So You Want To Be A Film Actor?

Exclusive Interview with Film Actor, Writer & Producer Damon Shalit

(Left to Right Director Gabriel Bologna and Actor Damon Shalit from African Gothic)

I managed to interview Actor Damon Shalit at the Durban International Film Festival and ask him some questions about Film Acting, Writing and Producing.  Here is what he had to say.

What does an actor do?

An actor serves the text, the actor serves the writer.

Tell us about African Gothic and your part?

In 2005 in LA I was performing in the stage play of 'Diepe Grond' the play on which the movie is based.   It was a long run and well received.  I thought this would make a great movie.  It was a long process to get options.  I made it happen.  We shot the film in Central California.  All actors in central roles are South Africans.

What advice do you have for writing a script?

The play is an incredible blueprint.  Cinema is images.  I asked myself how do I expand this play?
I feel we achieved this.  I had to write characters and bring characters to life.  You have to know what to trim.

Advice for would be actors?

Enjoy the journey.  It's about the journey.  Love the work.  It is such a fickle, unpredictable business.  If you fall in love with the work it does not matter where it leads.

Film or Theatre?

My first love has always been theatre.  Film is a different medium.
Stage from an actor viewpoint.  Film from a creative view.  Film acting is about simplicity and thoughts.  You don't see that in theatre.

What's next for you?

I have a few projects in the works.

How do you keep in shape?

Cross-Fit and Squash

The Breakfast Stack Pumps You Up and Things to Do this Weekend Around Town

Breakfast Stack fills up petrol tanks.

(Pic - East Coast Radio) 

East Coast Radio’s Breakfast Stack team decided to treat some motorists to a full tank of fuel in light of rising petrol costs. After last month’s steep increase in fuel, the price shot up a further 32 cents a litre earlier this week.  East Coast Radio’s fuel fairy stepped in to assist ten motorists by filling up their tanks for free.

The Breakfast Stack’s Darren Maule says, “The rising cost of petrol almost seems insurmountable, so when we had an opportunity to spend R5000 on other people’s fuel I jumped at the opportunity.” Fellow presenter Ramona Kasavan donned fairy wings, a wand, a tutu and cash in hand to spread some cheer, “The motorists shared how severely the rising petrol price is affecting their household income. They say they’re considering lift clubs or only having one car as a family. So it was great to be able to help a few people out.”

One listener Amanda Risi says she was in desperate need of petrol and had prayed about petrol and then heard about the ‘fuel fairy’ on-air. She raced to the petrol station, with just R20 in her wallet, and was overjoyed that she received a full tank for free. Maule says, “We give away other big prizes and this could be seen as small, but in actual fact the gratitude at this random act of kindness was amazing, people were just so relieved.”

Call for MUSHO 2014 proposals

IT’S THAT TIME AGAIN!!!!

The Performing Arts Network of South Africa (PANSA) in KZN will host the ninth Musho! International Theatre Festival of one and two person theatre, in Durban from January 2014, celebrating the art of the one and two-performer plays.

'Musho’ - isiZulu for an enthusiastic praise response, something similar to 'Bravo!' - embraces many forms of theatre: from mime to physical theatre, drama to comedy-theatre.  It pays tribute to the smaller works featuring one and two performers.  These are intimate productions that showcase the skill of theatre performance and storytelling, as well as covering a wide range of styles, from drama to comedy and physical theatre.

After extensive research, PANSA realized that a festival early in the year staging more intimate theatrical productions is considered a useful and exciting start to the year by performers and audiences alike.  Musho! benefits the performers as staging their shows and collecting reviews early in the year helps them for future seasons of the production through the year.  The audiences love seeing an array of fabulous theatre early in the year when calendars are quiet and when the festive flurry is over.

The festival is organised by PANSA KZN, the Performing Arts Network of South Africa. If you have a play or theatre piece that will be suitable for our festival feel free to send in your proposal to kzn@pansa.org.za
All proposals are read by a selection committee of local theatre professionals, and successful applicants will be contacted in October 2013.


Selection criteria for the festival include:

• The work must have one or two persons only performing
• The work should be an innovative and interesting concept
• The work should have potential appeal for local audiences
• The work should be classifiable as theatre (with a discernable narrative)
• The company or individual should have a good track-record and reputation
• The work should not have played in Durban in the past 12 months
• The work should be 50-70 minutes in length


Participants are paid for their participation in the festival.  The amount paid per performance will be confirmed at a later date, and is subject to the funding that PANSA receives.

Contracts will be drawn up between the artists and the festival once selection and confirmation procedures have been concluded, in October 2013.

Proposal guidelines and compulsory information.

1.     Contact person
2.     Contact address ,telephone,number, email
3.     Name of the show
