Introduce Yourself : Actor, Voice and Writer by Sean O'Connor

Sean O'Connor

Actor, Voice and Writer

Hello from The Land of the Long White Cloud - New Zealand. British-born. I started acting aged 41 and now thirteen years on, still enjoying my journey. A couple of local guest roles on TV and about 50 independent short film roles, with several features and web series. One Hollywood audition! My resume is still growing and I’m always looking for exciting projects to collaborate on. Acting is an adventure and there’s always new things to learn, experiences to relish! I also trained as a voice actor and have several regular clients. I want to offer encouragement to all actors out there, particularly more mature performers. There are roles for those of a certain age and life experience has always been a valuable resource to draw on. I’ve contributed with blogs a few times on Stage32, so check them out. Delighted to have won my Best Actor award at Asia Webfest two years ago for Naughty Bits. It really is ‘never too late’ Thank you for taking the time to read this and please pay a visit to my profile on IMDb. https://www.imdb.com/name/nm3374567/

Hi Sean - your story is super inspirational! As a late bloomer myself, it never is too late to grab those goals! Have you blogged about that?

Congratulations on your recent wins!

Ol. Magnet

I totally agree!

Hi Shellie, I did a piece for Stage 32 about seven years ago and then earlier than that about my acting journey. I’ve had some challenges as we all do, particularly of late with a smaller industry here in New Zealand, but my passion for acting still burns!

I’m proud of all I have achieved in a relatively short space of time and hope to continue.

Sean.
