New! ADVANCED Film & TV Audition Technique - 4 Week On-Camera Class with Susanne Scheel Eleazer CSA, Casting Associate, Ellen Chenoweth Casting

Monday, February 15, 2016, 7pm ET / 4pm PT

This event is in the past.

Picking up from where her 4 week Film and TV technique class left off, Susanne's focus over the course of this ADVANCED four week class will be getting you audition ready so that you consistently perform at the best of your individual ability.

You'll learn vital tools and skills so that you avoid the feeling of bombing an audition or going into an audition and really being off the mark. Susanne will concentrate on more advanced scenes so that you have a chance to work on difficult material that hopefully will parallel what you're getting called in for in the real world- harder & larger roles as you advance in your skill level and career.

Susanne will also explore in depth the 1st audition, call back & chemistry read process.

***Prerequisite for this class is Susanne's 4 Week On-Camera Film & Television Technique class.***
