Every actor has a fit, a character mold, that they build their careers on and expand from, at least starting out. The bad guy, the girl next door, the cop, the angel. It is an approach to finding roles and networking that can create a successful and lucritive brand. There is a delicate balance between working a brand and being typecast. Actor Andy Gates joins us to discuss the evolution of his brand as the guy next door, the every man and the roles landed with this approach.

 

Welcome to another episode of The Future of Horror, an interview podcast featuring new, upcoming talent in horror, The show is a sibling podcast to Horror News Radio, the official HorrorNews.Net podcast. With each episode, the show’s host, Doc Rotten, spotlights a director, an actor, a screenwriter, an effects artists, a film maker conquering hurdles and barriers to get their films made, to follow their passion, to make horror films.

 

Actor Andy Gates joins Doc to discuss his career, his brand and his approach to auditioning and networking. It all ties together. He shares how he gain confidence over time, growing more and more comfortable with his brand and how it helps him approach auditions and networking with that brand  in mind. He touches on when working against the mold works to his advantage as well. He also discusses the films he has worked on and the lead role of Donald Conlee in the upcoming horror feature, Dead Afterlife.
