Are you sending in auditions and not booking the role?
Do you ever feel like the choices you make in your audition are the ones you "should" make instead of the ones you "want" to make?
Do you ever struggle with having more “fun” in the audition process?
The focus of this class will be developing a process and a confidence in how to make choices that help your self tapes stand out. We will explore foundational audition elements including blocking, eyelines, text analysis and then we’ll layer in more personalized choices. In addition you will develop your individualized process for both audition and performance that utilizes deep emotion, authenticity, sensory awareness & recall, emotional triggers, and improv.
Concepts explored in this workshop include:
Personalizing your audition - using the uniqueness of the actor to craft original and compelling characters
Creating bold, effective and efficient character choices in a short time frame and with the limited information provided to record self tapes
Trusting your work - reconnecting to the internal power and joy of creating while breaking free from the pursuit of external approval
Over the past 28 years Daniel has amassed a resume of over 150 credits in film and tv and over 20 theatre credits. Selected credits include lead roles in the films Toxic Skies, Secrets of a Marine’s Wife and the Disney Feature Film The BFG (directed by Steven Spielberg) and recent guest star roles on the television shows The Irrational, Motherland and The Good Doctor. He’s also appeared in over 35 Hallmark Movies. You can learn more about Daniel at the link below!
You need to take this if you are:
Struggling to find choices outside the character breakdown and stage directions
Having difficulty finding fun in the auditions process
Second guessing if the choices you make are landing effectively
At the end of this workshop, you will be more confident that the auditions you are doing are distinct, dynamic and personalized. Instead of generating self tapes based on what you think "they" want, you will be excited to send in self tapes that are a true reflection of your own creative inspiration.
