Hello,
I am a film and tv supporting artist. The last couple of years have been very tough personally and then the strikes hit me hard. I am hanging in there because of my love of films and how they are made but I have had to also look for work outside of the industry to survive.
I have certain skills that I haven't really put to use in a while and thought maybe I should update these and broaden my horizons. I have a combined arts degree and majored in art, but I also trained as a classical singer and pianist. The aim is to be positive and see if there are any other avenues open to me within the industry.
Thanking you,
Naomi.
Nice to speak with you again, Naomi Kuagben. Sorry the last couple of years have been very tough. I hope things get better for you.

Hi Naomi, It can be so tough sometimes. We all experience it in our own ways. Meanwhile, you could look
at the ‘job’ section on Stage 32 to see if there’s something you might be interested in.
Here’s to staying positive, all of us together here on Stage 32. Let’s help each other out in any way we can.
Cheers,
Jaap

Emily, I am literally surviving. I would like like to focus on upgrading my musical and artistic skills, and try for anything within the industry. I am a jack of all trades really. The problem is creativity becomes paralysed by anxiety.

Thank you, Sam and John Michael. I haven't performed for years and only recently came back to music so putting performance on the internet is something I will be working towards.
