The Last Leaf at last...

Well, at last, The Last Leaf is finished and I got a copy of it last week. It was mad watching it after having filmed it nearly a year ago, but it looks really good. Now all we have to do is wait until poor Kathleen is less insanely busy so we can have an official screening and then she can market it for herself!



If you don't remember, the character I played was called Jonsy, short for Joanna. I spent most of this film being a very, very ill little Jonsy, lying in bed near death.



I like this shot. It's all gauzy and I don't look half bad, even though I'm still playing the near death sicky. It's the vaseline on the lens effect of shooting through the window!!



And suddenly, Jonsy is feeling sooo much better!



What is this you say? Is it the last leaf? Le Gasp! I think it is! Also featured in this shot is Niamh Daly who played Sudie. Anyway, it was nice to finally see it. And, I ran into Philip O'Sullivan who played the doctor and he was rather jealous that I'd got to have a look at it! :)

This week I have an audition for a student short film. The piece is a bit creepy and spooky and I have a feeling I'm not spooky enough looking, but I must audition nontheless. Also, Paul Burke as Whiplash Productions is putting in a proposal to Dublin City Countil for a show next year. I'm involved with helping to put the stuff together for it and eventually be part of the show. I'll let you know more when I'm allowed to say more. In the meantime, I set up the official Whiplash Productions Facebook page. If you're on it, join it!

Enjoy!
