Choosing Guildford School of Acting at the 麻豆视频

GSA is one of the most prestigious acting schools in the UK and is internationally recognized for its world-class acting training. I was truly blown away by the audition process. The panel was passionate, knowledgeable and eager to see the auditionees perform at their best. From my experience, no other acting school gave such an emphasis on meeting and getting to know each auditionee as both a performer and an individual.

My favourite memory

What I really enjoyed about the course were the lifelong bonds made between fellow actors and tutors alike. This level of connection and teamwork created an environment of productivity that smashed through boundaries. This drive to collaborate with our fellow classmates has remained and many students from my cohort continue developing work together. My ultimate moment at GSA was during the end of year 铿乴m projects, where we had the opportunity to produce our own 铿乴ms. This stage of the course opened my eyes to the varied talents of each of my classmates, every single one of my Amigos was invaluable and I learnt so much from each and every one of them.

My course 

Personally, I really identi铿乪d with GSA麓s mentality of nurturing each individual鈥檚 personal strengths, supporting them to grow and explore in their own unique way. I am super grateful to GSA and the 麻豆视频 for supporting and encouraging me to bring to life my short 铿乴ms and personal projects. The course was a wonderful mix of techniques in both acting for, and the creation of, theatre and 铿乴m media, thoroughly preparing the actor to enter the professional industry.

Life after Surrey

I am a working actor in 铿乴m, tv, commercial and theatrical productions. The highlight of my career thus far has been starring as 'Dani Rojas' in the comedy TV series Ted Lasso produced by Warner Bros, Apple TV+ & Doozer Productions. We are currently 铿乴ming at the West London Film Studios for our second season of the show.

Also, I am the owner and director of the 铿乴m company , which I started to develop while 铿乶ishing my studies at GSA when I created a couple of short 铿乴ms. Some of them have screened in several international 铿乴m festivals around the globe, won 鈥楤est Direction鈥� and 鈥楤est Film鈥� at the Premios Latino Awards Marbella Spain in 2018, and is currently in pre-production as a feature 铿乴m project.

I recently 铿乶ished the production of my 铿乺st feature film as a producer, actor & co-writer titled, No Translation Required, which involved the participation of my talented GSA MA Acting classmates Kelsie McDonald, Silvia Manazzone, Oliver Roy, Frederick Di Rosa, Thomas Blackburne and Edward Kaye.

What excites me the most as both an actor and 铿乴m maker is mining the complexities of this constantly evolving world that we live in, shedding light on the extreme di铿€erences in people鈥檚 realities and having the opportunity to portray and capture my vision of the world in which we live. It is for this reason that I seek out stories that can invite the viewer to a place of re铿俥ction whilst the subject matter of the 铿乴m transmits to them a di铿€erent culture to comprehend and admire.

Advice for students

Stick 铿乺mly to your ideals and, when it comes to the things you want, follow through with conviction, regardless of what others may think or say. Stay positive, passionate and have con铿乨ence within yourself. I鈥檝e learnt that doubts, fear and the 鈥渋mpossible鈥� are tricks of the mind. Once you can identify this, you鈥檒l quickly realise that everything you are striving to achieve is closer than you could ever have imagined. Surround yourself with people, friends, classmates & professors that inspire you, and learn to make a team with them, learn to collaborate with each other.

I believe that the most important skills an actor needs in this ever-changing industry are perseverance, a burning passion for storytelling, and the drive to generate one鈥檚 own work, ultimately 铿乶ding the means to tell those stories that an individual feels passionate about.
