We have provided simple guidelines below to help you produce great self-tapes.
DO
Be professional and prepared when you tape yourself. Treat this audition the same as you would if you were physically in the room with the casting director.
Record your audition in front of a solid coloured curtain or a blank wall. Too much clutter in the background can distract from your performance. Also, be aware your outfit should not blend or contrast with the colour of your backdrop.
Find a quality reader. Make sure your reader stands behind the camera, to ensure your focus and positioning is towards the camera. Your reader should not be seen on camera unless requested.
DON’T
Don’t use a webcam, we recommend using a digital camcorder that fits your budget and have a peer operate the camera for you.
Overhead fluorescent lights create deep shadows on your face which can make you look aged or change your appearance completely. Ideally, use two incandescent lights (bulbs with filaments). One as a key light, set to the opposite side of the camera a little farther away and pointed at your face. If you are filming in a bigger space and need more lighting, set a second light opposite side of the camera, pointed at your side.
Castings has requested a certain number of takes and/or scenes. Doing more than is asked could be considered presumptuous by the casting director. Don’t do more than the castings has asked for.

Our Talent Spotlight of the day is Toronto teen model and actress, Kidan P.
Kidan, who is now a French immersion student in grade 12, has a special past. At 3 years old, she was a poster child for an adoption agency in Ethiopia. Her mother found her through that poster and inquired about her!
Being from the Amhara Tribe in Ethiopia, she only spoke Amharic when she came to Canada. It took 3 months for her to learn English and she is now also fluent in French.
Her life with her family is all that she knows. The only connection she has to Ethiopia are the photos and stories that her family members have shared with her. But Kidan hopes to change that soon and have stories of her own to share about her birth country.

Kidan has started trying ot reconnect to her culture. She has discovered Ethiopian Cuisine here in Toronto and have plans to visit the country soon.
“My mom and I hope to return to Ethiopia, to fund a home that enables women to keep their children and not have to worry about famine. We want to help African women learn trades and skills so that they are able to support their families. During the time that they are learning and getting up on their feet, we will take care of their children until they are able to do so.
Most children are adopted because their parents can not afford to feed them. Many children starve to death or die from other illnesses, from things like living in unsanitary conditions or not having clean water. We can teach them how to grow and preserve food, and help by providing clean sources of water. All while teaching them social skill sets that will help them in all areas of their lives.”
