Tips for Making an Audition Video

Equipment
  • You can use your phone, tablet, computer.
  • Your phone or tablet should be set horizontally- put in airplane mode or do not disturb mode to avoid interruptions.
  • Use a tripod or stand if you have one.
  • Be sure the device is at the right distance from you to frame the shot. Do not use the zoom function as this makes the image grainy or fuzzy.
  • Have someone else start and stop your music.
Background
  • Stay away from a lot of clutter, use a simple background. 
  • Be sure the light is good. Try to minimize shadows on your face. 
  • Be sure the room is quiet. No background noise (television noise, other people practicing, dancing, cooking, etc.)
Recording
  • Look into the camera at your eye level. 
  • Tell us your name, grade, and what you’ll be singing. Everything should be in one video, including introduction and performance without any editing. 
  • Have someone else start and stop the recording & start and stop your track.
  • Vocalists be sure we can see the ¾ of your body and the camera is at your eye level. Be sure you are in the center of the frame. 
Dress Attire
  • Wear solid color clothing.  
  • Avoid long, loose sleeves and baggy clothing.   
Check Your Work
  • Before submitting, make sure there is video AND audio. 
  • Make sure it is right side up. 
  • Watch and listen all the way through to make sure there are no skips, pauses, or glitches in your audition, and that you are satisfied with your submission.
