Nancy Bishop, CSA Casting Director and author of Auditioning for Film and TV, offers a special three day MASTER CLASS and  INTERNATIONAL MARKETING SEMINAR for actors who wish to position themselves for international work. All students will get a free copy of “Auditioning for Film and TV”

 

Stay on top of your audition technique with this two-pronged class. Learn valuable skills for self-taping your own auditions, as well as improving your studio on-camera training.

 

Sunday November 8th: 10:00 – 16:00

Actors are increasingly asked to tape their own auditions and send them digitally to casting directors. Actors who master the skills of self-audition have a crucial advantage in booking the role. In this workshop, participants will be assigned material in advance, prepare a self-taped audition and post it to a drop box. On the day, Nancy Bishop will give a critique of the material.

Students may also bring head shots, and promotional material for review. Nancy will also assign scenes for a mock casting on the following day.

Monday November 9th: 10:00 – 16:00

Targeted exercises will hone on-camera work. Actors will rehearse and record their assigned scenes, followed by view and review. Get professional advice from a casting director who is actively working in the field. Nancy’s book “Auditioning for Film and TV” (Bloomsbury) will be available at the class.

Tuesday evening November 10th, 19:00

Join Nancy as she launches her new book, “Auditioning for Film and TV” (Bloomsbury) for a lecture sponsored by Spotlight, Europe’s premier actor database. Lecture will be followed by book signing and party. Seminar for actors will focus on strategies for actors to promote themselves and procure work in the international market. Topics will include how to best take advantage of the internet for marketing, organize a professional CV, choose a winning headshot, produce an effective show reel record auditions to send to production, and use social media.         

 

Seminar guests will also have an opportunity to get a special limited offer discount to join Spotlight. Gary Broughton from Spotlight, Europe’s premiere casting database, will be on-hand to answer questions.
