A parent who no longer has all the time you used to have to make the art you want? Do you see yourself as an actress or one who creates and produces as well? A filmmaker who has managed to get 3 shorts into festivals? A writer who has written in many mediums from stage to prose to film? I know that the way we see ourselves dictates many of our actions. What we think we are, we make the priority to do. See yourself as someone who produces and markets new art (in whatever form that may come be in songs, videos or books) and you are more likely to actually find the time in the corners of your life to make it happen. See yourself as someone who is too busy to create and I can guarantee that your creative dreams remain just that dreams. I have just added the hashtag filmmaker to my Twitter bio. It seems a little insane to do so but it is actually correct. In the last month I have created, shot, edited and produced 3 standalone Singing Psychic sketches and then done all the posting online etc. Once I had broken my huge inner resistance of the making and posting of the first one (including the going to bed on the Saturday night before posting worrying my dramatic acting career was about to be destroyed ;)). Each one since has become easier as I have accepted that making The Singing Psychic videos is fundamental to me developing her as a character, as a brand and also building an audience. I have to fill a West End theatre for six nights in August so I am starting now Plus I am loving doing it!! Lessons I have learnt in the last four weeks of being a filmmaker (well a very short film but still!) Each short film (we are talking 2-3 mins) has got better, the editing the cuts, the lighting. Each film I make I get braver – this one had outdoor shots and 3 locations in total. Each film I learnt something new, video 1 I stressed about exporting it so it didn’t look weird with audio/video on YouTube, this recent one I was stressing about how to put my new The Singing Psychic logo onto the video as a watermark at the end. My logo was created by my fabulously brilliant art director/graphic designer extraordinaire Martin Butterworth. Each film I have got quicker at making and editing. I have now starting detaching the audio, playing with positioning it against imported images  and not being afraid I will make it look weird and not be able to put it right! Each film I have learnt something new about social media reach. This new one I posted onto Facebook directly via their upload function as opposed to posting on YouTube then posting the Youtube link onto Facebook. I got 300 Facebook views in 20 hours and 75 on YouTube – my audience is largely on Facebook – I have over a thousand followers, 99% I know well. I need to learn more! It is important to learn what you need to know as a Just In Time process – I have been listening to podcasts on the way to my current three days a week modelling job and from that I learnt re the native Facebook video importance. I am clueless about ‘seeding’ – that’s when you let friends and possible influences know about your blog or video, so I am focusing on listening to podcasts on that subject. I would like people to see my work I mean I stayed in all Saturday and said no to dates so I could make it #AskMarysia I am also going to start shooting  a series of weekly short podcasts and videos on the various questions I keep getting on twitter, via my blog and also in person as friends and followers see how my career progressing nicely forward. So if you have any questions you want me to tackle let me know via any of my social media links including Twitter @MarysiaT and via this blog contact form. #AskMarysia   Whilst I am not an Oscar winning actress (yet ;))) I am a working actress, as in it’s pay[...] #AskMarysia, Actors, Filmmakers, Gratitude, Inspiration, Motivation, Musicians, Writers Marysia Trembecka Actress/Blogger/Writer & Performer of her own shows no no https://loveyourcreativity.com/2015/02/21/riding-on-the-rollercoaster-of-a-creative-life/ https://loveyourcreativity.com/2015/02/21/riding-on-the-rollercoaster-of-a-creative-life/#respond Sat, 21 Feb 2015 14:00:39 +0000 http://loveyourcreativity.com/?p=3388 https://loveyourcreativity.com/2015/02/21/riding-on-the-rollercoaster-of-a-creative-life/feed/ 0 https://loveyourcreativity.com/2013/12/10/david-monteith-a-bad-day-acting-is-better-than-a-good-day-doing-anything-else/ https://loveyourcreativity.com/2013/12/10/david-monteith-a-bad-day-acting-is-better-than-a-good-day-doing-anything-else/#respond Tue, 10 Dec 2013 14:00:03 +0000 http://loveyourcreativity.com/?p=2149 https://loveyourcreativity.com/2013/12/10/david-monteith-a-bad-day-acting-is-better-than-a-good-day-doing-anything-else/feed/ 0 0:32:38 Podcast 30:David Monteith, award winning podcaster, actor, director and tutor.

I did a class with David years ago on podcasting and also used to be in a singing class with his now wife Siobhan. David is an award winning podcaster ‘Geek Syndicate’ who also acts, directs and teaches. He has just been an understudy in the West End play ‘Fences’ and directed Monteverdi Orfeo for Isleworth Baroque to great acclaim (‘best production they’ve done in 10 years’ was his favourite review).. He was on the committee for the British Comic Awards (as in comic books) and hosted the award ceremony. He also interviewed the ex Dr’s Colin Baker, Sylvester McCoy and Peter Davison and current writer/producer Steven Moffat at the Dr Who 50th celebration last weekend. ‘Best way to network is to be really good and be really easy to work with’. ‘If you make space and open it up to the universe, then take that step of faith, If you don’t make the space, what is going to come along to fill it as it is already filled with whatever nonsense is there to buy food.’ Before we get into our conversation I am doing a free workshop on ‘Five Ways To Blast Through Creative Blocks And Get Your Project Done’ this Thursday, details here. David started podcasting 8 years  ago, him and his friend recorded the first one whilst drunk on very expensive whiskey, within 3 to 4 years they has 2000 downloads a week. It has taken him places he would have never have been otherwise. There is a podcast network of ten to eleven under the umbrella of Geek Syndicate, back in the early days first people would ask about the name and then they would ask ‘what is a podcast?’, that was where they were when it started, noone then knew. They got nominated many times for the podcast awards but kept being competed against a Harry Potter podcast. They did win eventually in a different category David has been understudying in Fences, a West End play which Lenny Henry stars. He teaches twitter, podcast and acting classes of various levels.. He was in Jamaica for a year in 1999 and was thinking he wanted to be an actor. He returned to London and was drinking with a friend in Soho, saying ‘I want to act but I think I’ve left it too late’ This drunk guy who was standing next to them went ‘F*** Off, I am 40 years old and I am doing a part time acting evening course at the City Lit’, so David went off to that and now he teaches that very course 13 years later. 5 years later after the evening class he left to act, ‘the scariest thing I had ever done, I had a job and no idea what would happen after’ ‘Stuff is waiting to happen but you can’t see it if you are too busy getting in with normal life,’ I said as as an actor you can create drama in life as opposed to be on stage, be unnecessarily dramatic in relationships, when you clear the rubbish out, then drama gets back to where it belongs on the stage. David thinks he is there again, he is teaching so much that he needs to make space for his acting again. ‘Feed yourself as well as others.’ Siobhan, his wife is a fantastic classical singer so she and a friend asked David to oversee/direct a project. He was very ignorant on the world of opera and he thought they were all fuddy duddies but realised he was wrong having met Siobhan. They asked him to direct them and he wasn’t sure he liked opera anyway. However they asked ‘can you bring a sense of theatre to it?’, and off they went. He now teaches bringing a sense of acting to the performance, He often finds people are singing words they do not understand without any idea of what they mean. If you ask a writer for advice ‘just write something, the act of writing invokes something else, and gives ideas. Sometimes you just have to do stuff’ I talk about my jazz album from years ago and now one of the songs Londontown has a dance remix, and we are planning to release a dance single. Weird how creativity can evolve.
