I've been asked if I'm interested in auditioning for a series about gaming. It's for Platform Play, and I'm very excited. No idea if I'll get anywhere but it's great just to be asked if I'm interested in auditioning. If you feel the need you can see my initial web audition below.
Platform Play is part of Platform Expos, which is working to create a hub of games development, transmedia and content creation in the Humber region. It's really exciting what they're doing and I really hope it takes off. If you are in the Humber region, do be aware of the upcoming Platform 2013 expo in November - I've got my ticket booked for the Friday (and the day off work), I'm not quite sure whether I'll be in there doing a load of filming or whether I'll just be enjoying everything going on, but either way it's going to be fun!
Couple of Internet things to tell you about:
Firstly, just a reflektor. This is an interactive film that uses your webcam and smartphone/tablet to interact (it can use your mouse instead of your phone if it isn't to hand) and is quite cool. It follows a young woman who travels between her world and our own. I won't spoil it by saying what happens but do check it out at https://www.justareflektor.com
The other thing is that I am rapidly becoming addicted to Card Hunter. This is an online collectable card adventure game that you play either as a single player fighting your way through dungeons, or in multi player head-to-head. You get loot, which gives you better cards. Very good fun and free to play (although you do get more loot if you pay to become a member of the card hunter club), the only downside is that because it is so popular at peak times you may have to wait to get onto the server (which is always a sign of a good game!)

Okay, so I've got to kill some kobolds right? Lets do this.
A Mighty Bludgeon is deployed. That's gonna hurt.
