night-of-the-templar

How long have you been directing? 

I directed traffic once, when I was a kid. There was a ‘pile up’ ….not saying it was intentional on my end. But man, it was fun. After that, Night of the Templar was my ‘film’ Directorial Debut. And no, there were no car crashes in that one.

 

Have you ever played a role in a movie you directed? 

Only Night of the Templar, I played two (2) roles, an intense medieval knight, Lord Gregoire, and a laid back modern day ‘dude’, Jake McCallister.

 

What are some bad habits that you’ve seen actors develop that you’ve had a hard time dealing with? 

Anticipation. When an actor rehearses a scene or after a couple of takes they start to ‘anticipate’ the next line of the moment in front of them, it is no longer organic. It’s like they act, or rather ‘react’ to the moment before it happens. And of course it’s always horrid when an Actor is unprepared or doesn’t get his/her mind fully into the character.

 

Have you ever encountered someone who had absolutely no talent? And did you have to break it to them? 

Yes, and No. Of course I encountered people who had no talent. I’ve been doing this forever. But no, it’s not my position to judge or hurt someone. Plenty of times I’ve worked through ‘stuff’ with people and try to help as much as I could. I guess in the sense of ‘constructive’ criticism, yes, I want to help those I want to do better. But just telling someone they suck is just mean and has no benefit. I like to see people try and improve….on all levels.

 

 

What is your philosophy on the profession of acting? 

Become the ball hahahhhhaahhaahaha….

 

 

What, in your opinion, is the difference between a star and an actor? Can they be interchangeable? 

I don’t know, you can make a ‘star’ out of an actor. That’s just marketing, coaching, exposure, the right project, et cetera…And I guess you can make an ‘actor’ out of a star, if they’re not one already, as long as their ego permits learning and growing.

Blurb:

Alyssa St. James enters Blackwood Castle in a thunderstorm as The Tudor Falcon swoops above her head and she meets Dark Castle Lord, Derek Hayden.

Will they find love in a castle haunted by King Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn or will The Tudor Falcon reign forever?

Excerpt:

Alyssa St. James had known upon her arrival at Blackwood Castle that a thunderstorm would be awaiting her. She was almost always right in her premonitions.

 

The cab driver reduced his speed as the rain poured down upon the road. The taxi swung around the curve with a screech of the brakes and skidded on the wet tarmac.

 

“How far are we from the castle?” she asked the cab driver.

 

“Less than five minutes down this deserted road,” he answered.

 

Deserted road was right. Looking through the cab window, Alyssa could see nothing. The storm had darkened the sky and the only illumination she could see was from the lightning and the car headlights. The trees and hills were endless.

 

“Are you sure you want to go to Blackwood Castle?” he asked in a worried tone. “It’s haunted by The Tudor Falcon.”

 

“Yes!” Alyssa answered with more conviction than she felt. She wrapped her arms tightly around herself. She tried to focus on what she came here for and subdue all the unwanted memories churning through her.
