Speaker 1 (00:02):
Hello, everybody, welcome to a brand new episode of the podcast. Today.
I am joined by a good friend of mine, Jack Minton,
who's going to be talking all things acting and how
and how we got within the field of acting and
a bit of mental health as well. So Jack, welcome
to the show. How are you great?
Speaker 2 (00:22):
Thank you Color. It's great to be here. And I'm
not just saying it for a sec of a podcast.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
Yeah, definitely. And I've known you from school as well,
and the fact that you've might progressed into the acting
field is amazing, but just out of curiosity? Really, what
made you want to go into acting.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
To prove missus Hall's well? I always, i think wanted
to really perform in front of other people in a
way because I really love people reactions. But what made
me get into this, this film that everybody's well, everybody
(01:12):
that knows me talking about what happened was was that
my sister tagged me into a Facebook post and a
casting director was looking for a autistic man to play
a lead part in a Netflix film, and so I
did the audition. I didn't get the part, but then
two months later they asked me to audition again for
(01:36):
a different role. That they needed to cast, and then
what happened was was that I did the audition a
week later and then three days later they said you
got the part and we're starting next Friday. So that's
how I got into the film.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Wow, that is absolutely amazing. And we'll talk more a
bit about the film as we go on into theodcast.
But yeah, just just have interest, like you wanted to go.
You wanted to go there because you love performing in
front of people. And I know I've seen it first
sound that you are a brilliant performer, especially when when
(02:14):
we did the GCSE drum performances.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
Just remember them too, well, oh.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
Gosh, yeah, I honestly, yeah, I remember. The process is
setting up, remembering your lines and all that. It's it's
quite a grueling process. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
Well yeah, it was, especially I think in school. But
now obviously for me, I also get paid for it,
so then it becomes a lot more tolerable. I suppose
to deal with it.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
Yeah, for sure. And when So, what is one thing
that stood up what you first off when you properly
went into acting and you auditioned for that role.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
Well, I remember when I first went into the audition,
what stood out was there was a mixture of pure
anxiety and excitement.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
I mean.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Went in the building and there was a person before me.
And what I think stood out compared to doing more,
compared to going into drama and if you you know
regular jobs, quote unquote, is that it was just even
(03:43):
waiting in the audition room, it was an experience within itself,
and it stood out because there's nothing like knowing that
you could be filling out a dream, and that not
also a dream that you have, but the audition process itself.
Knowing that you could be picked for something where millions
(04:07):
of people could see you worldwide and you can become
something of yourself. And even though technically you are working
for other people, it's a complete collaboration with other actors
and casting directors because all they're trying to do is
trying to fit a piece of the puzzle and whether
(04:28):
you fit into that puzzle or not. And that's what
really stood out to me at the time.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
Yeah, Yeah, that's that's great as well that you mentioned
the collaboration between and not only adaptors themselves, but also
the casting directors, the people behind the cameras and as
especially in the industry, there's a lot that people don't see.
And I suppose for you when you went into that
(04:58):
and you and you felt that like anxiety and that
anxiety and also that excitement, which which can happen. It's
it's a natural thing that happens in all walks of life.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
Really, yeah, absolutely, especially when you're.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
In Yeah, yeah, you're yeah, you're doing really well, probably
the most probably that you're probably the most successful out
of all of us in our year.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
Oh, I don't think it's so, I just I'm just lucky,
I suppose. But yeah, I think what I've made up
in a sort of success in work, I think you've
more than made up in your contribution to men's mental health.
(05:49):
So and I think that's just as valuable.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
Oh, thank you. I do appreciate I do. I do
trum my best to contribute in some way, because you know,
mental health is a thing that we should absolutely all
talk about. And when I guess for you as well,
when you went into that, when you went into the
active field, did did did that stress you a bit?
(06:17):
Did that have an impact on your overall wellbeing? No?
