WHAT IS THE COURSE ABOUT?
This course is aimed at professional actors who are looking to hone and perfect their audition skills. Everyone starts at Level 1, regardless of experience. This level 1 course is taught by Alastair, who has been teaching at Mixing Networks for 5 years. The course will go in depth about auditioning for drama, soaps and comedy with each script presenting a common pitfall so actors know how to avoid them going forward.

SELF TAPE COURSE
This is the self tape variation of the level 1 course. Once a week for 3 weeks, a small group of actors will be given a script to self tape and submit. The whole class will then review each tape and critique it. Everyone is given homework to do after each class. This particular course will cover the technical sides of self taping such as eye lines and lighting. Each class will last approx. 3 hours.

We are confident everyone will finish the level 1 course with a better understanding of what casting directors are looking for. You then have the option to put your new skills and knowledge into practice by joining the level 2 class upon completing level 1.

The course dates run as follows:
Monday 31/01/22 6pm - 9pm
Monday 07/02/22 6pm - 9pm
Monday 21/02/22 6pm - 9pm
