I'm 14 incase you needed itWww@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Bring the following:

1) 1 or 2 (or more) copies of your Head shot & Resume
2) Portfolio (or comp cards) if its for modeling
3) Your parents

If you are invited to the Agency for the interview, you should also ask what else you need to bring!. For example, depends on the area and your background, some agency requires Working Permit, Birth Certificate!.!.!.all sorts of stuff!. If you are not sure, have your parents call the agency for details!.

What you should wear:

Do not over-dress!. Just dress casual and comfortable!. Make sure you can move well!. Your clothes should also resemble how you look in your head shot!. no heavy makeup, no over-done hair!. You should look like your head shot!.

What to prepare:

Again, ask the Talent Agency representative what you need to prepare for the audition!. A song!? A monologue!? A Dance Routine!? Or prepare to read Commercial Sides at the agency!?

What to expect:

The Agent will ask you to perform (see above), then followed by questions about yourself!. For example!.!.!.!. What you have done lately!? Where did you study!? Tell me about your last project!? What do you see yourself doing!? What do you do best!?
Basically the agent wants to learn more about you, as a person - your personality and your interest in this particular career!. So, just be comfortable and be yourself when answering these type of questions!. (I'm sure the agent will ask your parents different set of questions, but that's outside of scope of this post)

Be ready for feedbacks:

Depends on the agent - some Talent Agents will give you feedback on your headshot, your performance, and what else you need to work on!. For example, few years ago, after I auditioned for my manager, she told me that I needed to work on my cold-reading skills, in addition to some adjustments to my monologue performance!.
Do not feel defeated or bad about any negative feedbacks!. These feedbacks are there to improve you as a performer!.

Good Luck! :)Www@QuestionHome@Com

they basically assk you about yourself!.
like what are your hobbies, what are you intoo, do you do sports, ect!.

because all of these things make it easier for them do find you a job; like lets say theres a commerical for roxy winter, and you can snow board its easier for you to get the job because if they need a snow boarder they wouldnt take someone who doesnt know what there doing!.
