Introduce Yourself : Actor, writer, director by Geoffrey Gould

I'm a lifelong (scandal free!) character actor; I grew up on the stage (Studio Playhouse [Montclair New Jersey], and Livingston Community Theater groups), as well as starring in a couple of productions on a short lived group don't professional dinner theater at the Hoboken Clam Broth House.

I began doing movie background work and at the end of the 20th century moved to Los Angeles.

I'm a member of the Hollywood based film collective We Make Movies. I began getting back into writing. I like short form films; I'd written several recent ones a few years earlier, and had them workshopped.

A year or two later, I submitted to their second script competition one of my dark comedy scripts, "Bucky," which was not only one of the four winners, it received the most votes.

With a bare-bones $1500 budget, we filmed "Bucky" in a single night (with me as director, as well as the voice of its title role). Once completed I began submitting "Bucky" to film festivals, publicly premiering not only at the Hollywood Chinese Theatres, but it won at that first festival, and since has won 46 awards (out of 296 festivals).

It's scheduled for public viewing 02 February on my realbadger YouTube channel.

I also began submitting to festivals a handful of my unproduced short film scripts, each and all of which have won numerous awards.

I'd love to be able to fund and have them all filmed.

I'm also fascinated by the paranormal; apart from paranormal investigating when possible, I cohost a weekly online radio show The Paranormal View at para-x dot com Saturdays 5-7pm Pacific time, 8-10 eastern: I post the shows on The Paranormal View YouTube channel (the current one; we had one which only has a handful of shows: it's still there, we just use the new one I created).
