- to be an actor or actress admired by TCO's mods, or nominated by an affiliate.
- to have little to no existing online presence, ie. no prior website
Have you ever noticed that the faces we know the best on TV are often the ones we know the least about? How often have you said to yourself ‘I know that guy from somewhere’ without being able to place a name? Have you ever been driven to distraction unsuccessfully attempting to find any information at all about these wonderful actors on the internet, simply because they are not well-known names?
Well, it drove us crazy; so we chose to do something about it.
Our names are Rosie Nicchitta and Julie Griffin and we are the creators of ‘The Camera Obscura', a site dedicated to elevating the online presence of actors we believe are underrated.
We met online, through a mutual fondness of cult TV series, Stargate: Atlantis and were surprised to see the lack of web space dedicated to some of the show's cast. Indignant and suddenly inspired, we decided to take matters into our own hands: starting with Boyan Vukelic and Joseph May.
Since then, the website has expanded to include two wonderful actors who appeared alongside Joe in HBO's historical drama Band of Brothers: Tim Matthews and Mark Huberman. Both Tim and Mark made great impressions on us in the series, and we felt they deserved some web space of their own.
Here at TCO you will find mini biographies, along with details of their careers, photo galleries and links to other sites. At the time of writing, the site also contains an exclusive Q & A with Joseph May and will hopefully soon include a similar Q & A with Boyan Vukelic.
If you have any articles, information or suggestions, please feel free to drop us a line.
