Course Overview

You’ve just received a new self-tape audition from your agent. Where do you start? Which strategies do you use to find confidence, freedom and play?
This 4 week workshop will equip you with the essential framework and immediately actionable tools to give your most authentic audition performance.

Course Outline

This 4 week course will focus on:

  • Script analysis techniques
  • Imagery – grounding yourself in the 5 senses of scene.
  • Techniques to get specific about your own interpretation of a scene (specificity brings freedom and confidence to play).
  • Techniques to work with nerves and self doubt.

Course Outcome

Through this course, you’ll find freedom to:

  • Play and discover, rather than striving to “get the audition right.”
  • Honestly listen and be truthfully changed by the other actor.
  • Experience more genuine connections with other characters in the scene.
  • Let go of control over the scene.
  • Make more exciting choices and “raise the stakes” in the scene.
  • Be more curious about (and enjoy!) your own interpretation of a character and scene.
