When you get an audition, don't immediately look at the breakdown (the description of the role). Instead, go straight to the script and follow your instincts on how to approach the character. Analyze why the character exists and why the scene is important. Once you have your own take, then look at the breakdown to see if there's anything you need to add. Don't try to give them what you think they want; be true to yourself and your instrument (your unique approach). Approach your audition with curiosity, confidence, calmness, and clarity (C-MODE). Don't just play at an emotion, be curious about why the character is feeling that way. Remember, there's no right or wrong point of view, but having a CLEAR point of view will make you stand out in the selection process. And if you need help, coaching, consulting, or cheerleading, I'm here for you (full C-Mode channeled)!

"Pending your interest" is the crucial phrase to remember when considering audition opportunities. Don't just jump at the chance without thinking if you're actually interested in the material, the role, and the people involved. Saying "I have an opportunity" instead of "I have an audition" can also help you approach the experience in a positive light. Remember, if you're not interested, it's okay to say NO. And in the current climate of the writer's strike, it's important to qualify your interest based on where you are in your career and whether you've worked with the casting director before. So, don't be desperate and grab at everything. Be intentional and make informed decisions.
