Typecast

Recently, I've had two acting gigs.

One was playing job applicant Marco Duran, in the jawdroppingly compelling short 'Flunky', directed by Bernardo Camisao.

The second was playing job applicant John Driver, for an industrial role-play, as part of a training course.

The most striking coincidence, other than their striking good looks, is that these men are both job applicants.

Typecasting? Or perhaps I've found my niche...

I need an acting job, and if you need an under-employed actor to play someone who needs a job, well then you've come to the right place.

What did that last sentence mean?

It doesn't matter. Like a mobius strip chasing its own tale, the journey is the end in and of itself.
