Graduates creating a big buzz

April 30, 2015 by jacintaw

Graduates creating a big buzz:  Original article at NewsLocal by James Gorman 29 April 2015

BUDDING actors are flocking to Surry Hills to follow in the footsteps of Australian stars making it big in Hollywood.

Todd Lasance ( Spartacus, Fools Gold, Home & Away, Cloud Street), Chris Hemsworth ( Thor, The Avengers), Yvonne Strahovski ( Dexter), Meegan Warner ( Turn), Stef Dawson ( Mockingjay 1 & 2), and Christian Clark ( Home & Away) are just some of the talent forged at Surry Hills acting institute Screenwise, which celebrates its 15th anniversary in September.

Principal Director, CEO and veteran actor Denise Roberts said while acting has always been a popular career choice for many young Sydneysiders, it was the success of talent like Hemsworth and Lasance which has sparked even more interest.

However, with only 34 positions at the school available each year, Roberts admitted it takes a special talent to secure a spot.

“We receive hundreds of applications each year however we are only looking for the very best,” she said.

Roberts founded Screenwise in order to meet the demand for more Australian actors in film and television.

“I come from Scotland originally and there were no opportunities over there when I was younger for people to become actors. You had to go to London back then and it was kind of the same situation here in Sydney,” she said. “You had NIDA, of course, but there really wasn’t much else.”

Roberts said while skill and training were invaluable assets to an actor, sometimes the difference between success and failure came down to sheer luck.

“If you want a career in the acting industry you have to be highly skilled because there is always competition out there and while you can be highly trained, luck has a lot to do with it, you sometimes need to be in the right place at the right time.”

The Australian actor said she has witnessed first-hand the rise in interest from young Sydneysiders eager to enter the world of performing arts.

Peter Andrikidis Masterclass

December 2, 2014 by jacintaw

Here’s your chance to work with Australia’s leading Director, Peter Andrikidis (Alex & Eve, Fat Tony & Co, Janet King, Underbelly, Bikie Wars, Serangoon Road, East West 101). Voted by the Sydney Morning Herald in 2013 as one of Australia’s Top 50 Influential People, Peter’s impressive directing CV represents a unique opportunity for actors attending this Masterclass.

The Masterclass will be held on Saturday 31 January 2015, for one day only. Places are extremely limited, so book now here. 

ABOUT PETER ANDRIKIDIS

Peter Andrikidis graduated from AFTRS (Film Direction) in 1981 as one of the youngest students. He was immediately recruited to Crawford Productions where he went on to direct numerous dramas productions culminating in producing a series of Flying Doctors (RFDS).

Peter believes his real ‘coming of age’ was on the ABC drama G.P., in which he also became Producer. “I developed a deep understanding of story and script, shaping screenplays with the talented writers on G.P. Operating at the ABC was a wonderful creative process which was encouraged by Drama Heads Penny Chapman and Sue Masters.”

Wildside, the groundbreaking drama series is Peter’s greatest directing achievement, he thinks. Two episodes, which Peter directed, won a total of eight AFIs including Best Direction.

He then went on to direct the entire ABC series Grass Roots written by Geoffrey Atherden. This series went on to win seven AFI’s over two seasons including Best Direction. It also won a New York Festival Award.

In 2001 he directed the telemovie My Husband, My Killer with Colin Friels and David Field, which also won numerous awards and his third AFI for Best Direction.

In 2002 and 2003 Heroes’ Mountain (drama telemovie about the Thredbo Rescue) and Jessica (mini-series with Sam Neill) each won a Silver Hugo for Best Direction and a Gold/Silver Plaque for Best Drama at the Chicago International Television Awards. Sam Neill also won a Silver Logie along with the Jessica production for Best Mini-Series.

In 2004/5 Peter directed five telemovies of BlackJack for the Ten Network, which featured Colin Friels solving cold-crime cases, which again won numerous awards including direction.

