I have both headshots and a resume available. All of the acting work I've done has been on-stage. I started at the age of seven, and have been involved in over twenty-five productions since then.
My name is Roger, and I'm completely willing and prepared to rock your world.... As long as it doesn't take more then, like, 20 minutes because... schedules and all... you understand, right? Alright, so let's get those over with. I'm an aspiring actor/writer and my goal is to make it big in the b-horror scene. Some of you may argue that that isn't something one usually works toward, but you need to understand where I'm coming from. I love horror... LOVE it. Classic, gritty, grainy little pictures that can still pack a punch even after decades have passed, those are the kinds of films that are close to my heart. And those are the kinds of films I aim to be part of...
And I will be.
But until then I'll keep working my ass off to get there and make a name for myself in the meanwhile. Wish me luck!
And now, in order to come off as a professional, a bio.
A Cleveland native, William Roger Conners (just Roger to his closest of friends) has been acting on stage since the tender age of seven. Since then he has appeared in over fifty Cleveland-based theater productions, including many well-known shows such as Oklahoma!, Little Shop of Horrors, Urinetown, and Jesus Christ Superstar. It wasn't until 2006 that he began pursuing a career in film, and in the fall of that year he was cast as one of the leads in his first major motion picture, 529 Films Hellementary: An Education in Death. Since then, Rog has steadily moved from film to film, landing roles in multiple independent flicks such as Voodoo Rising by Fright Teck Pictures and Cheap Sunglasses by Skidmark Productions. With a wide array of projects lined up for him in the near future, it appears as though Roger has found his little nitch in the great big world of cinema.
See, I told you it sounded professional.

I DO use MySpace as a source for networking so if you would like more information on my acting background/resume, please let me know. I'm always looking for new projects.
I'm pretty social so why not talk to me?
So rumor has it I'm a "movie star". I dunno... apparently that's what the people from Moviestargreetings.com because they had me do a few holiday greetings for them! Check out this cute behind the scenes clip.

Check out the brand new behind the scenes rough-cut reel for Voodoo Rising! The footage is rough and not even CLOSE to being finished, but... it'll give you all a sneak peak of what's to come! I play the gay bitch... Woo for type-casting!
And look here! Behind the scenes bloopers galore! While rehearsing for a shoot, Jim was able to catch one of our MANY line-flubs. Now we can REALLY look like idiots!!! :D
P.S.- Note for myself. Never wear hot-pink... ever again...
Who I'd like to meet: Anybody who has a sick, dark, twisted, SARCASTIC sense of humor and the ability to hold an interesting conversation.
Also...
Fellow actors and directors. I am always looking for new projects to keep me occupied!
