Conquering the audition process and mastering the tools needed to book the part is a mandatory skill each actor must perfect to survive as a professional. Acting classes don't always prepare the actor for the sabotaging effects of auditioning.
Because of the COVID -19 pandemic, auditioning pivoted from actors being in a room filled with casting directors, producers and directors, to self-taping in their own homes surrounded by ring lights, a solid color backdrop, a microphone, a camera, and the sudden need to add editing skills to their resume.
This second edition of THE AUDITION BIBLE combines the core audition principles and tools discussed in PART ONE and PART TWO in the first edition with a new PART THREE entitled THE NEW NORMAL OF AUDITIONING. Self-taped auditions are here to stay, and in addition to perfecting the art of auditioning, actors now must learn new technical skills needed to produce a successful audition tape on their own.
Whether you are a working actor or just starting to audition, this book will demystify the audition process and guide you into adopting the mental focus of an athlete.
