“You feel like you’re really acting and really doing something when you do the film because in television you’re grinding your way through it. The moment you finish one script you’re on to another one and it just goes on and on and on. (In the film) you have more time to work with it – not at it – and you spend more time talking to the director about the role.”
In 1993, she went to the UK for a production of Aladdin. Elmaloglou appeared in Pacific Drive in 1996, as a victim of incest, who dices with death when she turns to drugs. She appeared in an episode of Life Support as a “publicity whore”. The actress later posed naked in a Gothic-themed set of photographs for the Australian celebrity nude art magazine Black+White.
