    Ahh. Well, she IS a high school girl, after all. She's in her puberty, so I'm sure it's difficult for you.

  • (quick burst response)

    EH!? BUT *YOU* SAID IT YOURSELF, CHIEF!

  • (quick burst response - would like to hear the slight difference in intensity between the two sentences)

    ARE YOU A LITTLE GIRL?! Your daughter complex is way too much!!

Thank you for the compliment! I’m happy to provide guidance wherever and whenever I can. :) —— 1. I’ve listened to both your first and second auditions. Just by comparing the two, on the energy level of the 2nd 3rd audition lines, I can hear a vast improvement in terms of getting closer to the narrative device of “quick burst response” in your recording. Well done. —— 2. In audition line 1, I thought your delivery was nice and natural - it’s believably conversational, and that’s a great place to start. Now think about this: you are a 20-something subordinate, giving advice to a much older person, who is in a superior position at work. Would you really use the same delivery? I would direct you to be slightly hesitant, choosing your words carefully (we are talking about his daughter, after all), and inserting more empathy into the delivery. — 3. Listen to the difference in energy in audition line 2 between your first and second audition. The 2nd delivery with elevated energy makes it FAR more interesting and comical. As a director, and all directors out there will tell you this, it’s easier to direct an actor’s energy DOWN than try to bring it UP. If a scene/line/audition calls for high energy, you’ve got to bring the energy. I’d even advise performing the line at a slightly higher energy than directed - a director who knows what he/she is doing, would be able to recognize what the actor is doing. Show them you can go even higher. —— 4. When it comes to ARE YOU A LITTLE GIRL? your delivery in the first audition was more natural, actually. I’d direct you to deliver the cadence of the first audition, matched with the energy of the 2nd audition. Does that make sense? —— 5. About YOUR DAUGHTER COMPLEX IS WAY TOO MUCH, the energy dropped off at the end of the sentence in both auditions. Don’t do that - keep the energy up and maintain it throughout the sentence. The sentence ends in an exclamation, right? It needs to have that follow-through and consistency. — I hope these comments are helpful! Thanks for the 2nd audition - it shows your tenacity and willingness to work. Good luck!

    Thank you for your detailed and good feedback, I really appreciate it. I'm too tired to another one now and I don't wanna deliver something half hearted, but as soon as I wake up tomorrow I'll try to do another take with your advice, thanks.
