Adam Savage = Poke-thespian
Ok everyone, duly noted. I haven't updated my blog since the second week of January (*sigh) But, it's all because I've been mega stretched across a number of brilliant productions!
Life at Ginx is going strong with my recent ascension to 'the voice' of 'Games, Games, Games' - a countdown of great titles for the kids, which, for those who have watched the show will vouch, has arguably the catchiest them tune ever heard!..yes, it is the deafeningly high-pitched, squeaky one. 'Planet of the Apps' is approaching it's landmark 50th episode too (!!) which I'm incredibly pleased about, particularly as the show has added Xbox Live and Playstation Network reviews to it's roster, adding tons of clout to the mix.
In early March, I was delighted to invited to the Pokemon National Championships @ Birmingham's NEC Arena - interviewed champions, did a little battling myself and even met the man (yellow furball) of the hour. Now, I've interviewed some great celebs, but this guy...league of his own. Didn't say much mind you?! Here's a snapshot of us hugging because we're best friends, and follow this link for my chat to some of the competitors... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S5UmrClV48&list=UUKw1Zh2KWkmgOC4FhIH1QOw&index=7&feature=plcp
But as mentioned in my last blog back in 1988...I've also been cast as the lead in short film 'The Road to Bethlehem' which we began shooting early February and will be finished my the end of March. Directed by Markus Sorsa, it should be heading to Sundance amongst other festivals which I cannot wait to see on the big screen. My reinstatement into my theatrical past doesn't end there though, as I can also be seen in director Katie Pow's 'Bleached' set for Cannes this summer! Playing a chap experiencing a horribly awful blind date has never been portrayed so convincingly.
Anyways, keep in touch via twitter @imadamsavage as always, and I'll have plenty more soon including my attendance at the UK launch of Kinect Star Wars...I had a chance to interview plenty of celebs including C-3PO himself, Anthony Daniels, and R2-D2! Some say my next blog might be as big a cliffhanger as Darth uncovering he's Luke's father in Empire Strikes Back. I'm gonna disagree and say it's bigger, but what of it?! Byyyye!
