This week I had the privilege of shooting a young, up and coming actor name Morgan Sorne (pronounced ser-nah) who from the moment he walked in the door I knew I was in the presence of greatness.
First, he is a dead ringer for John Taylor of Duran Duran circa 1985. Can I get a “what what” from all my fellow Duranies? Just give him a blond streak and I would put of poster of him on my bedroom wall – if I were still 14. Anyway…
Second, as an actor, he knows how to work his face. He can give a serious look without looking angry. To borrow a term from America’s Next Top Model, he really knows how to Smize (smile with the eyes). He told me he started practicing in the mirror after seeing photos of himself that he wasn’t pleased with. Well, I think he has mastered posing.
Third, he is as genuine and authentic as they come.
A big thank you to Kirsten Winquist (also an up and comer) for the referral.
