Detective and adventure films enjoy the stable attention of viewers. The creators of the picture, producers and directors, sometimes have to use non-standard methods when working. Igor Shavlak, actor and director, is known as an adventurer.
Starting conditions
The cinema industry attracts talented and energetic people. To succeed in this type of activity, you must have a connection and a reliable source of funding. In the presence of these components, a favorable combination of circumstances will not hurt. Igor Eduardovich Shavlak began his creative career as an actor. It turned out well with him. The films in which Igor was shot caused the interest of viewers and critics. After a short period of time, the young man was attracted to directing.
The future actor was born on September 12, 1962 in an ordinary Soviet family. Parents at that time lived in the famous city of Yaroslavl. My father worked at a tire factory. Mother taught literature at school. The child grew curious and mobile. In high school, he regularly attended a drama studio in the factory palace of culture. Not surprisingly, having received a certificate of maturity, Igor went to Moscow. After some hesitation, he decided to get a specialized education at the Boris Schukin Theater School. I passed the creative competition and entrance exams the first time.
Creative activity
In 1983, Shavlak received a diploma and entered the service at the Vakhtangov Academic Theater. According to the recollections of colleagues, the relationship of a certified actor and veterans of the troupe did not work out. Three years later, Igor left his workplace and, together with a fellow student, organized the Sokolniki Theater Studio. A place for classes was found in the house of culture named after Rusakov. Almost two years passed in an attempt to create a dramatic masterpiece, but the project had to be closed. The actor’s affairs in the cinema were much more successful.
The debut in the movie for Igor is considered the picture "Everything Starts with Love", which was released in 1984. The very next season, he was invited to a project called "The train is out of schedule." Having performed one of the main roles, Shavlak declared himself as a multifaceted actor. This fact is indirectly confirmed by the invitation to the adventure film "Black Arrow". After this project, Igor thought about a director's career. The first film he directed as a director was called The Ghoul's Family.
