THE AUDITION WORKSHOP 101 IS IDEAL FOR YOU IF...

 

You want to brush up on your audition skills

 

You are re-entering the industry

 

You are continually getting recalled, but not landing roles

 

You have ever left an audition and questioned yourself about what you could have done better

 

You have wondered what the Casting Director or Director really thought about your audition

 

You wish you could obtain honest feedback while auditioning

 

You ask yourself what you could be doing differently to land the role

 

 

WHAT IS THE AUDITION WORKSHOP 101?

 

The Audition Workshop 101 is a practical tool and resource, which provides a unique interactive environment for actors to work within. The workshop allows the actor to experiment, learn vital audition techniques, receive direct feedback from a Casting Director and gain insight into what it takes to achieve a strong and memorable audition AND have fun.

 

TVC scripts are used in order to learn the fundamental auditioning techniques in short scene work. We also offer The Audition Workshop - Drama, which is longer and more intensive, but the 101 workshop is a prerequisite since we want actors to understand the basics of auditioning before participating in the Drama workshop. That way actors can use the skills learned in 101 and apply them to a Dramatic audition.

 

The aim of the workshop is to HELP each actor to:

 

Understand the fundamental skills needed when auditioning, thus building confidence and competency

 

Learn how to get a call-back and land the role

 

Learn the art of non-acting, a secret for success

 

Understand the importance of taking risks

 

Understand the importance of character preparation and scene development

 

Learn what the magic bag is and what to do with it

 

Increase motivation

 

Understand who the people are behind the camera & what their expectations are

 

Learn techniques that help take away the daunting jitters
