Hi Guys

There are a couple of "NOT TO BE MISSED" 
training courses happening this week.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND:

* Any course taught by Tom McSweeney - he is 
teaching in Sydney this next month and is 
fabulous. I did many courses and training days 
with Tom up on the Gold Coast and his courses 
are highly sought after.

* Dave Newman has a class with Christine King 
Casting - Dave is a great teacher, I trained with 
him years ago and the fact that he is now 
working in a very busy casting office is 
important!! Don't miss.

* Screenwise has some amazing courses. For 
the serious actor it is often difficult to find 
anything longer than an 8 week course. 
Screenwise has yearly programs and Showreel 
courses for the more experienced actors that 
are wonderful. I have also done lots of training 
at Screenwise over the years and the courses 
are great. Again - don't miss.

Have a great weekend.

Cheers
Lee

Jack Irish Telemovies move into Production. Filming in Melbourne
The Jack Irish telemovies started shooting on 
Monday after seven weeks in pre-production. 
Guy Pearce is playing the lead.

Most of the stories revolve around something 
which appears quite small, such as finding a 
missing person, but "before you know it, it's 
turned into a larger than life corporate 
conspiracy." Jack therefore meets a lot of 
people on the way through, meaning that the 
cast size will be comparably large.

They hope that the show will appeal to a broad 
demographic. Crime is always popular on 
television, but they wanted to create a "crime 
show with a distinctive heart." The show will be 
character-driven, with a central crime story as 
well as sub-plots. While on the surface it's quite 
blokey, he also thinks that it will appeal to a 
female audience as there is also a love interest 
played by Marta Dusseldorp. Jack is a bit out of 
practice with women, "which has its own charm 
in itself." There's also plenty of humour in the 
show.

They're working on a combined budget of $5.6m 
for the two telemovies (around $2.8m each). It's 
a bit more than the average telemovie cost, but 
the flipside is that an actor of Guy's standing 
helps to attract finance. "ABC, Screen Australia 
and Film Victoria contributed financially , along 
with the ZDF Enterprises who are our 
international distributor."

They'll be releasing the show for international 
sales at MIPTV in March 2012, and they hope 
that having Guy Pearce in the show will bring it 
some attention, particularly as he's been in the 
past two Oscar-winning movies and won an 
Emmy for Mildred Pierce.

They expect that the shows will be completed by 
about March 2012, but the screening dates are 
yet to be set.

Optus One80Project: Wannabe TV Or Filmmakers Listen Up.

Do you live for TV or film? Are you a secret whiz 
behind the camera? Or fancy yourself as the 
next Steven Spielberg? 

Well, now could be your chance to fill the big 
man's shoes as the Optus ONE80PROJECT is 
back and on the hunt for the next big thing in 
showbiz! 

Now in its sixth year, the joint project between 
Optus and MTV Australia, in association with 
Event Cinemas, is offering aspiring Aussie TV 
makers the opportunity to kick start their dream 
career. 

"The Optus One80Project is great proof of how 
many solid ideas and young, outgoing creative 
minds we have here in Australia," said 
Christiaan Van Vuuren, winner of last year's 
competition with his entry 'Sick.' 

"We couldn't believe we won. The judges from 
the One80Project were amazing and took the 
time out of their days to offer advice, introduce 
us to people and steer us in the right direction. 
We just finished shooting the pilot and couldn`t 
be happier with the quality of work and the team 
of individuals that we got to work with." 

So if you want a shot at the $180,000 production 
budget and a share in the $30,000 cash prize 
pool, including a cool $10,000 for the winner of 
the Public Vote Award, all you need to do is 
submit a 180-second pilot and treatment by 
January 14 2012. 

And in an Optus One80Project first, this year's 
competition is also offering a $5000 cash prize 
for the best pilot filmed on a mobile phone! 

The public vote opens on January 24 2012, and 
the top 10 entries will be selected by a panel of 
high-profile industry judges and screened at a 
live festival event in Sydney in March 2012.

CHRISTINE KING CASTING - 2011 CASTING & AUDITION WORKSHOPS

Christine King Casting will be holding four final 
Sydney audition and casting workshops for 2011 
in November. These will be held at our office 
and studio. These workshops will cover all 
aspects of casting and the audition process.

