Aside from his work in film, Tirado is working on a comedy web series on YouTube entitled “Not by Choice”, in which he plays goofy cable guy ‘Gustavo,’ one of three cable men who end up out of work and try their hands at various other careers and would love to be interviewed by Actors Reporter
Born in Spain, Tirado grew up with a love for acting and the entertainment industry. He formed his first theatre company when he was 12 years old, performing scenes from films for local audiences. Throughout all of his schooling he was active in the arts, working to hone his craft and studying the movie business. Tirado made the decision to move to Los Angeles to pursue his dream of being an actor. He shares, “my parents have been my biggest supporters. They taught me to work hard, work smart, be positive, and think big. When I first moved to LA, all of these elements came into play.” Upon arrival, Tirado enrolled in acting programs to further study his craft. For four years he studied with The Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute, and at The Acting Studio at Edgemar with Michelle Danner.
Tirado hit his stride in the business in 2011. From 2011-12 he booked eight feature films, some of which have made the rounds in the festival circuit. In 2012 he was seen in the independent feature HELLO HERMAN directed by Michelle Danner and appearing with Norman Reedus. The film was a big success at the 2012 Hollywood Film Festival. Additional credits for Tirado include independent features THE JET MOVIE, 8 REELS OF SEWAGE, ROCKBARNES: THE EMPEROR IN YOU, THURSDAY’S SPEAKER, and the short SOMETHING OUT OF NOTHING.
