"D. Candis Paule is exceptional
and kno
ws her stuff. Her being both an actress and
a casting director
helped in that she knows where the actor was coming
from and knew what advice to give to help the actor to make their
audition better. She doesn't miss anything the actor is doing, which I
loved about her; along with her dedication and expertise. I don't know
of any other workshop that gives you the experience of working on camera
and information that is so valuable. " Anne S.
"I
was really delighted to see ho
w
much
everyone improved from the first class. Not only was the audition
technique better, but everyone's acting technique improved as well."

"It
was great to be able to compare
myself to what others did in the same
role. In auditions you never know how you did. Here, you can get some
kind of idea about how you measure up." Sharron V
"You start to see who looks really real
on camera and who doesn't. Then you start to ask yourself, 'How do
they look so real?' 'What are they doing differently?' and
by asking yourself those questions, you start to figure out this whole
audition process."
"You can learn so much from the other's auditions. Some do something great that you can take note and try yourself, others may have a nervous habit and make a note not to do that."
"I like that it wasn't easy and it
challenged me. I like being
forced into an unnatural and real
environment which allowed me to truly practice an audition. It's not like
hanging out at your friends house and doing mock auditions." Adam D.
"I really liked how nervous I felt when I was auditioning in front of everyone. It was like I was really in an audition and it gave me an opportunity to practice controlling those nerves." Ray S.
"I learned
how arduous the casting process is for the people casting. I realized
how important it is to go in, be fresh, make an impression, and
skedaddle with a smile. "
