SYNOPSIS
Focus: Episodic TV Auditions
These topics will be discussed during class:
• The casting process from script to shooting
• How episodic TV auditions vary from auditions for pilots, film or theatre • The basics of script analysis (who, what, where, when, why?) • The importance of watching “TV” as homework and how to gain insight from it for your auditions
• Feeling and conveying confidence in the audition room
• How to interpret confusing direction
• Letting the audition go and moving on to the next
• The role of the casting director
A selection of sides will be sent out to actors 48 hours prior to class based on your casting access profile headshots. (Make sure they are up-to-date!) Instructions below. Must cancel before June 25, 2022 @ 5PM PST.
Actors will work on sides 1-on-1 with Kendra but in front of the entire class. Thoughtful and specific feedback will be given to each actor and selected sections run again to incorporate educational notes.
There will also be a time for Q&A, allowing actors to get clarity on anything they saw in class or get specific answers on topics of their choosing.
RSVP'D Actors will receive a ZOOM Invitation to participate on the morning of the class.
