Importance of Auditions

admin — Mon, 24 Oct 2011 20:13:33 +0000

In an industry of constant ups and downs, I find it’s SOO important to value not only every booking, but more importantly, every audition. With over 700+ auditions under my belt in the last 3 years, I have learned to take every audition as an opportunity to perform and impress.

The audition is never for the one job, it’s a chance to put yourself on the top of that casting director’s list for future projects. It can be difficult to remain determined, but every callback and repeat visit to the same CDs, tells you that you are doing a great job with everything within your power. You can’t control the interests of the product reps, ad agencies, producers, directors, etc, that ultimately make the call, but you CAN control the impression you leave, regardless of whether or not you book.

PROJECT: Las Vegas Runway show

admin — Tue, 20 Sep 2011 01:14:29 +0000

On 8/22 & 8/23, 4 girls, and I from my agency, Q, were hired to walk in the PROJECT fashion shows for MAGIC week in Las Vegas!

We arrived in Vegas on Monday afternoon, got settled, then had rehearsals Monday evening. After, we all went out for dinner and some dancing at Marquee Nightclub. We were up early Tuesday morning for hair and make-up and went straight into 3 runway shows. Each show had 3 different looks and hair and makeup changes, not to mention 12+ girls in a 4×10 backstage area- it was a madhouse! After the shows, we had a few hours to kill in the casino, and it was back to LA, Tuesday night!

It was a whirlwind of a trip, but the clothes were beautiful and I had a blast getting to know the other girls
