PREPARATION
Please prepare a Johnny Mercer song. Limit your video submission to 2 minutes maximum, which includes your slate (your name). Upload your video audition to Vimeo and include a link for viewing in your email submission. Youtube links are acceptable, but Vimeo is strongly preferred. Please make the link unlisted, not private. Please DO NOT share via WeTransfer, Google Drive, Dropbox, iCloud or other file sharing platforms.
SELF TAPE SUGGESTIONS FOR YOUR AUDITION
* Framing your shot helps. Please make sure your phone/device is in landscape format and not portrait position.
* Make sure the lighting is sufficient. Non-incandescent, bright white lighting that includes some diffusion (non direct, soft) is best.
* The sound is important. An external mic (Lavalier) plugs into your device, is economical and sounds great.
* Your background is clean. Please be aware of what's behind you. A busy or dark background can distract the viewer/listener.
