Hey Abyss,
This is my last week in Nova Scotia before I head back to Montreal in prep for school, which starts on the 4th.
I finish my final week at The Marigold Centre with a great group of kids tomorrow. They have been awesome to work with, really open to my weird suggestions and are very creative. It has been a joy to spend my last week with them.
I only hope that I have inspired them enough to come back next year and hopefully have given them some direction in their own careers. They have certainly taught me a lot.
Filming Mr. D, last week was a good time. I ended up not having any lines which was disappointing, but am on screen quite a bit (basically glorified background; you have to start somewhere). Everyone was super nice on set and treated me with the upmost respect, which was really nice. Most of the crew recognized me from last year and we really interested in how school had gone for me, which was really cool.
One of the best parts of working in Halifax is that it is almost always the same crew members working on the sets, which creates some good relationships and contacts. Although the character 'return' was not exactly what I anticipated I am still extremely grateful for the opportunity to return to the show.
Here is hoping to a third season, and perhaps an expansion on my story line!
I have high hopes!
Some recent good news is that Blackbird (the film I shot last summer) is also part of the Atlantic Film Festival in Halifax, Nova Scotia and the Cinefest Sudbury International Film Festival in Ontario.
So the film is going to be seen by quite a few people and get quite a bit of coverage.
The dates so far are September 9th at 9:45pm and the 10th at 2pm for TIFF.
September 16th at 7:10pm at Parklane Mall in Halifax for the AFF.
And for the Cinefest check out here: http://cinefest.com/tempfilmsandschedule/
I feel so blessed to have this film playing so many places and perhaps you can catch me at one of these festivals on the big screen!
I am going off the grid for the next 4 days, because my girlfriend and I are going on vacation before I take off for a while. You can still tweet to me @wayne_burns and continue to check out my IMDB!
