On Tuesday 2nd December 2025, I sat down with stand-up comedian and actor Danielle Scott at Tiger Heart Studios for a conversation that was equal parts honest, funny and quietly inspiring. Danielle shared how she first found her way into stand-up — not through a grand plan, but through saying yes before she felt fully ready. That courage to step on stage, test material and embrace discomfort became the foundation for everything that she is enjoying in her current era. From there, the conversation naturally moved into her work as an actor, including her success in Pooh Blood and Honey. What stood out wasn’t just the credit itself, but the persistence behind it: the auditions, the rejections and the introduction into a horror acting genre that coexists with an exciting fan base. It was a powerful reminder that: Your starting point doesn’t define your ceiling. Skills compound in unexpected ways. Backing yourself often comes before external validation. Danielle’s journey is proof that momentum is built one brave decision at a time — and that trusting your voice can open doors you never planned for. So, here’s the question: What’s one creative risk you’ve been putting off that might just change the direction of your career if you finally said yes.

🎙️ Episode 26 is live!
This one’s about ambition, access, and aligning talent with legacy brands. In this episode of “Sanj Surati Talks”, I sat down with Raf McDonnell, Founder & MD of Talent and Brands, to dive deep into the business of cultural matchmaking — connecting global brands with world-class talent.  📍 Recorded at the brilliant Atomic Studios in London, Raf shared how he went from behind-the-scenes hustler to a key player brokering headline deals between household names and household faces. What struck me most was his mindset: "Understand the value of who you represent — and then match that value with the right story."
It’s not just about access — it’s about alignment.  This conversation isn’t just for brand strategists or talent agents — it’s for anyone who wants to understand the anatomy of modern influence.

Try to ask how you can help so that you work with people you want to work with. You always need some form of showreel so keep cutting this regularly. Being a cinematography is very similar to being an actor as your tone and direction can typecast you so try to branch out into different forms of expression. Try to be busy with your creativity in between jobs. Use visuals to communicate what your vision will be. Stay positive in between each job. Make and find relationships that you think bring opportunities.  https://www.sanjsurati.co https://www.twitter.com/sanjsurati https://www.instagram.com/artistryinsentiment https://www.facebook.com/therealsanj   Launched over the Covid 19 lockdown, The Sanj Surati Talks Podcast is a channel for Sanj’s discussions with people he knows and a few discussions with himself.
