5 Audition Success Steps To Let Your Audition Go With Bang



5 simple steps to win auditions



Not Winning Auditions?Here Are 5 Great Audition Steps To Grab Film/TV Roles




1 – Learn Your Lines 


You’ll be asked to perform a piece from the script – so make sure you know it and remember if possible, word by word. In a regular audition, you’ll get a minus mark if you’re less than word perfect. So I expect the same from you here, at the start of your career.

2 – Make Decisions How To Play The Character


Think long and hard, and decide what’s really going on in your character’s world (The one you are going to portray). What’s that about the character not mentioned in the script? Don’t just speak your lines like hundreds of others. Don't be uncertain. Decide.


3 – Don't Hesitate To Take Risks 


You’ll get nowhere by playing it safe. So listen to that inside voice of yours, telling you to "go out and don't worry". Do something different, to bring out hidden qualities in your character. Free and open up...


4 – Make The Best Use Of Space Allowed In Front Of Camera Or The Room


If there is a scene, may be your co-actor in the audition room, think how would your character move, do things and fill the space? For example, would the character pick things up? Play with objects? Use the doors and windows? Fiddle with light switches? Involve the furniture?


5 – Be On Time


The casting people are looking at your attitude just as much as your talent. So even if there’s valid reason, a train or bus strike and the city grinds to a halt, they want to see you there on time. That shows how you are committed.


Okay – so follow these steps

Start with a bang

And your audition should go with BANG!
