Course Description
Considering the lucrative field of TV commercials or seeking to improve your confidence in personal or business communications? In this course, participants take part in simulated, recorded auditions for both "slice of life" dialogue and "spokesperson" narrative. To help you attain confidence and awareness, taped performances are sensitively directed and critiqued in class. This workshop provides a comprehensive overview of a commercial's production so auditioning actors understand the through-line of the process, from what advertisers are looking for and the steps to get there. You learn best professional practices for successful audition techniques--whether in person or self-taped submissions--as well as the elements of proper photography, building a strong digital portfolio, agency representation and union membership.Course Outline
