Thea’s approach to casting is fun, positive and welcoming – you will feel comfortable to be yourself and show your best work in this Casting Workshop!
In this hands-on workshop participants will:
-
Will perform a scene for Thea, and she will give you direction and feedback on your scene, which you will need to bring into your next take
-
(if time permits it) You will get a chance to do a cold read of a new scene and work on the fly, just like in the audition room!
-
a Q&A where Thea will provide invaluable insight into casting in the T.V. and Film industry.
PREPARATION:
We will send you a scene 5 to 7 days prior to class commencement. Please ensure you have learnt this scene – treat this like an audition!
