ABOUT ME
Yasemin Gravitas is a dual citizen British-German actor of mixed heritage, with roots going back all the way to Turkey. With a journalistic background, she started working as an interpreter globally until she discovered acting in the UK. As a multilingual actor, Yasemin’s native language skills (English, German & Turkish) have frequently been used on set, both to her advantage as well that of the various producers and directors she has worked with.
Yasemin played Officer Pasha on an international US drama FBI International (Series 2- Episode 4) working with the director Avi Youabian which has aired on CBS mid October 2022. Even during the pandemic in 2020-2021, Yasemin has not stopped working. She was cast in a number of TV commercials such as working with the director Michael J. Ferns (MJF) on the latest Co-op commercial as well as featured roles in several British films i.e The Bezonians, The Phantom Warrior and The Abomination, all of which are scheduled to be released in the cinemas in 2022 and 2023.
Yasemin received her first TV credit in 2015, doing so without any professional training on the British Comedy Television Series House of Fools. This subsequently led to Yasemin working on popular ITV soap operas such as Emmerdale, as a voice over artist, and an on-screen appearance as Mrs. Tapa in Coronation Street. By this point she began attending screen acting classes, before committing to a two year part-time drama course at the Independent Centre for Actor Training (ICAT) in turn leading to theatre performances in London and Manchester. Throughout her training, she was led by her mentor and artistic director Simon Trinder. (www.simontrinderactor.com)
Yasemin is acting daily and her other work as an interpreter allows her to use her voice professionally in different settings. One day, she could be making public announcements during a Champions League football game and another day she could be sat in court next to alleged murder or terror suspects. All of these experiences give her emotional access that she uses for her work as an actor.
