About this title

Synopsis

If you are in actor, no matter how successful or well-known, you have to audition. Being able to do it is still the best way to break into theatre, film and television. But not all auditions are alike. A television commercial must be approached differently from a movie or stage show. This guide examines the various kinds of audition actors are likely to encounter, and teaches them how to try out for commercials, radio, television, movies, corporate and industrial films, and the stage. This revised edition covers topics such as computerized casting and CD-ROM work for voice-over actors, and provides expanded help on auditioning for commercials, cable television jobs, and corporate or industrial films, particularly as they relate to CD-ROM and interactive video.
