+ WORKSHOP FORMAT

Following an introduction, participants will film their tape with Amanda under audition conditions (with the whole group present). We have superb equipment for the best learning experience. Amanda would like you to bring a scene you have recently auditioned with to the workshop. Amanda 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. {This workshop adheres to CDG guidelines and isn’t an audition}.
