GETTING THE JOB. IMPRESSING IN AN AUDITION


Getting the Job

  • Can you sell yourself in sixty seconds?
  • Inspire an audience by speaking authentically?
  • Talk about yourself with precision and passion?
  • Persuade an audience with your own emotional self-expression?
  • Act and Be at the same time?
For Actors, Writers, Directors, Dancers, Musicians, etc. The Objective is to get the job.

You have an important interview or a chance of a lifetime audition and the casting person says, "Tell me about you." What happens next?  Do you freeze for a moment, does your mind go blank or do you know how to sell yourself on the spot?  Don't find yourself stammering self consciously, stumbling and giving a vague general discourse.  Be prepared by doing this simple exercise. 
                                                EXERCISE OF THE DAY
List five strong points about yourself.
For Example:
1. I love animals
2. I’m honest
3. I’m funny
4. I’m original
5. I’m romantic

Make a list of 5 things you feel you do best.
 1. I read people well.
 2. I’m a good teacher.
 3. I’m a good friend.
 4. I’m good at solving problems.
 5 .I’m good at being alone with myself

Now go back and scratch out 3 in each category as I have done above(be selective) so only 4 attributes are left. Express everything you can about yourself using these choices in 2 min, then do it once again but shorten it to 1 min. Once you know what you like about yourself, you'll be set to go anytime you're called upon to do so.

KNOW YOURSELF. IF YOU DO YOU WILL KNOW WHAT TO PUT OUT THERE. THE PEOPLE THAT ARE INTERVIEWING YOU DO NOT KNOW YOU. MOST LIKELY IN THE BEST CASE SCENARIO,  THEY WILL HAVE LESS THAN 5 MINUTES TO UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU ARE ABOUT. IF YOU KNOW WHAT MAKES YOU SPECIAL AND YOU CAN SHOW THAT...... YOU WILL MAKE A MEMORABLE IMPRESSION WHICH THEY WILL NOT FORGET NO MATTER HOW MANY PEOPLE THEY MAY SEE.

YOU ARE NOT COMPETING WITH ANYONE. NO ONE ELSE IS LIKE YOU OR HAS YOUR LIFE EXPERIENCE, FEELINGS OR EMOTIONS. THE BEST YOU CAN DO IS SHOW WHO YOU ARE. FORGET ABOUT EVERYONE ELSE WHO IS THERE TO AUDITION.

IF THOSE PEOPLE BECOME MORE IMPORTANT TO YOU THAN SHOWING WHO YOU ARE...YOU HAVE LOST THE OPPORTUNITY BEFORE YOU HAD A CHANCE TO WIN IT!

SEE YOU SOON
