Sebastian Michael Barr

Sebastian started his career at the age of 10 with a solo commercial role as the little hitter who wouldn't quit in a PA commercial on "Optimism" that screened internationally online and at Pro Baseball Games. He worked with Timothy J. Nelson on The Assignment (2010), playing Cody, the comic relief, little brother. He played in a role opposite his real sister, Stefania Barr, and Savanna Kylie Lewis as a mystery boy in Once Upon a Summer (2009). He played the lead role as Tommy in Fifty Cents (2008). Set in the 1950's, this film tackles the age old question, "How do you get the girl?" One of his favorite roles was playing opposite Eric Roberts for a week as father and son in the movie The Wayshower directed by Jsu Garcia. This was a great experience to work with seasoned professionals with many years of acting and insight. Eric and Sebastian enjoyed a great friendship on set that came through on screen. Sebastian used that experience to take his acting to the next level in professionalism. Sebastian has since written, shot and edited several of his own films as well as continuing his career as an actor and a musician. He is violinist, vocalist, percussionist and more as part of the Indie Alternative Pop/Punk band Shrink the Giant which has recorded two albums and number two has a release in 2014. He enjoyed meeting Sarah Rubano and Joe Dunkley the SFX make up artists on Haunt. They transformed him into a bloody and necrotic ghost boy, Matthew Morello, and shared stories of their experiences on the Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit.
