Taught by a professional casting director, this workshop gives students an inside look at how actors are cast for stage and screen. Participants learn essential audition room skills—how to slate, take direction, and adjust performances quickly—as well as on-camera technique for self-tapes and in-person reads. Through mock auditions and feedback, students build confidence, professionalism, and a clearer understanding of what casting directors look for. The session concludes with a supportive showcase-style experience that celebrates growth and individuality.
