October 09, 2020 Top Tips on Why you should become a brand
EYP Podcast Recording - Skill Vs Value
· Welcome – Tony n Sarah Ep. 10
· Last week – Relationships
· Feedback Thank you to listeners
· Skill Vs. Value or EDU vs. Training
o It’s not always the best dancer that gets the job because the biggest talent doesn’t always bring the biggest value
o Reliability – Respect – Teamwork over Talent
· David’s Audition in Vegas
o David who didn’t have a lot of dance training went to an audition anyway and was one of the final 6. He didn’t book the job he was auditioning for; The casting director did not cast him on the advice of someone else who wanted to cast him for another project. “You have the FIRE”
o You never know who’s WATCHING
· What Sarah looks for in an audition:
o Can you follow along, are you catching on quickly, what is your work ethic?
o One of the best things a struggling dancer can do is approach the casting director and ASK what I need to work on
o DON’T BE ALL TALK – after you ask what you need to work on FOLLOW THROUGH. What are you doing to prove your work ethic?
o Show respect for all your classmates, teachers, etc.
· Confidence vs. Conceited
o Conceited – When your ego is bigger than the room – has a tendency to be all about them
o Confidence – Is looking at a project and knowing what you bring to the table and how that brings VALUE to a project
· How to tell the Difference
o Conceit – comes to an audition comparing themselves to everyone else; “oh she can only do a double, I can do a quad”
o Confidence – comes to an audition focused on themselves and what they bring to the table
o Auditions are your commercial – not only a display of skill but also what it’s like to work with you.
· How do you find the value that you bring?
o Follow up
o Do your research – are the TYPE for the cast you’re auditioning for.
o Are you easy to work with?
o Is your parent easy to work with?
o Consistency is KEY
· Tony says “A one-person show is NOT REALLY a one-person show”
· Audition Coming up – NOT THE NUTCRACKER
· Sarah Talks about being a casting director
o Your reputation is very important! Even if you have the skill, if you are hard to work with people will talk and you may lose out on work.
o How you handle yourself in the room speaks volumes
o Take ownership of whatever role is being presented to you
· Sarah calls herself intimidating and Tony brags on her for a bit – all this to say know who your auditioning for
· Skill Vs. Value Summary
o Build your skill
o Take masterclasses
o Network
o Know your why! – your WHY gives you your WHAT and your WHAT gives you your HOW.
o You why Provides your Passion
o Skill and Value are both important – Skill will get you in the room, but Value is what will keep you there.
o Look outside of you ego for what value you bring to a project
· Feedback from the listener
o How do you bring value to any project (arts related or not)
