*Okay so I try to keep hush hush about auditions that I go on, just in case I don't get the part. Can't think like that anymore. Because I WILL get the part (but if I don't, it was not meant for me). I'm going to share this with you because someone shared it with me.
This Time (Short Film)
Directed by Matthew Cherry
Written and Starring Reagan Gomez
also stars Terri J Vaughn
*Based on the song "This Time" by John Legend.
One thing I learned from working as a casting assistant is research who you are auditioning for, what you are auditioning for, any information you have about the audition. All the information was given to us by the director. He set up a blog for the short film and it followed his work throughout pre-production. [
This Time Movie Blog ] I also learned to be yourself and Have Fun! (I'm still improving with unleashing my full personality) The Audition was UStreamed, exciting and new. :)
Here's the Script and my Script Analysis for the lines I was given to read. Which I learned from Matthew Cherry's blog. (well most of it there's a few more points on the back)
Also a link to the song.
This Time- John Legend
If you get the role, Great! You were confident and prepared and your talent shined through. If you don't get the role, Great (well not so great) but still Good, because first impressions are lasting impressions and you just made an impression. You just wasn't right for it and they found someone who was. It's all about getting the best quality work. so
SMILE it may be your role the next audition!
**Oh I forgot to tell you. On my way to the audition I was right behind this bus, and it got off on my exit and turned right, just like me.
it says "follow me to New Life". I noticed it and said hey that's smart and then I said wait a minute... God are you trying to tell me something? I am LOVING it and following.
