Actors and Actresses
So what do I need to bring and prepare?
A. Prepare a monologue that best shows your acting skills. It must be age appropriate for you and under 2 minutes. It also needs to show your acting abilities for the camera as onstage acting is very different from on-camera. You will also need to bring in your pictures and resume. If you have an assortment of pictures for us to view please bring them in as it important to us that we have a variety of pictures.
Models
What do I need to bring with me to my interview?
A. Models should bring in a variety of pictures. If you have a portfolio or comp card please bring them in for us to review. Also, bring in a resume with past work experience. If you are new to the industry please bring in snapshots that you have. Please bring in appropriate pictures for this area as the area is conservative.
B. Children who are interested in modeling should bring in pictures that are age appropriate.
Beginners-Adult and Children
What should I expect?
A. Adult and children who have no experience in this industry and are looking to break in should bring in several photographs of themselves where they can be seen clearly. You will be asked to cold read so we can see your capabilities.
What is a cold read?
A. Cold reading is a term used by actors and other performers in theater, television, film and any other performance field. A cold reading is reading aloud from a script or other text without any rehearsal, practice or study in advance.
Cold readings are employed frequently in actor auditions, to allow the agent or casting director to get a general idea of their performing capabilities
