Noshir Dalal
BA ‘03
Actor, Motion Capture Artist
Storytelling has never been more accessible across so many mediums, and modern technology has allowed Noshir to be at the cutting edge: Performance Capture. Chances are, if you play videogames, you’ve come across Noshir’s work. Currently, his most notable credits include: Charles Smith in Rockstar Games’ Red Dead Redemption 2; numerous roles in Spider-Man PS4; and Lt. Zayed Khalil in Call of Duty, Black Ops 3. Living in Los Angeles, he also works in TV (Good Trouble, SWAT, Hawaii Five-O), Film (Clemency, Aloha) and Voiceover (Fallout 4, Scooby-Doo).
Noshir’s first introduction to acting was at the University of Rochester, where the guidance and direction of Nigel Maister and guest director Michael Barakiva gave him the courage to move to NYC, and spend the next 10 years on-stage at such theaters as La MaMa ETC, the Classical Theatre of Harlem, and Lincoln Center. This training, along with his physical and combat training, would lay the foundation for the work he does today.
