Bree Wasylenko

Realized I don’t have my demo reel anywhere on my feed, so here it is! Excited for another year of great projects to come 🎬 ✨ #breewasylenko #canadianmade #canadiantalent #torontoactor #blondbeauty #wellnesswarriors #misskate

Today is the day! Painkiller is officially out on Netflix, which I had the absolute pleasure of choreographing 💃🏼 This show was a crazy ride. Working up close and personal with insanely talented people, while being thrown curveballs left, right and centre, and witnessing everyone adjust, shift and change on the spot was such a masterclass. Watching @pberg44 work and getting to collaborate with him was a trip - that man is a wild genius! And getting to work one on one with Matthew Broderick was a dream - there are so many lessons I learned from watching him that I’m putting in my back pocket and keeping forever! Thank you @peterharveyfilm for bringing me on to this project. I am forever grateful to you! To my dancers, thank you for showing up with an open mind and ready to just go with the flow, regardless of how crazy that flow might have seemed 😎 I hope you all enjoy this show. The themes are heavy, but it’s a story that needs to be told, and I think the team behind Painkiller has done it in a pretty incredible way 🙏🏼 #breewasylenko #canadianmade #canadiantalent #torontoactor #blondbeauty #wellnesswarriors #misskate #torontochoreographer #painkillernetflix #peterberg #matthewbroderick #torontofilm

Time for another self-tape montage! Here’s a selection of some of the tapes I did over this past year. Shout out to @dnybackact for always having my back, pushing me outside of my comfort zone, and reminding me to get out of my own way and let the genius of my body (and inner knowing) take over! Lots of growth this year (which means growing pains as well), and lots of really cool projects I got to tape for thanks to my bad ass agents at @connektcreative 😎 I always love putting these together to get a sense of perspective - when you’re in a dry spell in terms of booking, it can feel like there’s something “wrong” with your work…but looking back on these tapes is a fantastic reminder that I’m consistently putting great stuff out there - and having fun in the process (so important!) - so it’s just a matter of time before the next one hits. So here’s to many more auditions, lots more play, and hopefully some more bookings in the near future 😏 #breewasylenko #canadianmade #canadiantalent #torontoactor #blondbeauty #wellnesswarriors #misskate #canadianactor

The song says it all ✨ I love photoshoots period. But photoshoots that include a dog? 1000x better. Obvi. Especially when that dog is @wild.tundra , who serves looks left, right and centre 😏 So much fun playing with @danicaolivapets on this one. She’s truly the best!! #breewasylenko #danicaolivaphotography #potcakepuppy

The many moods of the day. So happy to be home after an intense two weeks away for work, also exhausted and in need of serious recovery time, also thinking “okay, so what’s next?!?!”, also ready to live my best spring/summer life frolicking in nature, also sick of planes and hotels but simultaneously planning my next trip. Welcome the life of a Gemini!! ✨ #breewasylenko #misskate #canadianactor

Had the chance to play with @danicaolivapets + @danicaolivaphotovideo a few weeks ago and we created some magic! While this shoot was centred around @wild.tundra , we got some solo shots as well and I’m so glad 🙌🏻 I love how creative Danica is. She’s got a fantastic eye and is amazing at directing the session. I just ran with whatever she suggested, and we got so much gold out of it! Obvi I’m going to be sharing more photos with Tundra and I because they are just so badass (and cute, too 🥹) so stay tuned for those! In the meantime, definitely check out Danica’s work. Not only is she a talented photographer and videographer, she’s also an absolutely delightful human being ✨ Studio: @juntostudio .

There’s nothing like this bond 🐶 I want to call this…. The start of FEM PORTRAITS ✨ by @danicaolivaphotovideo @danicaolivapets Being in this chapter of like with my own pup is enough of a reason to celebrate with photos to always remember this time together. Here. Right now. As we are. A huge shoutout to the amazing talents @breewas and @wild.tundra for being on board with all my ideas and moodboards for this one. So much more to come!

Just a little appreciation post for @dnybackact , who is the incredible acting coach that all four of us work with! And the benefit of living with him is that I get to see these gorgeous humans whenever they come over for tapes - like @jordanclark today at 7am 😜 Truly though, Doug is incredibly good at what he does. He is a master of story, extraordinarily adept at distilling complex thoughts and emotions down to something that feels true and authentic to each person he works with, and provides space to explore the messy humanness that lies within all of us (that we often try to avoid at all costs - guilty!) He’s helped actors book major roles on shows like The Pitt, The Way Home, Wayward, The Studio, Painkiller, My Life With The Walter Boys, BET and many, MANY more - plus a myriad of feature films. On top of working one-on-one with clients, he also runs a YouTube channel filled with practical acting advice, has a weekly newsletter (it’s my favorite email to open and read every Friday morning!), hosts The DNA Podcast (if you love acting, you have to check it ou!) and posts a ton of great educational content on his social media. He ALSO created The Foundations Program, which is an online course geared towards beginner actors that teaches them everything they need to know about how to craft a bookable self-tape - an invaluable 8 hours of videos you can work through at your own pace that will speed run your entry into film and TV that he wanted to make accessible to everyone - which is why it’s only $75 🤯 DM him if you want the link! And on top of all of that, he’s a freaking amazing actor, writer, partner, cook and dog dad to @wild.tundra . Big fan over here, and I know you will be too! #breewasylenko #thenextstep #misskate #thednapodcast #dnybackact

Celebrating @thenextstep last night at the Toronto stop of the TNS Legacy Tour!! It was so great to see and reconnect with so many of the cast members, friends, family, crew and of course our amazing fans. I’ve seen this show on two continents now…should I make it three and join them in Australia?!? 😏 @thenextsteptouring . The Next Step will forever hold a special place in my heart, just like I know it does in yours. Thank you for following along on our journey all these years!! ♥️ #breewasylenko #thenextstep #misskate

Dogs just make everything better. Period. The end 🥰 #breewasylenko #potcakepuppypalace #potcakesofinstagram

I love BTS on set - it’s always so fascinating to see how differently things read on camera vs. in person. This clip is from a thriller I shot called “The Killer Is Calling”…where I remembered how bad my hay fever is after spending 12 hours in a small enclosed barn filled with hay 🤪 Long days (with night shoots), but tons of fun! I love working on fast-paced sets, there’s no time to second guess, you just GO. Anyone else with me?! #breewasylenko #misskate #torontoactor #lifetimemovies
