Magdalene Returns to the Screen. Tonight – at the Valletta Waterfront!

Screening this evening at the Valletta Waterfront is Magdalene.

I had the wonderful opportunity a few years back to play a deeply rich character in a 27 min short – set in a time period I love – the 1930s. Magdalene is a DGA and Emmy awarded short, directed by Rebecca Cremona and is about a former classical pianist who, to everyone else, looked like she was living “the American dream.” Only Magdalene knew the real truth of what her life had slowly become, and in a moment of clarity, she decides to make a choice to exit stage left with a lethal dose of Laudanum. Her plan however is interrupted … or is it?

So lovely to see that Magdalene is making her entrance once more and is screening this evening at the Valletta Waterfront as part of their Outdoor Cinema Nights Film Festival. I only wish I could be there in person.

Sending festival love to a film that will forever remain close to my heart – Magdalene.

N.I. – Official Selection at the San Jose International Short Film Festival!

Hello San Jose! Thrilled to learn that N.I. (Neo Intelligence) will be part of the official selection at the San Jose International Short Film Festival!

I had so much fun playing THE VOICE in this chilling short film directed by VFX Emmy nominated and award winning director, Sallyanne Massimini. The film stars Giorgia Whigham and David Meza and explores the idea of a new, more advanced form of Artificial Intelligence – one that could easily be assimilated into our modern day society.  One that moves beyond previous barriers to achieve the ultimate prize – the full integration of human emotions… This new form of intelligence … is called N.I.

Screening schedule to be announced in early September so stay tuned!

If you’d like to learn more about N.I., or to check out the film, please stop by our website at nishortfilm.com.

What if a more advanced form of Artificial Intelligence existed? Maybe it does … N.I. – a new short film!

What would happen if there was a new, more advanced form of Artificial Intelligence, one that could easily be assimilated into our modern day society? One that moves beyond previous barriers to achieve the ultimate prize – the full integration of human emotions? What if this new form of intelligence … was called N.I.

From VFX Emmy nominated and award winning director, Sallyanne Massimini, comes a gripping short film called N.I. (Neo Intelligence).  N.I stars Giorgia Whigam as Samantha and David Meza as Aaron. I had the immense pleasure of rounding out the cast as The Voice in this chilling piece.

Captured by the Captcha

Have you ever found yourself face to face with a Captcha that drove you crazy? Well then this comedy is for you. Here is a short that I had the pleasure of working on with the very talented Jeremy Saville who not only wrote this piece but also plays my hubby, Jim.  Poor Jim is just trying to get  us some concert tickets when he runs smack dab into the clutches of the evil Captcha.
