ACTORS AUDITION WORK OUT

Join audition coach Marc Baur and casting directors Jackie Lind or Michelle Allen for these very intensive one day work out.

All on camera - Choose from a selection of scenes provided

COMPETITION IS FIERCE

It's tough out there. It has got better, certainly since the Olympics, but competition is fierce. Maybe more than ever before, to get ahead now a days, you have to be really on your game. You cannot afford to dabble with training, or sit back

and wait for your agent to call. Today, if you want a career in acting, you have to work for it.

Yet all to often actors will tell me they haven't got the time or money to train. So I am offering these two workshops, at the lowest cost possible. Hopefully you can take advantage of one or both of them.

You are welcome to choose one or more workshops from the two listed below.

THE WORKSHOP

My hope in producing this workshop, is to offer a fantastic opportunity for actors to be SEEN and LEARN.

In this workshop, Marc Baur will work with you on one audition side of your choosing. Then after a short break, a top Western Canadian casting director (either Jackie Lind or Michelle Allen) will work the same scene with you, from a casting directors perspective.

If time allows, at the end of your session with the casting director, there will be a question and answer session.

You will be asked to choose whatever scene you wish to work

on, from a preselected collection.

All your work will be on camera.

Maximum attendance is just 20 participants.

All work is on camera and you'll receive a DVD of your work

Who Should Attend?

"I found the intensive extremely beneficial! I had so many questions about cold reads and auditions, and after going to the intensive and having the opportunity to work with you and the casting directors, I now feel confident that I will own my audition... I would definitely be interested in attending again." J.H.

"When I signed up, I had absolutely no idea what the instruction component of the intensive was going to be like, and I was very pleasantly surprised! I knew we were in good hands when you said right at the beginning that some of what you would say would work for us and some of it wouldn't. What a refreshing approach!" M.G.

"Thank you for a great workshop. I learned a lot. The whole experience was better than I expected. Great job!"

R.B.

"I thought it was wonderful! I'll for sure be recommending this class to friends and who know maybe I'll take it again sometime in the future. L.W.
