+ WORKSHOP FORMAT

Having looked at your Spotlight CV and Showreel, Kristina Erdely will send out a selection of scenes before the workshop. Please choose a scene that suits you best regardless of gender, age and ethnicity. Kristina would like you to be as familiar with the text as possible.

Following an introduction, participants will film their tape with Kristina under audition conditions (with the whole group present). We have superb equipment for the best learning experience. Kristina will give each participant notes allowing them the chance to do a second take. This will be followed by a short tea break and an informal Q&A.

Your scenes will be recorded with broadcast quality equipment. Upon request, you have the option to receive your footage after the session for no extra cost!

{This workshop adheres to CDG guidelines and isn’t an audition}.
