The Essentials of Screen Audition and Self-Tape Processes
Suitable for all skill levels from beginners to advanced, this 2 Day Intensive Workshop is designed to expose 8 - 12 year old students to a range of professional skills that are relevant to preparing for and winning roles within both US and Australian productions. Students will focus on working truthfully and spontaneously to create believable, unique and dynamically engaging screen performances, and on performing confidently and with ease in the  audition room or in a self-test situation.
 
Under the combined tutelage of Tom and Dave, in an energetic and fun environment, the students will undertake modules exploring:

  • A comprehensive explanation of the audition process

  • How to prepare for an audition, whether it is a self tape or an 'in-the-room' audition

  • Screen Audition Techniques - including slates, TVC improvs, and chats to camera

  • Fundamental Script/Scene Breakdown & Rehearsal of a scene

  • Simulated Auditions and individual feedback

  • Self-Tape tutorial for both parents and students 

​

NB: Parents are encouraged to attend the Self-Tape Tutorial module of this workshop at 1.00pm on Tuesday 16th January.

​

This program provides an intensive education platform for young actors who desire to strengthen their performance skills, and develop professional industry-relevant knowledge in the craft of screen audition.

​
