Acter (2020)

Ivan’s short film Acter: Sit-Com is a dark comedy take on the experience of actors that offers a rare peek behind the curtains of an outwardly glamorous industry.

Its world premiere was on Saturday, 25th April 2020, on Youtube. Watch it now and do not forget to drop a like here:

A new production of Ivan’s own company Comedy Ink Productions, this short differs from prior projects in its realistic style that gives chamber drama vibes and in its intimate focus on Ivan’s performance as he puts the audience through conflicting emotions.


Plot

An actor is faced with a challenge when the character outline for a self-tape raises concern about potential effects for his reputation. We see him test accents and facial expressions while going through the script, and make a desperate attempt to clear his doubts by a phone call to his agent.

After a successful Youtube premiere on 25th April 2020 with a greatly engaged audience and a live chat, Ivan has decided to create more and it is even possible that he will give us a series.
