Laila Odom Black: Self tape lessons from this booking
Congratulations again to Laila Odom Black. This is the kind of result we love to share: an actor who prepared well, recorded a clean self tape and got the role. Bookings like this are why we started recording self tapes in 2014, and why we now teach actors to do it themselves.
If you have an audition coming up, use this checklist before you press record:
- Read the casting notice twice and follow every instruction, including the file name.
- Frame from mid-chest up with the lens at eye level and a plain wall behind you.
- Face a window or one soft light, and turn off the ceiling light.
- Record in a quiet room with your reader beside the lens, a little quieter than you.
- Send two or three clean takes at most, and send them early.
Every booking like this starts the same way: strong preparation, a clean frame and clear sound. Casting can only cast what it can see and hear.
Before your next self tape, read the casting notice twice, learn the words well enough to stay with your reader and send the file early.
