Auditioning by Heart

6-Session On-Demand Virtual Masterclass

Each class teaches professional actors the best approach to organically prepare for film and television auditions within a short time-frame.  Actors receive new sides prior to each class.

Here is how it works:

The Student is granted access to a private group where they will download all materials needed to prepare for class. (Homework template, Sides etc.)

STEP 1. Prepare the audition sides and put yourself on tape as you would with an actual audition. Send it in.

STEP 2. Watch the lesson corresponding with that week’s audition sides and follow the lesson as Crystal prepares the audition with the class in the video lecture. 

STEP 3. Watch working actors’ tapes as Crystal breaks down each one from the LA class and compare notes to your own audition tape.

STEP 4. (optional) Retape. And have Crystal review your audition tape and give you personalized feedback (small extra fee - $40)

Each of the 2 Masterclass Sessions contains 6 classes with 6 lectures (around 2 hours each). For each lecture, actors will receive NEW audition material to put on tape.  Crystal will provide a complete script analysis and character breakdown for each genre of material you are given. (Watch the “lecture” on video after you tape yourself and send it in to us.) 

Each Series uses the same technique, Series 2 explains a bit more, using different words, with different scripts, and different examples. Some of the genres will be repeated and some with be new.

"Auditioning by Heart" is a deep exploration of how to create a character's life from the truth through history homework.  It is practical, not theoretical, and aims to equip you with all the skills and expertise you need to become dynamic and courageous at your auditions. The training is very much student-centered, giving time for individual attention. 

The virtual participant will also watch between 10 and 12 actors from the LA Masterclasses, who have the same material you do. You will see their tapes critiqued during the original LIVE class. Their tapes will be used to demonstrate for you, clear examples of things discussed in Crystal's lecture. 

Now, inspired by these new ideas…tape again! Send your 2nd audition tape to Crystal (for our records).

Actors have the option to be critiqued, one-on-one by Crystal over Skype ($40).

This comprehensive course tackles the most common genres in film and television through a total of 12 lessons that prepare an actor for any possible audition they may receive. Gain the knowledge to make strong choices and avoid the pitfalls in each.
