This Easter actor played it forward

This actor found fame in a classic Easter film – and spent the rest of his life playing it forward.

It was an epic film on a large scale that conquered the audience. Since then it has become a staple for Easter. But there is a star in the film that took over the message to help her fellow human beings. This Easter actor has played it forward and continues to have an impact on the entertainment industry. Eugene Mazzola, who played the son of Pharaoh, continues his passion and has so far has more than 52 acting loans as well as a television series and even more credits behind the camera. And with every step he offered a hand to raise others.

Mazzola's big break came in the Oscar winner. Cecil B. Demilles The Ten Commandments (1956) is a monumental epic that Moses' journey recorded from the Egyptian prince to the liberator of Hebrews and culminated in the reception of the ten commandments and the Exodus. The film was known for its size, lavish sets and unforgettable performances and was a most successful film from 1956 and one of the highest regards ever when they are adapted to inflation. The stars included Charleston Heston, Anne Baxter and Yul Brunner. Its continuous popularity is fueled by annual television programs during the Passahfest and Easter, which means that the status is determined as a cultural and religious touchstone for generations.

Mazzola's father, who was geared into a family in the film industry, began as an actor in the 1920s and moved behind the camera in the 1930s. While his father was in 20th century Fox during the depression and the Second World War, his brothers and sister worked as a background or day player in the studios. At that time, the system was that the studios brought the children of the employees to work. For good or bad, the studios were family run and populated.

Lola Moore, a children's agent and a friend of the family, send me with interviews. At one and a half years, Mazzola was brought to work on Asphalt Jungle (1949). As a baby there was not much to do in front of the camera, but cried in a cot. It was continued to wait until the Sonne Nellie (1951) shines. Despite his young age, he was able to memorize dialogue, make markings and emote. The dream of a director of a three and a half year old child. It was in Cry of the Jagd (1952) where the Casting directors realized that the camera really liked the young actor. And like today, he takes instructions, a needed and useful ability when he is out of the camera from the camera. Star Level came when he was occupied in the ten commandments (1955).

After the success of the film, he made films and television. At that time he registered with a “superagent” and changed his professional name in Eugene Martin. Although he had big credits as a child, according to the agent, it was less ethnic. In retrospect, this was problematic for many reasons.

After serving in Vietnam in 1970, he decided to expand the past but to stay in the industry. During his studies, he ended as a production accountant in a film produced by Peter Fonda and Line by his brother Anthony.

This led to his role as a production assistant in television advertising. It didn't take long for him to start crawling up the leaders – deputy direction, production management and ultimately produced. In 1976 he produced my first feature film. He also met his wife Zita Mazzola and continued to expand into the industry and mentor, help and lead hundreds of others in the craft.

While working on a film near Seattle, he fell in love with the area. They moved to the area in 1981 to build a studio site for the northwest. They started Seattle Cine rent to support the growing NW film industry, which became Cine Companies. It has been the largest company for grip and lighting companies on the west coast for nine years. This company was bought by Pacific grip and lighting and remains the largest G&E company in the northwest.

They currently have a production company, Mazzola Filmworks. The aim is to further promote and support the film industry and the people in the northwest.

Mazzola said: “I think every job we accept makes a difference, not only to our progress, but also to the people with whom they work with. This applies in particular to the film business. I learned from my family how important it is to respect the contribution of every person in the crew and the line -up, even the background actors.”

Yes, the film industry is generally considered a very challenging and competitive industry in order to be successful. Today the film has to find a broader way because streaming is created another entertainment option. It requires a considerable amount of hard work, determination and often happiness. Although it is not impossible to be successful, the way to become a successful filmmaker or actor is often long and demanding. Having the Mazzalos as a mentor was an advantage for hundreds of actors, directors and behind the artists from the artists.
