Role

Ryan (Lead)

Hunted was my second short film production. Having already performed 2035 and it being a year later, I wanted to embark on another short film. Auditions were uploaded on an actors website to which I reached out to and performed an audition over zoom. Fortunately I was successful and landed the role as Ryan.

Ryan was a character in which as an actor I had to fill in a lot of the blanks for. The story consisted on two average guys being chased by a Hitman whilst trying to resolve their conflicts between each other. 

It was overall a similar experience to 2035, just on a lower budget. I did however for my first time work with a lavalier microphone which is something I've always wanted to have being a tech geek myself.

Transitioning between stage performances and film performances have always been somewhat interesting to me simply due to the fact that with stage performances majority of the time we're always told to make it bigger however with film performances you can have what is known as 'micro-expressions' because the audience theoretically can be much closer than what a stage audience can be.

Hunted unfortunately never released due to technical errors and loss of footage. The experience wasn't entirely wasted however, as I met fellow actor Connor McCausland who I enjoyed working with, alongside The Director, Ben Morley.
