Amy Walker

Amy Walker is an actress, writer, singer and dancer from Seattle, Washington.

She gained notoriety with her 21 Accents Video, in which she repeats the same sentence 21 times in as many different accents. She has commented in interviews that performing a convincing accent is as much about assuming the facial expressions and mannerisms of that culture as it is about changing one's voice or intonation. She has also said that the British accent is the easiest for her and, if she had to pick only one to think in, it would be that one.

An actress/singer/songwriter since the highchair, she has played key roles in more than 70 theatrical shows and films in both global hemispheres. As a writer, Amy has created screenplays, short stories, and many memorable characters for YouTube and both incarnations of her one-woman show, Amy Walker: Inside Out.

The ConnectedFilm Project is uniting a global community to produce the feature film, Connected, by dollar donations from 1 million people around the world. Everyone who donates will have their name in the credits of the finished film, to show that each gift is equally important. The Connected Revolution is the idea that together we can make a film about Connecting by Connecting to people around the world. We are simultaneously making the film and demonstrating the collective power of uniting many gifts, fueled by the soulfire of a global community.

Connected is a film script, written by Amy Walker and Marilee Jolin. A disconnected family struggles to love each other for who they are in a film that explores instant communication and true connection. The film follows the story of the Russell family in the midst of an 80th birthday celebration. Soon the entire family is wrapped up in arguments about the inadequacies of each other's personal lives. In the ensuing shouting and arguing, a mysterious stranger arrives who jars their focus off of themselves. The family then begins the process of reconnecting to their spouses, children and siblings. Each character is flawed but genuine in their mutual bonds of love. Connected shows the conflict and harmony that comes about when a diverse group of people express love in their own personal ways.

The SoulFire Project is the ultimate goal: an empowering community website where anyone can make a page about a project fueled by their own soulfire, and gain awareness and even funding in this way.
