Happy star trek day everyone! Exterminate! Nanoo Nanoo!

For those of us not at the #oscars (well not until next year anyway), remember to keep yourself limber and prepared for a week of selftapes and auditions.

Why not start with a few stretches!?

#actor #Oscars2025

My most rewarding acting moment.

Preparing for Caryl Churchill's "A Number". My first steps onto stage after so long focusing on screen acting.

I just wish professional #theatre wasn't such a closed shop and I could just find a way in.

When you wake up with hopes of a productive day and your inner #adhd monologue has gone full Joker on you!

Now alls I want to do is go back in the #voiceover studio, record more randomness and get me a VO agent!

#seekingrepresentation

It's always a good day when this one gets the SFX makeup out.

I even had to do a lesson in contact lens application!

Another 2 years+ before an apprenticeship can even be considered! Think of the portfolio by then!

Day 15 of 2025, my first selftape request is in, and it needs some line learning!

Now to stare at this until all the words jump out at me.

Happy days!

And lo, I succumb to the first cold virus of the year. I had a good run!

In the interest of making lemonade I might drag my carcass back into the studio to play with some voices with my new found huskiness.

Last time Bane got the treatment. What next?

Watch out #voiceover agents, I'll be knocking on doors (via email once) in the new year, on the hunt for representation.

For now here's a 59 second sample of my VO commercial #showreel. More to come in 2025

A couple of years ago we had a very special guest collecting our emu eggs! Any day now they'll start laying again!

When a last minute #selftape request means setting your alarm early, it's extra important to stretch to avoid pulling anything!

Looking for some #tattoo ideas. So far I just have this one little tattoo, but debating a full sleeve, or do the other shoulder instead.

In either instance, I'm really struggling for any ideas of what to have!

Wednesday is always a funny one. This week I have successfully changed two 10" rim ATV tyres on "the Ute" whilst taking Bessie to the parent and toddler group halfway through.

Next week I've got a fun acting day at Harper Adams college in the role of an angry farmer. Shouldn't be too difficult!

All this talk of #Thanksgiving has Seth (10) asking why we have to wait another month for #turkey.

So I decided it's important to do a bit of quality control, plus I've a few too many turkeys this year, so we're having a 20lb Tuesday night roast dinner! And a few days of turkey butties to follow!

Feel like I'm playing catch-up with the move here, so here's another one.

When you can't even get peace and quiet in the cellar to complete a #selftape, you have to resort to drastic measures!

First post might as well be some shameless self promotion!

Here's a minute of my #actor Showreel. The rest is on my Website www.martintomlinson.co.uk

Please, like, share and ideally cast me!
