Actor/Filmmaker. Virginia, United States.
#FlashbackFriday #FBF Do you remember our Community Spotlight with Philip Anthony Wrencher?
Philip is an actor pursuing a Bachelor of Arts degree in Cinema Television with a minor in Theater at Regent University.
Biggest Challenge:
“’Glory Man’ by Dennis J. Hassell. It’s the story of Clarence Jordan and Koinonia Farm. At first, I thought memorizing lines will be the hardest part. Nope, it’s your blocking and learning cues, especially have a six- foot theatre rake, which we move around the entire play. Theatre is as much a collaborative art as film.”
Solution for Challenge:
“Build strong relationships with your fellow cast members and all of the crew. Everyone has an importance in making the play a success, and you have to have the ability to put trust into others to fulfill their duties, which will give you the best opportunity to have a great performance which, in turn, will allow them to, also.”
Favorite Technique:
“Having an uplifting attitude. This helps others to keep focused on the prize, and having a great journey to the finished product.”
Projects:
“I will be location manager for a semi-biographical film that some of my classmates will be shooting. Then, probably looking for, and writing, a few short scripts for a Directing class I have. Always looking for ways to improve my acting resume.”
Background:
“I have been a producer, a DP, 2nd AD, cam op, 2nd AC, boom operator, gaffer, key/dolly grip, grip, and PA. Acting-wise, I have been an extra on the set of the John Adams HBO mini-series which was a blessing. Have done few a commercials, industrials, and student films. I have only been pursuing acting for two years and filmmaking for a year. I believe I have gotten off to a great start.”
