Participants will be guided on how they can use the audition as an opportunity to best demonstrate their range and talent. During the first audition and how an actor can increase their chances of being considered for a role will be covered.
I would like to wish all our MAX talents and models who have auditions this weekend the best of luck!! I know you will all do great and will be crossing my fingers for you. It is a busy holiday season with many of our talents having auditions for things like TD Canada, short films, TV show Hannibal, and other promotional opportunities. I am happy you are all able to schedule this in during this busy holiday season. Lets keep this up into the new year!! Congrats everyone!!!
With all the hustle and bustle of the season, visions of sugar plums, racing cars and vacations swirling in our heads its easy to sometimes forget basic audition etiquette. The most important thing to remember is to always be arrive on time. If anything arrive 15 minutes early! If something happens please call your agency. We understand that things happen, but a Casting Director waiting for a talent to arrive is likea small child waiting for Santa on christmas eve. After that just be confident! You were s elected for an audition for a reason. Have fun and most improtantly you have the agency crossing their fingers for you!!!
