Testimonies from past collaborators

Writer/Director
When Michael auditioned for the lead role in my film, "Yuh Filthy Animal", he won me over right away with his commitment to the scene and authenticity. I built the entire cast around his character and he was phenomenal in the chemistry reads. He will do the work, listen to his scene partner/s, and ask questions if he needs direction. In addition, he is a pleasure to be around and understands the level of professionalism needed on set when it's crunch time. I highly recommend Michael for your next project.

As EP and screenwriter for the film Seeds, it was a pleasure to work with Michael. His acting is compelling. He fully immersed himself in the part.
One example stands out. He was back for one of the most demanding scenes of the film after a short hiatus. When I saw him I thought ah it’s Michael let’s catch up, but instead he was in his zone preparing and I did not want to bother him. He delivered the part perfectly and then broke character deftly and warmly updated me on his career path.
A lovely, bright, committed actor. Something every production wants and deserves.

Michael-Eoin Stanney was cast as the lead in our short film and was exceptional. He understood the part and brought a new level to the character. He was collaborative, easy to approach, and always open to suggestions and new developments as they came. On set, he was incredibly good-natured. I could always count on him to be on his game and turn in a stellar performance through all the chaos that comes with filmmaking. If you’re looking for a motivated and talented actor, I highly recommend Michael.

Making films can be a grueling process. But within that time, the crew and talent become a family of sorts. On the film Seeds (2023), I met an actor (Michael), and he instantly became a part of our Gen1 family. As a first AD it’s my job to push the crew. Sometimes people take it personally. Not Michael. He always understood the overall goal at hand and remained a professional. He helped out so much on set that I had to remind him he was a key talent and not a key grip! Very wise for his age. He has a strong command of story, which is paramount for actors. Overall a solid guy with much potential. Can’t wait to see him spread his wings further.

Michael was a delight to work with. Always professional and on time. He was a pleasure to be around on set. I hope to work with him again in the future!
