Session 1 will begin with an in-depth opening talk that will touch on many of the things you can do to vastly improve your on-camera auditions.
Among other things, Amy will share her signature cold-read technique, which transforms both in-person and self-taped auditions. For instructional purposes, commercial copy will be used, however Amy’s technique and approach can be applied to all kinds of auditions.
The second half of this session will consist of one-on-one coaching with a dozen actors who volunteer to work with Amy (copy will be emailed during the session). During this part of the session, you will see how applying Amy’s technique, along with her clear-cut direction, immediately and markedly transforms everyone’s work.

This will give you game-changing new insight and a keen understanding of what it takes to have the most highly competitive profile and the ins-and-outs of submitting much more effectively.
