by BWW News Desk - Sep 18, 2010

Every acting job in film and television begins with an actor standing in front of the camera, holding a script and wondering 'What do they want me to do?' The camera audition, for many actors, is the most excruciating part of the process. This one day seminar will prepare you to confront that moment by focusing on the audition as the first creative step in the development of the role.

Thus you'll get cast more often because the odds will be in your favor.
