It’s been a while since I’ve updated my acting demo reel.  I’ve had the good fortune of working on several projects since the last version over a year ago.   A good demo reel is very important and very subjective.

On the one hand, you want it current with the “latest and greatest” work you’ve done, on the other, there’s often another great project already in the works or in post and you don’t want to have to update it again in a month.  On top of that, you don’t want to make it too long by just adding everything you have, but you want to show a good range of character and acting ability.  All of that adds up to the potential for paralysis by analysis (and my rather infrequent updates)

Well, with the airing of The Cape episode 3  - with my face opening the show, it was definitely time.  Some old favorites had to go to make room for the newer clips, but I hope it’s a good representation of me and my on-camera abilities.  

Enjoy and of course, feel free to comment.

 

My Bio

I had to put together a bio for an exciting project that’s coming together (stay tuned!).  I wasn’t quite sure the tone we were going for, so this is what I came up with:

Boris Kievsky:  Boris began playing video games in 1982 and began writing them in 1983.  He attempted to walk away from the geek life 10 years later to pursue a career in theatre as an actor and director, but the damned machines kept dragging him back.  A self-confessed “recovering geek,” Boris now straddles the two worlds of technology and entertainment on a daily basis.  In the last five years, Boris has focused his creative energies on acting, writing and directing for film.  His first short as writer/director made the festival rounds last year.  Currently, he has a webisodic pilot and a feature docu/mocumentary in post-production with other projects in development.  He still likes to put on his Indian accent when he fields tech-support calls from friends and family around the country.  Turn-ons include proper netiquette and long walks on the beaches of Pandora.  www.imdb.me/boris or www.theboris.com
