🇬🇧 Helen Day is a British actress, dancer, circus performer, puppeteer, and voiceover & performance capture artist who made it across the pond from England 💂‍♀️ to Los Angeles 🌴. 

In this episode, she shares the intimate details of working with James Cameron, transitioning from dance to film, the story of how she landed representation in LA and her consciousness around making her big move to the US. 🇺🇸

Helen's wild combination of unique skills opened the door to collaborations with icons like Tim Burton 👻, Henson Studios 🐸, James Cameron's 🦋 Avatar-inspired Cirque du Soleil 🎪 show, Samuel L. Jackson, and Luminous Productions (video games like Forspoken). 🎮

In this conversation, you'll learn how Helen used her non-traditional acting background to attract the right attention in the US and abroad.
