Synopsis

  •  18 June 2020 - 19 June 2020
     12:00 pm - 1:30 pm

Over two 90 minute Zoom sessions Julian – from his base in Los Angeles – will work with you on an important fundamental of auditioning: identifying the tone of a TV show or film. These sessions will be focused from a US film and television perspective. Julian will cast 20 of the submitted actors in 20 different US projects that all significantly differ in tone. The successful actors will be invited to submit a self tape. Then, over the two sessions, Julian will examine the tapes to ensure the actor’s performance is operating within the tone of the TV show or film; and if not, how do we identify it and execute accordingly.  Please note any self-tapes that are submitted and not looked at in the ZOOM session will receive written feedback from Julian.

Please note: 12pm is Australian Eastern Standard Time. Selection is by ballot and successful participants will be sent details about how to tune it.  Auditors will be present during these two sessions
