Previous work of Martin!

Ni hao, again. Hope you like the blog. This week I want to tell you about how I became an actor and what work I have done here in Sweden.

I wasn´t really in to theatre or acting before I turned 14. But one day a big movieproduction came to my school, they were looking for young boys to a movie. I had no intentions to go to the audition, but a teacher convinced me to go there anyway. Two casting sessions later I had landed my first role in a movie. A small one, but I loved it from day one! It is still available on dvd:

After that It took almost two years until my next part. This was also a film in Sweden where I was supposed to play a bully, a real badboy. The director, Reza Parsa, was amazing to work with and I know that it was during that production I decided to become an actor. By this time I was 16-years old and started to do small parts in tv-series & films. From the age of 14 until 20 I did nine different projects. And at the age of 20 I got in to a 4-year long theatre-school.

These years were really tough, but I was lucky to keep working with film & TV as much as I could outside school. One of the best projects was the movie “Arn”, the biggest and most expensive movie ever made in Sweden, the budget was 225 million yuan! The film was shot in Sweden, Morocco and Scotland.  The cast was mainly Swedish actors but also from England, Germany and France. I had the great honor to meet Mr Stellan Skarsgård known from a lots of movies (“Pirates of the Carribean”, “Mamma Mia” and “Angels and Deamons”. He played my stepfather and it was a joy to work with such a great actor. The movie takes place during 13th century in sweden and follows the adventures of a boy named ARN.

你们好吗？希望你们能喜欢这个博客。 这周我想告诉你一些故事关于我是怎么成为一名演员的，并且在瑞典都完成了哪些作品。

在我14岁之前几乎没有真正参与过戏剧或影视的演出。有一天，一个很大在电影摄制组来到我的学校，他们想找一个男孩出演这部电影。起初我无意去试镜，但一位老师劝我一定要去试一下。于是两批选角之后，我得到了我的第一部电影角色。一个很小的角色，但从第一天开拍起，我就爱上了它！至今还能找到这部电影的碟。http://cdon.se/film/hela_h%C3%A4rligheten_(nyrelease)-558892

在那之后的将近两年后，我出演了我的下一个角色，也是一部瑞典电影，在这里我演了一个恶棍，一个真正的坏男孩。和导演Reza Parsa的合作特别愉快，也是在拍摄这部电影期间我决定了要成为一名演员。这年我16岁，同时开始了一些电影、电视剧的拍摄。从14岁到20岁，总共拍摄了9个不同的作品。20岁的时候，我进入了大学，正式开始了专业的训练和学习。

这几年的大学学习虽然挺苦的，但我很幸运能在校外拍摄尽可能多的影视作品。最好的一部作品是瑞典有史以来最强制作班底、最昂贵的电影《圣殿骑士2》，这部电影的预算达到了225000000元！它是在瑞典、摩洛哥和苏格兰拍摄的。演出人员大多是瑞典人，同时也有来自英格兰、德国和法国的演员。我很荣幸能见到著名电影演员斯特兰·斯卡斯加德(他的作品包括：《加勒比海盗》 《妈妈咪呀》 《天使与魔鬼》)。在影片中，他扮演我的继父，特别高兴能和这样一位优秀的演员合作。这是关于13世纪发生在瑞典的故事，讲述并跟随着一个名叫ARN男孩冒险的历程。上Youtube上看看视频吧。http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4X0DTj-a6wE  或者在：http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XNjc3MjU1ODA=.html
