I was so glad to hear that some of you enjoyed part 1 of my ballet audition video where I gave advice on how to prepare and what to do during a ballet audition—whether it’s for a school, a company, or a summer intensive.
➭ IF YOU MISSED PART ONE here’s the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N9vsR9CfiAk
Some things I specifically talked about in this video that's not in this one:
- how to make your CV/resume stand out
- preparation advice, especially concerning presentation
- some things you shouldn't forget like snacks and water!
- all the ways to make a good impression at the audition (that you may not have considered)
I realized though that I missed one very important part, which is the video aspect. This is especially relevant today since more schools (not just companies) will also be requiring videos or zoom auditions.
To help anyone who wants to reach a certain part of the video, I broke it into sections:
✰ EMAIL FOR AUDITIONS @00:47
✰ CLASSWORK VIDEO @1:25
✰ AUDITION/PERFORMANCE VIDEO @5:01
✰ GENERAL ADVICE (incl. ZOOM AUDITIONS) @8:00
Next week I’ll be posting… I don’t want to say a part 3 because it’s not specific to ballet auditions… but a HEART TO HEART that I filmed during this video. I felt that since this audition video explanation was already so long, the heart to heart would be better seen separately—that’s what I’ll be doing. Make sure you're subscribed so you know when it's up! #vulnerabilitytime
Good luck, toi toi toi, merde all you auditioners!
