6-week On Camera Auditioning Workshop
with Victor Villar-Hauser
With the majority of all auditions for television and film requiring that the actor be put on camera for the casting director and/or producers to review, today's working actor must possess a solid camera technique that is specific to the audition format. In this course strong cold-read and on-camera skills are developed as well as an empowered perspective of the casting process and a clear understanding of what it truly means to "own" the room.

This class specifically addresses:
Physicality: Developing awareness of your vocal blocks through rigorous exercises.
Breath: Exploring the central role breathing plays in vocal production and creativity.
Vocal Quality: Cultivating the ability to effectively communicate our thoughts and feelings while meeting the demands of the script's text.
