About Me!
My name is Skylar Ellis and welcome to my website! I created this as a way for people to see my love for acting! I’m from the Bay Area and I go to school in Southern California. I spend a lot of my time watching movies or TV picking up on different tactics and figuring out what kind of stories I want to tell through acting. My favorite genres have to be horror, slashers, and superhero/action films. I adore the X-men and specifically Jean Grey, Kitty Pryde, and Storm. I also love the Scream franchise, I’ve been able to go to Stu Macher’s original house, how insane is that! I am a huge fan of video games as well, I love Until Dawn and The Quarry! One of the biggest goals I have in my career is to act in a motion capture slasher video game, like Until dawn.
I have been an actor for pretty much my entire life! I fell in love with acting in the second grade doing my elementary school production of Makin’ Magic. Since then I have been able to play a large variety of roles ad truly explore what it means to be an actor. I’ve been lucky enough to go to the Cannes Film Festival and premiere a short film I was apart of at the American Pavilion once. The next year, another short film I was apart of got in as well, but I was unable to go. I majored in theater at my performing arts high school and I am currently working on getting my B.A. in theater at the University of Redlands. A lot of my training has been focused on the modern and contemporary side of acting so I am excited to announce that in the fall of 2024, I was lucky enough to study Shakespeare and classical acting at the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Arts! I could not be more proud of the art I’ve been able to create and I hope you are as excited as I am to see where my journey takes me!
