Interview with:Bruce Wayne [cjclassbatman]
ACTING
 | How did you begin acting? I first started acting thousands of years ago in ancient Rome, when I descended as Saturn the Black. |
| At what stage in your career did you realise that acting could be something you do professionally? When I left my "family" home in French countryside to become a stage actor in Paris. |
| Please list an Internet address where one can see something about you. http://twitter.com/djginsberg |
| Please list the most important or defining jobs of your career. I played the taskmaster who killed a Hebrew slave, in Mendel and Moses, and then I played Joshua for the remainder of the show, quite a few years back in Clearwater. The taskmaster was an acrobatic, whip-cracking soul singer, and Joshua sang as well. |
| Please list any famous performances that have helped you in reference to your evolution in acting. I draw great inspiration from my own performances of Romeo, Hamlet, and Othello. |
| Please list three actors and three actresses that you like. Three Actors: Brandon Lee, Harrison Ford, Morgan Freeman
Three Actresses: Betty Buckley, Alyssa Milano, Madonna |
| What type of psychological, physical, and emotional preparation do you do before a performance? Deep breathing, listening, sitting meditation, standing meditation. |
| What is your criteria in determining which projects you select? I only choose the roles that are right for me. |
| What type of communication do you normally establish with directors? I give them the respect they deserve, and follow their suggestions -- to a degree. |
| What is the archetypal character in which you tend to be typecast? The Great Actor Lestat de Lioncourt. |
| Has there been a role that has been especially difficult for you? Superman. |
| Do you see yourself working in this field in twenty years? But of course. |
| What do you do to kill time during waiting periods at casting calls? Twiddle my thumbs for just a bit. |
| Are you continuing to educate yourself through acting classes, seminars, or other courses? Do you combine this with your normal job? Nah. I just review lines and body language business in my head. |
| Is there any fetish role you haven't interpreted yet, but that you have in your head to do one day? The Shadow. |
| Which director would you like to read this interview? What type of role would you like for him/her to offer you? Director: Tim Burton, Role/Movie: Batman the trippy cartoon. |
| Have you ever thought of giving up on the profession? If yes, when and why? Yes. When I got too frustrated with all the pressures in my life, that I quit acting class, but eventually just slowly continued in my own way, with the notion of never going out to a movie set, nor playhouse, but only getting involved in projects if they would let me animate/film my parts from a home studio. |
| One personal reason why to keep doing this work Vendetta. |
| How do you feel when people recognise you on the street? I smile, nod and/or wave, and continue walking unless they have a question to ask. |
| What advice would you give to someone just starting out in acting? "Frustration is a pressure cooker." |
MUSIC
| What do you do? What is your musical specialty? I'm a master musician. |
| Do you work alone or in a group? If in a group, who are the others you work with? Mostly alone, but also long distance collab projects. You know, sending tracks around and different people add different tracks to the mix. |
| Is there a web address where one can listen, see, or read some of your work? Yes. DJGinsberg.com is my main site, but still needs some work. I do have a number of other sites with selections of demo's by me. Try /DJGDIRECTORY @myspace for a listing of all the MySpace's I own.
