    The Actors' Post and Leeds Beckett University Partner Up Again

    After a successful “pilot” of a programme launched in 2019 with Leeds Beckett University's module team for Live Event Coverage, where students interviewed entertainment industry professionals from around the world, The Actors’ Post is back at it again in 2021!

     

    Over the coming days, 9 brilliant and accomplished artistes in their areas of expertise will be featured by a new cohort of talented students from the module. The students and artistes are currently in the midst of a schedule with interviews underway and managed by the students themselves. During these sessions, they will get to test their researching, interviewing and video editing skills, producing a 1-2 minute promo video of their randomly allocated artistes, which will contribute to their assessment grades.

    Tone "Death": 2020 So Far - The Pain & Insensitivity That Has Marred It

    My initial idea of what 2020 would be as a new year, with all its hope and the meant-to-be broken resolutions every calendar-flip brings, started out with a chat in a WhatsApp group with two of my closest buddies in December 2019. We joked around saying that the advertising tagline “2020 Vision” was going to be woefully overused as companies peddled their products and services, while professing it’s “clear to see” they would be the right choice for our hard earned money.

    As-Is vs. To-Be: Self-SWOTing with Alister Albert

    Whilst juggling work as a Business Analyst alongside being an Actor and Writer, I’ve learned quite a few methodologies, tools and techniques used to analyse, improve and assess businesses, their processes and how to make their operations more efficient. As creatives however, we’re constantly told by our agents/representatives, other self-help platforms, motivational speakers and careers advisors that managing yourself effectively and in a “business-like manner,” is one of the best ways to climb the personal, professional and more importantly (to this website) the entertainment industry ladder.

    Ragtime: The Revival

    We are currently in a time where individuality, standing out and achieving notoriety and success has subconsciously and blindly become the carefree obsession of the youth and the preoccupation of the older generation, who are motivated to achieve the lives they never had. However, whilst we are driven and distracted by these modern “ideals,” undertones of the social ills that plagued the 1950’s, 60’s (and beyond) are still prevalent in this world today…Even as we get ready to flip our calendars to 2020.

    The Question of Legacy

    On the evening of the 53rd edition of the always electric Super Bowl Sunday, I sat thinking about the countless reports linked to the National Football League’s poster boy Tom Brady and his improbable streak of success that has spanned his 18-year professional career. Vying for his unprecedented 6th Super Bowl title, in his 9th overall appearance in the American Football final is an unbelievable feat! (Just a heads up, numbers and their perceived importance will play a part later on in this piece!). Brady’s status as an all-time great championship Quarterback and leader is unquestionably secure. Many around the world regard him as the G.O.A.T - greatest of all time - at the Quarterback position or arguably, the best player who ever lived and played this game…period! A win on this day (which was accomplished after the time of this writing) would put him, his coach and team, the New England Patriots, in rarefied air; tying him and them with the Pittsburgh Steelers as the winningest entities in the history of the sport to win 6 Super Bowls.
