Shane Jacobson is an Australian award winning actor. He began his career on the stage at the tender age of 10 in amateur theatre, performing throughout Australia and overseas. At age 18, Shane began his comedy career with regular theatre restaurant, musical theatre, stand-up and MC gigs. It wasn’t long until the corporate world caught onto his talent for characterisation and a quick quip, hiring him to play to huge corporate functions impersonating business icons and luminaries. In 1999 both Shane and one of his many characters Sergio appeared regularly on Melbourne’s Gold FM radio station. Shane’s focus eventually moved towards the camera acting in prominent Music Videos, Short Films and TV Commercials whilst also working for all the major TV networks as a regular audience warm up guy.
In 2006 Shane won the AFI Award for Best Lead Actor, the Film Critics Circle of Australia Award for Best Actor in a Lead Role and in 2007 the Film Ink Magazine Awards for Best New Comer and Australian Star of the Year Award at the Australian International Movie Convention all for his role as Kenny. Shane and his brother/director Clayton Jacobson shared the 2006 IF Awards for both Best Feature Film and Best Script and the 2006 Film Critics Circle of Australia Award for Best Original Screenplay for their film Kenny.
