Musings of The Classic Sherlock Holmes Actor
Project Overview
I make a little audio web series entitled "Musings of The Classic Sherlock Holmes Actor" which goes on both the website No Place Like Holmes (www.nplh.co.uk) and YouTube. In them I narrate the written musings of classic Sherlock Holmes actors including Jeremy Brett, Basil Rathbone, and Douglas Wilmer. We cover such ground as what they thought of their films/shows, Sherlock Holmes, acting, and much much more. All readings are sourced from written interviews or autobiographical entries. I am going to be enhancing some of the new entries coming up by adding some other actors to read quotes of other actors mentioned in passage. They are typically no more than a line or two for the most part.
Actors will have their links/sites plugged in the video and on the NPLH website as well as getting a glowing recommendation on CCC from myself.
What you submit in your audition would potentially be the final piece used if done well enough - so please give it your all! Please include what you want to be credited as if chosen with your entry.
Thank you for taking the time!
