10-DAY SELF-TAPE CHALLENGE

 

THE CHALLENGE

As the industry works in a fast pace environment, it is important as an actor to be prepared at all times and ready to send in your best work.

This 10-day challenge has been designed to keep you audition ready and help sharpen your self-taping skills in order to optimize your chances of booking but mostly to help you focus on the acting, character work and strengthen your memory. The more you do it, the better you will get at it. After 10 days of submitting a self-tape each day, we guarantee you will have progressed.

Oh and it’s also a lot of fun!
