Auditioning - The Critical Skill Kids Can Develop in Kids Act LA Acting Classes

Auditioning is just another skill on the roster, but a skill that is just as critical as scene study, emotional preparation or any other acting skill you might pick up for your kids in Kids Act LA Acting Classes or elsewhere. Becoming a working actor is essential to gaining experience, and becoming a working actor can't happen if you don't audition well. Developing auditioning skills may be up to you as some acting classes NYC don't cover this thoroughly. Landing a role is luck and timing but, none of that matters if you're not prepared when the opportunity comes.Kids Act LAActing Classes offer one of the most respected acting disciplines in the business. And, Meisner acting techniques can be used to improve auditions as well.

There are several ways an actor is guaranteed to fail when auditioning. The first way to fail is to enter the audition with overconfidence. At the same time one cannot allow oneself to be overly nervous or insecure, unless the role calls for it. Either one of these can count heavily against you--and not because auditors don't like overly nervous or over confident actors. It's actually the block that these types of feelings cause, which inhibits the emergence of an authentic arresting character.

An overconfident actor may come across as being too rehearsed, without enough room for spontaneity to emerge during the audition. Too nervous, and it's too distracting to you and the auditors and you run the risk of not being open to the performance and the emerging character. Many layers of human traits must be there, along with the one or two that are at the core of the characters being in the story.

Many preparing for auditions consider the slate unimportant. As many of you know, the slate is when you state your name into the camera so the auditors can keep track of everyone they've seen. This is not a throwaway moment, it's an opportunity. This is the bad news. There is no guarantee ever that a producer or director will watch a tape past the slate. For any given part there are likely hundreds of folks auditioning. They are on the lookout for the best of the best and a so-so slate will indicate that your tape is not worth their while. So, a quick dismissal of someone who doesn't slate well gets them closer to their goal.

This may seem tough, but no one said auditioning was easy. Learning to slate well is one way to get an advantage over some of the actors you go up against. Some acting classes teach excellent auditioning skills knowing how important they are.Acting classes at Kids Act LAis a great resource for learning about slates.

Keep the information to a minimum and keep it simple. The shorter the better so they move on to the critical thing, the audition. It won't hurt in commercial auditions to put a hint of the character in your slate but avoid going over the top. If you fall short of their expectations they may hit the eject button before the actual tape. The aim of the slate is to give them a sense of who you are as an actor and a person. Slate and then, give them a brilliantly original, fresh fascinating character that will make their project soar. Creating character, building spontaneity into a performance and other essential auditioning skills can be learned by studying Meisner acting at Kids Act LA.
