Emilio has been working as a personal trainer for the past few years. He found a passion for health and fitness at the early age of 11 when he was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. From then on, Emilio had to watch what he ate to control his blood sugar level.

“I knew right away this would change my life forever but I never realized it would be such a massive positive change. Without a doubt I would not be the same person I am today if I didnt get diabetes.“

A few years later, he had another transformative experience at school when he had to do a fitness test. This triggered something in Emilio that has not been switched off even to this day.

“The competitive drive to improve and grow stronger and push my body to the point where it changed, and that process changed me as a person. As of January 1st 2022 my new life goal is to become the number 1 arm wrestler on the planet, i will become a professional arm wrestler at one point its just a matter of time.”

“Acting and arm wrestling have 1 thing in common. When you do either thing youre entertaining the people watching it. I love entertaining, making people laugh and getting them to see the things Im imagining in my head. Im lucky to have a friend group that likes to act and bounce creative ideas off of each other and so this really helped me to realize I might actually be able to act infront of a camera.”

Emilios friends encouraged him to get started with an agency. Around the same time, he came across Maxs Instagram ad looking for talent. He joined MAX agency which started the chain of events that led him to become an actor.

“The future holds a lot of different possibilities for me but the one thing I know for sure is my beautiful girlfriend. Everything I do is for our future life together and for our future family. I cant talk about myself without talking about my other half.

She also has a background in theater, she always helps me to prepare for auditions and makes me feel good about the process of trying to reach my goals. My family is so incredibly important to me and I hope I can make them happy.“

Emilio lives by the words, “Anything is possible, especially the impossible”.

Toronto Acting Agency – Toronto Talent Agency – Tip Tuesday – Body Language and Gait Tips for Actors

Gait and body language can have a big effect on how your audience understands your character. You can practice different gait styles depending on the emotion that your character is feeling.

Depending on what you are trying to convey, you may want to vary your stride length, feet placement, and add little quirks – take longer or shorter strides, dragging your feet, have a little bounce, and so on. 

Toronto Acting Agency – Toronto Talent Agency – Body Language and Gait Tips for Actors

1. Shyness

When portraying shyness, experiment with keeping your chin tucked, walk slowly, or take smaller steps. Also practice the walk of someone who is shy but trying to look confident. 

2. Confidence

A confident person walks with their head held high, shoulders back, chest out and maybe has a smile on their face. They may have a faster or slower stride depending on the scene, but they will surely have a stride that does not invilve any hesitation!

3. Happiness

Happiness can be shown by having the head slighly tilted back and having a faster stride. A joyful person might even have a bounce in their step, as if their mind is filled with  music. And of course, an uncontrollable smile. 

4. Sadness

Sadness is shown with the head hanging low, eyes on the gorund, hunched shoulders, and a drag in the stride. Also practice the walk of a sad person who is hiding what they are feeling on the inside.

The above are only ideas of how different emotions may look like. Practice different variations of these, including others like anger, confusion, fear, and surprise,  to explore your characters! 

Start paying attention to the gait of different people when you are out and about and try them out when you are practicing your acting skills. You  may even notice what affects your own walk in different situations and within varying emotions.

Toronto Modeling Agency – Model Agency Toronto – Tip Tuesday- 4 ways to stay stylish while layering for warmth

As we crave for warmer weather, it is tempting to start eyeing upcoming spring trends. But the sad reality is that we will be dealing with the cold for a little while longer. Make it fun by trying out simple ways of making your outfits more stylish while layering for warmth! 

Start with a good base layer

Base layers are winter essentials. Start with with a thermal base layer or a high tutleneck bodysuit that can be worn hidden or exposed. A thin layer will keep you warm without affecting the finished look. It will not bulk you up nor make you overheat when indoors.

Use a modern fleece jacket to stay warm

Fleece is a winter staple that have come bacl in style and we are happy it did! It is warm and cozy, and brands have really stepped it up to make it stylish recently. Wear it alone on warmer days or easily layer it under a jacket on colder days. Style hack: wear a high neck fleece completley zipped up while keeping your overcoat open at the top to reveal the cozy fleece. 

Go for a statement turtleneck

A trend with streetstyle stars have been layering bright or patterned turtlenecks. Sneak one under a button-up shirt or crew neck sweater to have a subtle pop.
