What role did you have in the film?
I played the part of Jake Peters (the lead) who is a young teenager that falls into the wrong crowd because he is trying to fit in. Jake is faced with many difficult decisions in the plot.
What was the best part of the filming experience?
The best part of the filming experience is when you finally ace a difficult scene that has taken many takes and the people watching congratulates you. A really funny thing happened while filming was during one of the more intense scenes when I had to run up the stairs and Itripped and fell hard... everyone started laughing!
What was the most difficult part of filming or preparing for filming?
The most difficult part of preparing for my role was the wide range emotions that my character goes through like happy, angry, sad, sarcastic, nervousness etc. It was also difficult because I had alot of lines in the script.
What do you hope this film accomplishes?
I hope this film gets shown to as many teenagers as possible, as it reveals that drugs can have a huge negative effect on your life and the lives around you. Nothing good comes from drugs (its all about lies and money).
What other film projects have you worked on?
The only other film I have worked on was last year in "The Instigator," where I was a bully in an anti-Bullying film. This year I have a much larger role, a character who is an average teenager trying to fit in with my peers; completely different roles.
What's next for you (in the industry)?
My goal is to learn all the fundamentals of acting (through schooling), get a talent agent, pursue as many auditions as possible, while taking my acting career a little further each time.
What advice do you have for others trying to get into the industry?
All I have to say is go to every audition you can and get involved with as many productions as possible... even if it's just background roles..
Any other points, comments, etc?
Working on this film was a ton of fun and everyone who worked on it was great. Anything KG productions does is always great. I cant wait to see what other future projects they have in mind.
