My very first audition opportunity was for a Fitness DVD for a "major" client. I don't know who the major client was, but I do know that the company has done DVDs for Billy Blanks, Kim Kardashian, Bob from The Biggest Loser, etc. I was informed of the audition on a Thursday ... and the audition was that Saturday. It wouldn't have been a problem, if I actually lived in LA. Anyway ... I have a video to explain the problem further.
My second audition opportunity came from a writer/acting coach, via skype (So at least this time I wasn't out of $300). Prior to the audition we had chat convo on skype .. where he basically told me that he doesn't normally hire actors without a lot of experience. So I told him that I could change his mind (trying to sound confident). Anyway, the audition happens, I get nervous, I'm pretty bad apparently. According to him anyway ... blah blah blah ... and so now I have a new acting coach!
I definitely need all the knowledge and experience I can get, so no complaints here! At least now I will have gotten my first bit of LA coaching before I get to LA. He honestly hurt my feelings a bit with his critique, but it definitely won't deter me from my dream, if anything I will work even harder. I still love it. All I can do is soak it all in, learn all that I can, and do my best!
K, bye!