Dave Newman, who has been a casting director 
and associate at Christine King Casting for over 
5 years, will conduct the workshops. Dave has 
been personally involved in thousands of 
auditions for both US and Australian projects 
including TERRA NOVA (FOX/DREAMWORKS), 
THE PACIFIC (HBO, DREAMWORKS & PLAYTONE) 
, WOLVERINE ORIGINS (FOX), NARNIA:VOYAGE 
OF THE DAWN TREADER (FOX), DON'T BE 
AFRAID OF THE DARK (MIRAMAX), MATCHING 
JACK (CASCADE FILMS), RED DOG (WOSS FILM 
GROUP) and the award winning EAST WEST 101 
(SBS) series 1, 2. & 3. He has also worked 
extensively with actors during US pilot season. 
In addition, coming from an acting background, 
he can provide important insights to the 
casting/audition process from both sides of the 
fence.

The workshops will run for 5 1/2 hours (incl 30 
min lunch break) with numbers strictly limited to 
15 per class. Participants will be given 
individually chosen scenes and a character brief 
in advance, matched to their level of experience 
using both US and Australian scenes.
Each actor will be given the opportunity to work 
one on one with Dave on the prepared scene 
and learn from watching the other actors doing 
their scenes.
The auditions will be recorded and then used as 
a reference for our records.
In addition to the specific work on auditions in a 
relaxed, friendly environment the workshop will 
also cover how the casting process works, the 
relationship between producers/directors/casting 
& actors, audition techniques and approaches, 
preparation, what we look for, taking the 
pressure off, showreels, promoting and 
marketing yourself as an actor, false 
expectations and more. There will be a question 
and answer session (as well as the opportunity 
to ask questions throughout the workshop) - no 
question too silly. We may even have some fun 
- you're in this industry because you love it - it 
shouldn't be torture!

Sunday, Nov 6,13,20,27 - 9am - 1pm

This course is the first of its kind in Australia. 
You will be taken through the latest US acting 
craft methodologies with Vic Trevino and then 
directly implement the techniques that you have 
just learnt into a mock audition with Tom 
Mcsweeney every week. You will have both 
teachers in the same class every week. This 
course gives actors the rare opportunity to 
implement what they have learnt immediately 
for maximum learning effect.

This unique course is team-taught and will focus 
on what the actor needs to successfully 
accomplish in the audition room (from a working 
casting director's perspective) and how to make 
it all happen (from a working actor and master 
instructor's perspective). After being taught key 
craft methodologies, students will engage in a 
mock audition and work will be assessed in 
terms of strengths and weaknesses with an 
emphasis on how to approach weaknesses in 
students' work.

Students who actively engage in this class will 
have the opportunity to sharpen their 
auditioning skills by cultivating an understanding 
of what is required aesthetically (the craft of 
acting) and technically (the craft of filmmaking) 
in order to create truthful, honest behaviour on-
camera.

Popcorn Taxi - The Burning Man - v
Burning Man is the reckless, sexy, funny, 
moving and ultimately life-affirming story of 
Tom, a British chef in a Bondi restaurant, who 
seems to have decided there are no longer any 
rules he needs to obey.

Whatever Tom is up to, his actions seem to be 
tolerated by those around him. As Tom 
descends into darkness, fragments of a different 
story begin to emerge. All the women in his 
world are trying in their own, very different 
ways to help put him back together.

The film stars Matthew Goode, Bojana 
Novakovic, Essie Davis, Kerry Fox, Rachel 
Griffiths and Jack Heanly and was written and 
directed by Jonathan Teplitzky.

It has an amazing score created by the 
legendary Lisa Gerrard.

Brisbane International Film Festival 2011

3 Nov 2011 - 13 Nov 2011

This year`s Brisbane International Film Festival 
is just around the corner, with the 20th 
anniversary event kicking off in one week`s 
time!

That`s right - although BIFF itself takes over 
Brisbane from November 3 - 13, we`re getting 
things started with screenings on November 1 
and 2 because we`re simply too excited to wait.

We hope to see you at the Courier-Mail Curtain 
Raiser screenings, which provide a fitting 
prelude to the main event.

From November 3, BIFF is in full swing, starting 
with opening night and continuing this year`s 
festival of festivals for 11 fun-filled days.

From the State Library to our very own pop-up 
drive-in beside the Brisbane River, the festival 
truly has something for all tastes - and price 
ranges.

BIFF is committed to providing value to our 
patrons, from reduced rates on Opening Night 
tickets, to festival passes that reward frequent 
patrons with discounted prices.

Tickets are now on sale, and we recommend 
booking early to avoid disappointment.

Don`t forget to follow the festival on Twitter and 
Facebook to stay up to date with the latest 
news.

We look forward to seeing you at the movies!
