Knowing your lines are just part of the things you should
have prepared for the audition. Amazed
as it sounds people don’t know what they are even auditioning for
sometimes. It baffles us when someone
comes to an audition and doesn’t have a clue.
Playing dumb and being dumb do not make for a good impression on anyone
in casting. So when I say prepared it is
an overall statement. This is your life
and career so take control of it. Your
agent can only do so much. Know the who,
what, where, why’s of the project and industry.
And know your lines folks. My dog
ate my homework excuse is for the kids commercials we cast, not the adults.
Too many auditions are blown by people not knowing their
copy, understanding their character and making smart choices. So preparation also means continuing your
education with classes and working at your craft daily. Because it is clear to us when you don’t work
at it.
