About Me

ACTOR / Producer / Writer / Singer: Film is the only artistic medium that encompasses everything I’m most passionate about in life: Studying people and character, psychology, sociology, the camera (both sides of it), creative vision, physical exploration, self expression, losing yourself in another’s story, working hard with like minded people who are all there to share the incredible experience, building trusted relationships fast, having fun - laughing and making the absolute most of the experience of filmmaking / acting, working hard for an end result, being brave, courageous, open, free, alive, inspired and completely immersed in the craft. Living to know that your craft can always be bigger, better, but more refined. Learning, growing and developing yourself and your talent is endless - no such thing as boredom! The rewards of being selected to partake in a film that another individual has spent years or months writing is a blessing - an honor you then work hard at bringing to life in your character with your fellow actors. Giving. Completely submitting to the art form and the direction of another to bring their story and vision to life: The best fucking job in the world...ACTOR BIO: Georgii Speakman has been singing, dancing and acting on and off her whole life, and in recent years has trained with Lynette Sheldon (Stanislavski & Stella Adler Technique), Practical Aesthetics (Sydney & New York), Actors Centre Courses, Screenwise (NSW) and Flinders University Drama (SA) to harness her love for acting. In 2005 Georgii won "People's Choice Award" for theatre show "Being Frank" in Sydney's "Short & Sweet Theatre Competition", and completed a small role in feature film "Cross Life", which screened at 'Sydney Film Festival' and 'Pusan Korean International Film Festival' (2007). In 2007, Georgii completed two theatre shows "Noir" and "Journey Into Sin", which were successfully reviewed, followed by three short films "Kidney", "Be My Valentine" and "The Passenger". She has had small roles in Telemovies "Small Claims", "Mary Bryant" and "The Informant" and in late 2007 was cast in lead roles in three feature films all shooting early 2008; "Carmilla Hyde", "Offside" and "The Forest". Projects on the horizon for Georgii include a lead in the TV comedy sitcom "The Pub", which is currently in pre-production and the female lead in feature film "Roadman" Directed by Peter Leovic, opposite Travis McMahon.
