I’ve been working in Film/Television since I’ve been 16.
And although my childhood dreams of becoming a famous movie star haven’t really panned out, I’m still happy and overjoyed every time I book ‘blurry background’ on a set.
So late last year, when my agent called to book me as an ‘ice skater’ in a Dodge Ram commercial, I gleefully accepted.
Set in a remote location of Canadian Rockies, the backdrop was a perfectly beautiful way to spend the day.
The concept of the commercial:
A small town looking to celebrate a snow day by spending it on the ice….
Enter a Dodge Ram to clear the pond!
After the hero Dad removes the snow, a day of skating ensues.
And although only a slice of my shoulder makes the final cut, being on set with such a great cast and crew of people was a perfect way to enjoy a minus 20 day in the Alberta landscape!
Here’s the final edit of the commercial for your enjoyment!

Maybe my shoulder will make it big one day!
