at SBS now and I feel I much more confident in the
area, but like anything there is always room for
improvement. Still a lot to explore with
#SBSPopAsia and we have a pretty epic team so I’m
happy to continue to explore the potentials with
them for now! More travelling with them too

particular style and manner for him! Also sitting
there and running the lines with my mates always
helped to trial a few character traits! In general I
prepare for auditions by hiring an acting coach and
getting as many opinions on the scene as I can!
