TECHNICAL SELF-TAPE INSTRUCTIONS

RECORDING DEVICE / FRAMING:
  • You can record your self-taped audition on a cell phone camera, you do not need a fancy camera. 
  • Your phone or camera should record in the landscape / horizontal position (Sideways) 
  • Please do NOT leave excessive empty space between your head and the top of the frame or feet and the bottom. 
  • For the Slate and Scene please frame yourself up so we can see you from the waist up. (noted again below)

LIGHTING / AUDIO:
  • Record your audition in a well-lit area. Soft and/or natural light is preferred.
  • Your light source should come from behind the camera, not from behind you, otherwise we will only see your silhouette. 

LOCATION:
  • Record in an uncluttered area where we can see you clearly. Ideally against a neutral backdrop.
  • Avoid loud or noisy areas (i.e. fans, street noise, etc.). ​

WARDROBE:
  • A button up shirt and slacks

SCENE INSTRUCTIONS AND SCRIPT

FRAMING: ​Frame yourself in camera so you can be seen from the waist up. Look slightly off camera, never info the camera.

TAKES: Please provide THREE DISTINCTLY DIFFERENT TAKES OF THE BELOW SHORT SCENE. 
Feel free to ad-lib any additional lines but make sure to give us at least 1 take of JUST this scene as is. 

CONTEXT: You are a warm and friendly Dentist walking into a patient's room, you've known this patient for awhile and have heard they are retiring. 

SCENE:

Walk into the frame from off camera and greet your patient who is waiting for you.

DENTIST:
"Hey, I heard you're retiring soon. You excited?"

Your patient turns around looking shocked to see you because she thought she'd been talking to you for the last few minutes.
