Alexander Christopher
- Elenco
Alexander Christopher primarily grew up in the Washington D.C, Maryland, and Virginia metropolitan tri-city area of the country. He learned quite a bit from growing up there, and is a very adaptable and diverse young man because of it. It is one of the most diverse parts of the country and one of his high schools, located in the state of Virginia, called Annandale High School, was ranked number 2 most diverse high school in the country in that moment of time, which actually had the president's First Lady at the time, Mrs Michelle Obama come and make a public speech at the high school one day. Alexander was mostly raised by a single mother and his grandmother, because his father passed away when he was 10 years old. This had a great emotional effect on him growing up, as what is natural to happen. However. he did gain a younger half-sister from his father, after he remarried, and she was born shortly before he passed away. She is actually Mexican descent, so Alexander Christopher gained a huge Mexican family through his father, which Alexander is very proud of and can speak intermediate Spanish. Shortly after high school, Alexander Christopher was studying in the field of business, until he was encouraged by his mother with a creative background, to pursue and use his artistic gifts to the fullest potential. He then switched his major to a Theatre Studies certificate because it was the closest degree he could find in the acting field. He then went on an audition at John Casablanca's, which led to opportunities, such as IMTA, booking independent films, music videos, modeling, and gaining a scholarship at the New York Film Academy in Los Angeles, California, where he resides. Alexander Christopher graduated the New York Film Academy with a 4.0 GPA, taking classes such as Voice and Speech, Movement, Great Performances, Filmcraft, Technique and Scene Study, Improvisation, Acting for Film, Editing, Business of Acting/Audition Technique, Meisner Technique, and even a Dance drop-in class. By self submitting on Casting websites alone, while alongside studying in school, he booked a background actor role on a feature film premiering on Lifetime. He gained his first real movie credit on IMDBPro which he was so proud of when he got the email for it in the morning. After the director saw him perform, she then upgraded his role to a scene with a principal actor. After his job was wrapped, a couple of months went by and the same director requested the production company to call him for another Lifetime movie, but this time, he was booked as a co-star with one line in Film dialogue, as the character of "Barista. With self submitting, Alexander Christopher also had the opportunity to work as a background actor in Jimmie Allen's music video on the world renown Warner Brothers lot, and also booked a background role in a fashion commercial for the brand Michael Kors, that had the world renown Ms. Bella Hadid starring in the production. He was also booked as a promotional model and docent for the lavish designer brand, Louis Vuitton for Louis' 200th birthday exhibit working a couple of months on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills. After networking at the Louis exhibit, he made a fellow friend who's also an actor, who ended up referring him to his talent manager and agency he works with. Alexander then started working alongside the management/agency company called Apollo Talent, in order to get all of his materials up to par, so he can be better submitted, hoping to book larger productions on larger networks. Alexander Christopher's other passion is music, and is a great dancer and can also play the drum-set very well. He can dance styles such as, club, freestyle, hip hop, bachata, salsa, reggaeton, and cumbia. One night, he was at his friends house who is a professional recording artist, and singer, and then asked to try on the recording headphones for a minute or so, and pressed record, and then pressed play for the beat of the song. Alexander felt the music, sang his heart out, and freestyled some lyrics to the beat he was recording with. After that experience, he quickly got serious about finding a way to record music on his own at his house and found an app to do it on his phone. He has countless tracks written and recorded and puts some of them on the streaming service Soundcloud, his rapper and music artist name is "Lex." Lex is a tortured soul who slightly resembles Alexander Christopher's real father in real life who passed away from a drug overdose. A lot of his songs are about struggles with drugs, domestic violence, mental illness, women, and life, the same issues Alexander's real dad had when he was alive. Lex then found a music producer in Hollywood, and worked with him to produce his first professional mix and mastered, single. So there is Alexander Christopher, the actor and model, which is his primary brand in entertainment, and then there is Lex, on the music side, his secondary brand in entertainment, the rapper/recording artist, and dancer who specializes in recording in the genres of hiphop/rap and r+b. Alexander Christopher/Lex is proud of his accomplishments so far, in his pursuit of his dream, and career in entertainment, and also, excited for the future as well!
