It's so very important to be professional. As an independent filmmaker I've seen people show up to auditions in shorts and sandals as if it's a weekend hobby for them. That won't win you anything. It's also not about you, but what you can deliver for the casting director. A lot of them don't have the luxury of time to ease you into the audition like I've done in the past. They've got a thousand things to get done, and producers to answer to. So, you've got to walk in, be prepared, make a genuine and professional impression, and deliver the best of what you've got. The art is personal, but the job is business. Always remember that.

Thanks I needed this today. I was in LA for six years and had many more auditions for TV there. Chicago is a different animal...I'm learning.

Hi Leslie. Hope you don’t mind if I ask ya something? I’m in LA now from Oregon. I’ve done lots of local theatre plays, and finally trying to take the long dreamt plunge into Tv/Film. How would you recommend I start? Only here for a few weeks currently as it’s mainly to get a taste, but planning on coming back soon.

@@Rubiksguy try to find some workshops out there in Backstage with casting directors if possible. Watch out for things that seem to good to be true - scams. Go out and meet as many people as you can. See some plays out there too...they exist. :)

Nice tips! Im new to LA, from Bend OR. Have done lots of local theatre productions, and trying to start in TV/Film. Would you recommend looking up Agencies in LA and sending my headshot and resume in? I know there’s a lot of etiquette here, so I’m balancing not stepping on toes with also reaching out for what I want. Thanks!
