Music Video - Oscar Martinez/Coolway

Being back in London has been a real change of pace. After an unbelievable 10 months in Barcelona, I am back in my hometown and looking forward to tackling the New Year. As good as Barcelona was, there are so many pros of being back home, not least of course seeing my family and friends. More than that though, London feels like a city of opportunity right now. I have signed up to a new agency, more to follow on that soon, and am auditioning, and getting cast, for various acting projects, which makes me especially happy. Looking ahead to 2014, acting is certainly the area where I am looking to make the most strides. 

All that being said, last week I was flown back to Spain, this time Madrid, to shoot a music video for Oscar Martinez a Spanish radio DJ, in a  production sponsored by Coolway. Some of you may remember that in June I shoot the Coolway F/W campaign, and I am grateful to them again for choosing me for this project. This is the first time (2013 really was a year of firsts) that I have been flown from one country to another specifically for a job, and I have to say I enjoyed the thrill of it all. Sad to say I didn't get a chance to see much of Madrid, but then again I was anticipating I would. I was the male lead for the shoot, of a cast of around 16 young people. We took over a little nightclub called Bora-Bora, and created the illusion of a busy party. The concept of the video revolved around "my girlfriend" and myself and two nights that we spent at the nightclub. One night we were together, and the other we were separated and I came across her with another guy. In the end, all was forgiven and the enjoyment of the night prevailed. I had so much fun shooting this project, and feel that we created a really enjoyable, happy atmosphere which I certainly think Oscar was looking for in terms of his track, and that I hope is clear for all to see in the final cut. 

That is the dark blue sky of a 6am start :)


I love watching the camera guys do there thing. They have such technical knowledge and can change the smallest things in order to create the biggest changes and make the end product that much better

 One of the guys dropping some moves...very cool (Though he may have almost kicked someone in the head!)


It was fun being the lead, I felt very loved and wanted!
