Additionally, this office supervises casting and consults for various cable and premium cable networks.

During this workshop, Elizabeth will discuss the following:

- The overall casting process - Effectively prepping your material and doing background research prior to your audition - Auditioning for network vs. premium cable shows - Tips and advice on how to properly self-tape - What works and what doesn't for your headshot and resume

Based on your HS/resume submission, Elizabeth will select sides for you, which will be emailed to you to prepare 24-48 hours in advance. You'll start off with a Q&A, then she'll be working on-camera using the pre-read format with a reader in a group. Be prepared for feedback and to take adjustments on the fly.

***Scenes will be recorded on-camera. As a courtesy, your video clips will be made available to you within a week. An email notification will be sent when the clips are available to view and download from your Actors Connection account. Please note: from time to time technical issues do occur. As a result, video clips are a courtesy not a guarantee.***

Please upload your headshot and create a resume in your online account upon registration.

PLEASE NOTE: Once scenes have been distributed, if you late cancel you will not be replaced! This workshop is a learning experience. It's not an audition or employment opportunity.
