Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

142 - Sean McHugh - Side Roles, Mafia & Set Friends 🎭🎥
Q: So, what would be a dream role for you in a vertical to do?
McHugh would like to play a detective in a spy thriller, as a flawed antihero with a strong moral code who bends rules to catch criminals. He also expressed interest in making a small independent feature.
142 - Sean McHugh - Side Roles, Mafia & Set Friends 🎭🎥
Q: How did you end up in the first one? Was it accidentally you saw it on actors access or how did you get?
McHugh had auditioned for roughly 20 to 30 roles before booking his first vertical drama. He did not know the format beforehand, but treated the script as an acting opportunity and found the set much like a conventional production, with the camera framed vertically.
143 - Jennings Brower - Flips, Lucifer & a Superhero in Training 🦸‍♂️✨
Q: Was it hard for you to let go of the character and switch back to the private Jennings?
He says his Meisner approach lets him return to himself when a scene ends, although emotionally intense scenes can call for a few minutes to recover.
143 - Jennings Brower - Flips, Lucifer & a Superhero in Training 🦸‍♂️✨
Q: What does the dream of being a superhero mean to you now as the grown Jennings?
Brower sees superheroism as treating others with kindness, respect, and love, and making choices that benefit people beyond oneself.
139 - Noah Andre - Finding His Voice, On Set and Beyond...
Q: What makes a script good for you? What is needed that you feel good doing this?
Andre values realistic dialogue, clear and plausible storylines, and characters with depth and development. He says repetitive lines and surface-level characters make scripts difficult to memorize and less rewarding to perform.
