Keir Gilchrist – Family Guy & Atypical (Netflix)

Improv to Improve
Messy is better than perfect punctuation
Beginnings and Endings of lines
Find the meaning in what you are saying
Taking risks to find connection to the story
Music as an entry point to your audition copy
On your mic, get set, GO!
Each day we will work on:
- What holds you back from booking, and working through your blocks – By working with me, you will experience a huge shift in your reads and a clear direct knowing of how to approach your auditions from here on in.
- Audition copy: Each participant reads and is given feedback from a casting P.O.V. – You will gain a specific self empowering approach to each self tape audition so that you are not wasting your time trying to figure out what ‘casting’ wants to hear.
- Freeing up the voice, beginnings, ends, contrast, color in the voice & discovering how to use your sound/vocal instincts to create an authentic read – These are the key essential elements in booking the job. You will learn how to master all of them.
- Learning simple and effective Audition Preparation – Your energy matters! 75% of voice actors are recording at low energy vocal levels and they sound flat..If you are taping, you must learn what it means to bring energy and connection to your read, before you start recording your audition.
- Making the lines your own – You will quickly break through the blocks in your script reads, busting bad habits, and bringing life, humor and joy to every single self tape audition you do.
- ‘Mastering Self Tapes’ – is an Audition Intensive that teaches you how to take your auditions from good to booking the job.
