Always focus on your character's objectives. What do they want and how are they going to accomplish it? Do a brief character analysis, applying this to your entire scene and to individual lines as neccessary.

And don't forget the energy! If you get up there and have a purpose and energy, any director who's not a moron will see potential in you.

Good luck!
