How do you...?

Question

Does anyone know how to make an audition tape?

Answer 1

You get a camera, and you film it.

Answer 2

You say your long slate, commercial and then a monologue.

Answer 3

yes, you need a camera, and yes, you film it, but i'm guessing you knew that already.

your tape should be a showcase of your talent. you will want to take a few seconds (20-30) of you doing different types of roles (comedy, dramatic, tragedy, musical, etc.) You want to pick scenes that make you stand out - that are memorable. These scenes should be monologues, preferably from a performance or dress rehearsal, but make sure the film quality is good.

review your old performance tapes and make your selections. then record your favorite scenes onto a vhs tape (or a dvd, depending oh how the casting people want it). label it clearly with your name, address, and phone number.

your audition tape should be about 2 minutes long MAX, which isn't much time, so be choosy about what scenes you pick.
