Merry Christmas 💥🎄

We all know it’s a crowded industry and standing out in auditions and selftapes isn’t about doing more.

It’s about making clearer, braver, more truthful choices. ✅

On 15th January, The Craft is hosting an Improvisation Workshop led by (Dreaming Whilst Black, The Kitchen) for actors who want their performances to land differently. 🚀

If you’re ready to take your craft to the next level, this session focuses on the skills that help you:

• Make specific choices that feel alive and intentional 💥
• Stay present instead of overthinking 💭
• Adapt quickly when direction or sides change 🔄
• Take notes confidently without losing truth 🔥

Improvisation helps you cut through the noise by trusting your instincts and responding honestly in the moment.

🎤 Includes a live Q&A with Demmy on his processes and more.

10 years of Your Cinema:

I come from a music background so when I started Your Cinema I really didn’t know about the industry (or many people in it) and to be fair it wasn’t even the focus.

The focus was showing OUR stories on the screen, I just knew that people NEED to see our stories, like why aren’t we seeing them?!

Film London dropped us some funding (big ups EVERYTIME) and we did our first set of screenings with as the host. Bro thank you for seeing the vision and coming onboard 👍🏾

Over time I realised we actually need content in between screenings and there were so many people smashing it in roles on Casualty, Holby City, Hollyoaks etc. so I thought we NEED to interview them 🙏🏾

These ideas step by step have morphed Your Cinema into a content platform, an events space, a production company and MOST importantly a space where we’re seen authentically 🙏🏾💥❤️

We’ve only begun to scratch the surface but I’m TRULY grateful for everyone who’s ever blessed us with their time, attention, views, ticket sales and encouragement, it means a lot.

These past ten years has felt like four and as we prepare for on Saturday, I just wanted to take some time out to say thank you to everyone who’s supported.

December we celebrate! 🥳 🍾