Speaker 2 (06:28):
I don't believe that it acting or even the process
of auditioning had an impact on my personal wellbeing, I
don't think. And the reason why that is is because.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
I have.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
This is one of the only things where I can
think like this. But when it comes to acting, I
just sort of shut down and in a way that
even if they say, for example, I don't get a part,
I don't take it personal because I don't. You know,
(07:11):
there's a reason why I didn't get that part of
that makes sense, there's a reason why I didn't do
as good as I should have been. I always try
to think that way because I know that there are
other acting jobs that I can fulfill. And yeah, it
just hasn't It's had a very good impact on my
(07:32):
personal wellbeing, I would say, not negative in any way,
shape or form.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
Yeah, that's that's really that's really really good to hear.
And and the fact as well that acting for you
has actually galvanized your well being and how you and
how you see and perceive things is nothing. There's just
nothing short of exceptional. Really. So you've done, you've been,
You've done amazingly well in what you're doing what you
(08:03):
could seeue to do. So we will go into the film,
which I'm very very excited to talk about with you.
So for the listeners out there, what is the film
that you are going to star in?
Speaker 2 (08:18):
Well, before I answer that question, I'm not going to
star in it because I don't have a living group.
But the film that I am in is called I
Used to Be Famous, and the film will premiere. It
will make its debut on the sixteenth of September this month,
(08:40):
and if you're really that desperate to receive the film,
I believe it is also airing it from the ninth
of September to the fifteenth in select cinemas, but I'm
pretty sure all of those are in London. The reason
and what the film is about. It's about a man
(09:03):
who used to be in a very famous boy band
and now he can't find a work as a musician.
He can't gain that phone me so desperately wants and
one day he does some busking in a market in Peckham,
which is in South London, and there's this autistic teenager
and he ends up playing percussion on the market bench
(09:28):
as the man is busking with his electronic keyboard synthesizer,
and he then the man who's called Vince and the
teenager called Stevie. Vince tries to make a two man
band with the teenager and they struggle through trials and
(09:51):
tribulations together as a band and his Stevie's call. Stevie's
mother has problems with letting him go and obviously going
to be okay, you know, being on his own with
his condition. And yeah, it's fantastic film. And if that
(10:17):
didn't do it justice my description, then I suggest that
you watched the trade because that is really the best
way to experience the story before you watch the full film.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
Yeah, definitely. So he's definitely sold the film quite well there,
and you described and describe, and you described it brilliantly.
I think there's a lot more like films and documentaries
representing autism coming out now as even a Netflix series.
I think it's called Attorney Who something like that, and
(10:52):
it's I don't know if you've heard of it. It's
basically a lawyer who's on the lectum navigating her way
through the field of law. I haven't watched it yet,
but I'll love to. It's quite interesting because I know
often the people stereotypal to see people with rain man,
(11:19):
which is so original.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
Yeah, yeah, absolutely absolutely, which is why the film that
I'm in provided very good care for the special needs actors,
the neurodiverse actors, which is also why I shared something
(11:43):
called a creative enabling enabler with my with the co
star who played the main role that I tried to audition.
And if you don't know what a creative enabler is,
it's basically literally a teaching assystem but for acting.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
So okay, no, I've never, no, never heard of that,
and that's that's a new one. I don't think those people, No,
I don't think many people who haven't been acting before
have done. Yeah. Probably, yeah, definitely. And so when you
(12:26):
were on the set of the film, when you're on
a set of set of the film that you're in,
what what was what was that? What was that experience
like of just being amongst you know, all these amazing people. Oh?
It was?
Speaker 2 (12:47):
How can I describe it?
Speaker 1 (12:49):
It was.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
One of the most breathtaking moments in my life. It
was by far the best job could have asked for,
and every reason, from one from the cast, the crew,
the director, the cameraman, that just everybody was absolutely fantastic.
