About Me

Hi, my name is Björn Neumann. I am a aspiaring actor/model. Here you can find a introduction of myself, a small overview of my experince with the business and the reason why I want to work as a actot/model.

My connection to film came from my family at a very young age. My father showed me the great Star Wars films relatively early on. I was overwhelmed by the world that was unfolding before my eyes.

During my childhood, I spent most of my time reenacting scenes and excerpts from a wide variety of films with friends. Star Wars, Pirates of the Caribbean, Batman, Transformers and probably others I don’t remember.

That didn’t change when I was at school. At an early age, I took part in a theater production at my elementary school and really enjoyed slipping into the role of someone else. I visited the cinema more and more often either privately or on trips. I watched the spectacle on the big screen in front of me as if captivated and from then on I regularly found myself completely absorbed by the film.

The first time I actually became completely enthusiastic about the idea of ​​starring in a film myself was the first time I saw the trilogy of The Lord of the Rings films. The world seemed so tangible, so special, so unique. For the first time and from then on again and again, I imagined myself having a role in these stories and developed a growing desire to immerse myself in these worlds. At this time I had my first real experiences with the theater. I played one of the main roles in a theater performance that my mother took me to. I noticed how exciting it was to slip into a role and how easy it was for me to memorize the text in a short time. From then on, I took every opportunity at school to partake in short film projects and performances. I wrote scripts, screenplays, helped with camera work and often starred in several film projects in order to gain at least a little experience in a wide variety of areas.

After finishing school, I immediately began to delve into the art of acting. I got literature and took several courses. This also included a theater course in which I took on a leading role in the play. Nowadays, being an actor is no longer just about working as an actor itself. You have to combine many talents, be able to market yourself and attract the masses and give them something. That’s why during this time I had my first experiences in front of the lens through my mother, who worked as a photographer. So I practiced the art of presentation.

I think what attracted me to cinema and the performing arts in the end and from the beginning was the fascination for the freedom that comes with this profession. One thing that many people lose as they get older is the childishness, the desire to play, but this art allows me to play throughout my life and to immerse myself in not just one, but the most diverse lives of different worlds. Every now and then everyone wishes to escape from this world, from this life, to simply leave everyday worries behind and experience something different, something fantastic. The cinema is a place where you go to escape all the stress just for a moment. Over time, I realized that this is exactly what I want to do. I want to act in works, in worlds, in stories and in the lives of different characters, in those that give people something, that make them forget what is currently bothering them. I want to act in stories that last, that fascinate people, that make them think, that maybe just make them forget and those, which stay in their minds.