2006 saw Peter direct the $15 million dollar co-production with the Granada – ITV The Incredible Journey of Mary Bryant with Romola Garai, Jack Davenport and Sam Neill. This screened to eight million viewers in the UK. It won an AFI, a Logie, and a New York Festival Award for Best TV Mini-series and a Silver Plaque for Best Direction at the Chicago Awards.

In April 2006 he was voted one of the Top Ten Directors in Encore Magazine’s article ‘Celebration of the Industry’s Finest’. The list included Baz Luhrmann, Gillian Armstrong, Phillip Noyce and Rolf De Heer.

Peter was awarded with a Centenary Medal for ‘Outstanding services to Australian Society and Film Production’ in 2003. He has a reputation for getting excellent performances from actors (an actor’s director) and bringing exciting visual flair to each production he undertakes.

Todd Lasance stars in ANZAC Girls

August 20, 2014 by jacintaw

Original article at news.com.au by Andrew Fenton
10 August 2014

Todd Lasance  – he’s he’s been a muscle-bound Caesar in Spartacus: War of the Damned, a homicide cop in Underbelly and a Comanchero in Bikie Wars: Brothers in Arms, but off screen Todd Lasance admits to terrible nerves and doubt.

The first day the former Home and Away star stepped on to the New Zealand set of Spartacus — his first big American TV project — he was sick with anxiety.

“I did feel like vomiting with nerves, but I always get that, I’m always doubting myself, doubting what I’m doing. ‘Am I going to be able to pull this off ?’; ‘Holy crap I’m playing Caesar and everyone’s going to see through me!’” the 29-year-old says.

But it couldn’t have gone better, with the third and final season pulling six million viewers a week on US cable TV and talk of a spin-off.

Unfortunately for Lasance, showrunner Steven S. DeKnight had already decided to pull the pin before his episodes even aired.

“It was literally at its peak in numbers and reviews when he dropped it,” he says.

“He was really cautious about not dragging it out and letting it lose numbers.”

Two months ago Lasance packed up his life and headed to Los Angeles to capitalise on his growing recognition.

Before that, he threw heart and soul into ABC mini-series ANZAC Girls, needing little coaxing to join the show, shot late last year.

Lasance plays Major Sydney Cook, the son of a former prime minister and husband of Sister Elsie Cook (Laura Brent) — one of the five military nurses around whom the drama is built.

Their marriage is complicated by the fact nurses weren’t allowed to serve if they were married.

Based on the book The Other Anzacs, ANZAC Girls marks the 100th anniversary of the conflict with the untold story of the 3500 Australian and New Zealand nurses who served at Gallipoli and the Western Front.

“I read it and just fell in love with it,” Lasance says. “I was sold within days.”

Lasance has long been fascinated by the world wars, spurred in part by his grandfather who fought in World War II.

Lasance’s Twitter feed has a photo of him proudly wearing Grandad’s medals on Anzac Day this year.

With a flood of film and TV projects marking the centenary of the conflict, what separates ANZAC Girls from the pack?

“I think it’s going to be the most realistic depiction so far and a fresh perspective on something that had a massive impact on our history,” Lasance says.

“People forget or overlook the experiences these women had. This story needs to be told.”

Meanwhile, in modern-day LA, Lasance has been a jobbing actor before, but this time hopes to pick up more substantial roles than “Frat Boy#2” in rom-com Fool’s Gold.

He says the fans of Spartacus are “hardcore”.

“It’s not, ‘Oh, I catch it every now and then’, they’ve watched the whole thing and can quote all the lines!” he says.

But even with a big show on his resume, the audition process is tough.

“It’s really cutthroat — you’re going for some massive projects,” he says.

“Sometimes … you do hours and hours of prep and literally have 90 seconds to prove your worth.

“It’s pretty harrowing. A lot of people crumble from the nerves and I feel that pressure a lot as well.”

Fortunately, he’s surrounded by a community of like-minded Aussies, including half the former cast of Home and Away, with Luke Mitchell, Rebecca Breeds, Kain O’Keeffe and various Hemsworth brothers in town.

He’s also good mates with Christian Antidormi from Spartacus.

“It’s a cool little Aussie community actually,” he says.
