Acting auditions advice for California? "Wear nice, comfortable clothes. I know you want to look nice, but make sure you can move around the place. And don't wear a costume."

More basic LA audition tips? Here we go! Yup, stressful are auditions! As an actor you've got to go through them anyway! So read my advice and you'll get that role ;) hehehe! Ok seriously, First of all, to GET LA auditions, you need to SUBMIT your acting resume, your acting headshots to the LA casting director. Maybe once in a while on our acting job section (click here for it) you'll come across what we call OPEN CASTING CALLS where anyone can go audition but they're rare. Usually, you'll be contacted to go.

What happens if you receive a call to audition? Most of the time, you'll get what's called "sides" or simply some lines of the movie script that you have to practice and perform in front of the LA casting director. For a musical, or theatre, you may have to prepare your own monologue as well.

You must then start to read that script and get ready for the part. Try to get as much info as possible about that needed character for the play. Concentration on the personality of the needed role is really important. The age, location, family? etc, AFTER you really master who he is, you'll start focusing on your lines. You learn fast with an audio recorder? Use it, use whatever helps you to remember your acting lines. LA Casting directors usually don't ask the actors to learn everything by heart for the audition but the more you have in that brain, the better!

If you worry about how you need to dress, stop. It's simple and I might be repeating myself but dress like the character for the role would dress. If it's hard for you to know, dress NORMAL. How to warm up before your audition? Simple, stretch, exercise your voice and relax. Practice your lines as long as you can so you don't audition 1 min after arriving like I said "here". You arrive early and you have time for rehearsal, if not, you'll be more stressed out than needed and it's not what you want while you audition. Don't forget to sign it after you arrived at the LA audition, and be patient with other actors waiting in line with you. Be polite but don't talk to them too much,. stay focused on YOUR job. A role is a role, a job is a job, cash is cash.

How can you visualize the audition? It's almost impossible because all LA casting directors have their own way to process. Some might want to talk with you a lil before you start to perform, some might not and simply say a word or two. In any acting audition , be prepared for all scenarios, but one of the most important attitude to keep is a positive happy one! Act like you already HAVE that role ;) Another simple acting tip here is never shaking the hand of the casting director first while still remaining polite. Don't act like the director is your friend, he's not he is an employer. You'll not get that acting role more if you fake being TOO happy to talk to him.

Do your reading , then the director might confirm with you if they have all the right contact info they need to call you back but that's about all. Don't try to impress them , they've seen all kinds of LA actors and know how to discern the "too much" ones. If you get a call for the second audition, that a GOOD SIGN :p, expect a lil more acting pros to be there this time. Like directors, LA producers and maybe the writers. Dress exactly like the first audition and try to perform like that day too! Don't try to re-invent your acting style because the casting director is expecting you to act exactly the same so he can have a second opinion. Auditions may sound complicated when you start your acting career but remember, practice makes perfect!
