Your Acting Career Starts With an Audition (part 1 of 2)

http://www.bromotravelindo.com

Your acting career starts with an audition. This is because it is the venue where casting directors look for talented individuals that will soon play a part in a commercial, show or movie.

Auditions are held on a regular basis so you should hire an agent or get this information by reading the newspaper like Variety.

On the day of the audition, dress neatly and casually. Get there early so you will have to compose and relax before your name is called up.

When your name is called, give to the casting director your headshot and resume then do your thing on stage. Most auditions will require you to do a one or two minute monologue and then read from a part of a script. Some will give the audition script days in advance so you can already practice it.

You will then be interviewed so don’t be shy and answer each question to the best of your ability. If they accept you, then that is great! If they feel you have the talent but not for the part they are looking for, better luck next time.

Most auditions take about 2 hours and aside from the casting director, there will be others watching. If you happen to miss the audition due to an important matter, see if you can arrange a private audition. It is even possible to send your audition by mail by sending them the tape or uploading your video to their website.
