How is the audition process going to happen - cold read or what?
Please let me know.

I would be interested in an extra part or some other small part. I am 40 year old white male. My son also has some small time acting experience on stage. I have worked on one fan fare film in a small part. My son Cody is 9 years old and would be very good playing cowboys and indians.

Liana… You did great. You were nervouse but that’s ok… you’re a fine actress.

Do not be nervous, prepare yourself for the cold read and have fun. . Take a few deep breaths and let it out slowly. Be in the moment.
They will mostly likely have a camera for a close up. Don’t move too fast and look at the person and be relax most of all have fun.