(13:12):
I enjoyed private transport to and from the studio. I
had my own trainer at one point and yeah, exactly,
and there was always people there to help when you
struggled with the lines, or there was a there was
(13:34):
a you know good I had Eddie Sternberg, who is
the director of I Used to be Famous. A wonderful
director because you know, it's exactly, at least from my experience,
he knows exactly how to convey what he wants to
very very quickly and in a way that you can
(13:54):
very easily understand. And he's an absolutely brilliant man. And
he made work on the set of what he used
to be famous. He made it ten times easier than
it would have been.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
Yeah, that is brilliant. Honestly, it's it's good that it's
good that when you have people that are on I
guess the same wavelength as you are, and they make
the experience as comfortable for you as possible, which can
be absolutely beneficial.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
Oh yeah, yeah, absolutely. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
So my next ques, my next question to you is
probably might have been asked us before. I don't know,
but who's the most famous person you've worked with?
Speaker 2 (14:43):
Actually haven't been asked that question because I've blurred it
out before they even asked it.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
But.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
Probably out of I think ed Scrine who was in
he played a character in the third season of Game
of Thrones out or eleanor Mattsura, who used to be
a supporting series of regular I can't remember what what
(15:17):
characters she played, but she was in The Walking Dead.
Those are the two most and also one of the
most charismatic people and the most kind people that I've
met so far while doing my work as an actor.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
Wow, that is that is quite something really to have
been able to have been able to work with speakle
in the fact that you described them as really nice
people as well, because that that is that is nothing
nothing sure of them. Because the fact that you've worked
(16:02):
people who've been in like big like films and series
that everyone that everyone watches all over the world. I mean,
I am probably the minority that's never watched Game of Thrones,
but uh, but wow, you've worked. The fact you work
with them is absolutely mental.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
Is it okay if I'm in that minority if I
haven't watched Game Friends?
Speaker 1 (16:28):
Absolutely absolutely? But no, yeah, you've you've done. You've done
absolutely amazing with what you're doing, so you might have
you might have to keep tight lipped on this, but
is there any other projects that you are working on
(16:48):
anytime soon or in future. Mm hmm.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
This noun planned who it's no numb planned obviously I do.
There are going to be more in the future, obviously,
just trying to build up my sort of credits through
doing student films and short films, trying to get big
(17:14):
headshots taken and all that. That's where I am thinking
of going and increasing my abilities by taking more classes.
That's where I'm going to go in the future.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
Absolutely brilliant. And what advice would you give to anyone
that's perhaps a bit shy but wants to pursue a
future career in whether that's like whether that's a stage
performance or just acting in general, feel.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
The fear and the trepidation. Do it anyway, because in reality,
you've really only got one chance to do what you
want to do in your life, and there shouldn't be
(18:22):
any reason or any sort of thing that should be
standing in your path. And I think also this is
probably the best time to get into show business because
there's a lot of people from different diverse backgrounds and
physical abilities that are actually being successful, that are being
(18:43):
on TV. So I would say that, yeah, you certainly
have a chance nowadays more than ever, so don't let
that stop you.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
Yeah, definitely listen to that and to the view and
to the view as you are wanting to go into
something and perhaps I'm sure, like like Jack said, just
just do it. Just do it, and and you know
if you if there is a setback, then it's all
new to overcome that, because we all go through setbacks
(19:19):
in life and it's it's how we bounce back from that.
It's about getting up again and going again and ensuring
that and ensuring that we don't let rejections hold us back.
Absolutely so, Jack, any final words before before we end
(19:41):
this episode.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
Final words, I would say that one, thank you very
much for listening to us today. It's been brilliant for
the viewers. And also like to say to anyone that
if you don't make it in your twenties, you can
(20:09):
make it in your thirties. If you can't make it
in your thirties, you can make it in your forties.
