The Enchanting World Of Actress Bernice Breckon

From New Zealand To Hollywood, Bernice Breckon

Can you imagine standing near James Cameron on the set of his record-breaking film Avatar? That could have been a life changer for some people because it’s just not that often that you get a chance to witness a genius in action, doing something that they love and that millions of other people also love to look at. Bernice Breckon had that opportunity when she was on the set of Avatar, and it did influence her future �" she decided to become an actress. Standing in the middle of all that creativity also made Bernice see the necessity of training and studying acting to amass all the tools she would need to be a highly competent and competitive professional thespian, which is what she is today.

 

She always loved the idea of acting while she was growing up in New Zealand, but it wasn’t until she became older that she took acting lessons. She worked in commercials and stage plays and attended the best acting schools and master classes in New Zealand and then in Sydney, Australia, before coming to Los Angeles to study at the Michelle Danner acting Studio.

 

Since then, she has built up quite a resumé and has acted in short films, theatre, commercials and feature-length motion pictures. Besides being in front of an audience and on film, Bernice also works very well behind the scenes. She is a talented director, production manager and producer. She can remember her lines, hit her mark, make a budget and direct the other actors, all while looking great and remaining perfectly cool while under pressure.

 

Bernice, born Maori, is a presence to contend with just like another famous Maori actor who is considered by many to be one of the best actors in the world: Cliff Curtis. He played the very scary Los Angeles gang member who was going to kill Ethan Hawke’s character in the movie Training Day. Bernice has also received excellent reviews for her performances in the movies, Find Your Voice, Fearless Games and Avatar.

 

She produced several noteworthy short films through her company iFlow Productions, Fashion Statement, Deathly Acquisitions and For The Love of Joseph, which she also directed. Bernice currently has some interesting projects in development as producer and also in the roles of director and actress, and we look forward to seeing them.
