life?” Bam! St Peter wastes no time getting to the point does he. […]
