Auditions: Saturday, June 25, 2011

This page contains auditions posted on Saturday, June 25, 2011.

What inspires you and motivates you to keep going in what can sometimes be a very challenging industry? In a field with lots of rejection, it can be challenging to stay positive and strong, but sometimes our passion alone drives us through.

What keeps you inspired and motivated? Do you have a mantra that you say before every show or before that close up shot? Do you have have a book that you read that helps you feel grounded and confident? Maybe staying in the social scene or taking classes does the trick?

Share with the community what you do to continue to motivate yourself to keep going and stay positive in an industry that can easily break someone's confidence.

As always, if you are a fan of the blog, please share this with actor friends.

Thanks.

Hello-

I am filmmaker and graduate student looking for models/actresses for a video sculpture project. I've just won a SIFF short film contest and am also currently doing gallery installation video art work.

This project would require a one-hour shoot. The acting/modeling will be filmed by me at the Seattle Center -- I say "modeling" as there will be no dialogue and likewise no acting "to" the camera.

Maximum one hour of work.

If you're interested, please respond with an email including:

1) name
2) age
3) ethnicity
4) several current photos attached as jpg or tiff files with at least one showing face up-close and one showing full figure. attire that you would wear to a concert would be ideal

thanks,
erik
