Each should be approximately two to three minutes in length. Here are some audition Do s and Don’t s: Don’t audition unprepared. Do seek help or coaching. Don’t use props. Don’t act action-sequences. Do practice with a camera. Don’t perform self-written material. Do choose speeches that suit your age and about which you feel passionately. Don’t perform more than one character. Do be prepared to improvise. Don’t mimic well-known movie actors. Do personalize the words. In the interview, please be prepared to discuss your previous experiences, your expectations and career goals.
There are no guarantees of acting jobs in the film or television industry but there is an assurance that the graduates will be competitive. Invited industry professionals regularly visit with our students and share their experiences. Occasional field trips and on set visits can be arranged with the help of our professional faculty. In addition, the program offers courses that emphasize industry specific business information.
