We got our second challenege at school & it was to find an actor, acting school, acting agency, & an acting film producer along with a photographer.
Right when we got this assignment I knew I had a contact.
We all decided what we were going to do & how to get it done.
I automatically decided to get contacted to my old acting coach & family friend
Jasmin Geljo.
He is a professional actor in Serbia & Canada.
He is well known in Serbia for a lot of his movies & shows.
Here he is known for leads in Train 48 & Blue Murder.
He has done a lot of work & has taught me a lot about acting as well.
Once I told my parents, they set up a date & took me to meet up with him.
We all sat down at a Cafe in Downtown Toronto called California.
We talked about acting & what I want to do in the future.
Just by sitting there & talking to him after so many years, & just for those 2 hours,
I learned so much.
It was such an organic moment.
He told me that here in Canada it is very hard to get acting gigs & jobs.
He decided that here in Canada he didn't have much to do, & that he is going to go back to Serbia.
He told me that in Europe, acting isn't just about the busniess,
it is about the craft itself.
He told me the importance & he gave me a few contacts as well.
He is such an inspiration to me & I hope that he will always be someone I can go to.