And what that means is basically there's always a time
I think in one's life where you can you know,
you can sort of make it in what you want
to do. There's no time limit on what you can
(20:36):
do as a person. You can, in most cases achieve
what you want to achieve if you allow yourself to
do so.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
Absolutely spot on. Couldn't agree more. And I just want
to say to you as thank you all for listening
to this episode. Absolutely brilliant as usual. Once again, Jack,
thank you for taking the time today to come onto
the podcast.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
Pleasure is all mine
Speaker 1 (21:02):

Yeah, that is brilliant. Honestly, it's it's good that it's
good that when you have people that are on I
guess the same wavelength as you are, and they make
the experience as comfortable for you as possible, which can
be absolutely beneficial.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
Oh yeah, yeah, absolutely. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
So my next ques, my next question to you is
probably might have been asked us before. I don't know,
but who's the most famous person you've worked with?
Speaker 2 (14:43):
Actually haven't been asked that question because I've blurred it
out before they even asked it.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
But.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
Probably out of I think ed Scrine who was in
he played a character in the third season of Game
of Thrones out or eleanor Mattsura, who used to be
a supporting series of regular I can't remember what what
(15:17):
characters she played, but she was in The Walking Dead.
Those are the two most and also one of the
most charismatic people and the most kind people that I've
met so far while doing my work as an actor.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
Wow, that is that is quite something really to have
been able to have been able to work with speakle
in the fact that you described them as really nice
people as well, because that that is that is nothing
nothing sure of them. Because the fact that you've worked
(16:02):
people who've been in like big like films and series
that everyone that everyone watches all over the world. I mean,
I am probably the minority that's never watched Game of Thrones,
but uh, but wow, you've worked. The fact you work
with them is absolutely mental.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
Is it okay if I'm in that minority if I
haven't watched Game Friends?
Speaker 1 (16:28):
Absolutely absolutely? But no, yeah, you've you've done. You've done
absolutely amazing with what you're doing, so you might have
you might have to keep tight lipped on this, but
is there any other projects that you are working on
(16:48):
anytime soon or in future. Mm hmm.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
This noun planned who it's no numb planned obviously I do.
There are going to be more in the future, obviously,
just trying to build up my sort of credits through
doing student films and short films, trying to get big
(17:14):
headshots taken and all that. That's where I am thinking
of going and increasing my abilities by taking more classes.
That's where I'm going to go in the future.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
Absolutely brilliant. And what advice would you give to anyone
that's perhaps a bit shy but wants to pursue a
future career in whether that's like whether that's a stage
performance or just acting in general, feel.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
The fear and the trepidation. Do it anyway, because in reality,
you've really only got one chance to do what you
want to do in your life, and there shouldn't be
(18:22):
any reason or any sort of thing that should be
standing in your path. And I think also this is
probably the best time to get into show business because
there's a lot of people from different diverse backgrounds and
physical abilities that are actually being successful, that are being
(18:43):
on TV. So I would say that, yeah, you certainly
have a chance nowadays more than ever, so don't let
that stop you.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
Yeah, definitely listen to that and to the view and
to the view as you are wanting to go into
something and perhaps I'm sure, like like Jack said, just
just do it. Just do it, and and you know
if you if there is a setback, then it's all
new to overcome that, because we all go through setbacks
(19:19):
in life and it's it's how we bounce back from that.
It's about getting up again and going again and ensuring
that and ensuring that we don't let rejections hold us back.
Absolutely so, Jack, any final words before before we end
(19:41):
this episode.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
Final words, I would say that one, thank you very
much for listening to us today. It's been brilliant for
the viewers. And also like to say to anyone that
if you don't make it in your twenties, you can
(20:09):
make it in your thirties. If you can't make it
in your thirties, you can make it in your forties.
And what that means is basically there's always a time
I think in one's life where you can you know,
you can sort of make it in what you want
to do. There's no time limit on what you can
(20:36):
do as a person. You can, in most cases achieve
what you want to achieve if you allow yourself to
do so.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
Absolutely spot on. Couldn't agree more. And I just want
to say to you as thank you all for listening
to this episode. Absolutely brilliant as usual. Once again, Jack,
thank you for taking the time today to come onto
the podcast.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
Pleasure is all mine
Speaker 1 (21:02):
Okay, all right, good bye everybody.
