How it works:
Each student will submit an anonymous audition, and everyone in the class will listen to and give an honest rating for each submission, using the same rating system Melissa uses to cast for games like Arknights, Aether Gazer, Star Wars Jedi Survivor, and more!
After the auditions and reviews have been submitted, join us for class where we compare notes to see if you hear what a casting director hears while reviewing Melissa’s shortlist and/or other notable submissions!
Important Dates!:
*For those who sign up before December 1st, you will receive audition information on December 1st. For those who sign up after December 1st you will receive audition information by the end of the day/following morning from when you have signed up.
Please note that the audition information for this class is for educational purposes and does not guarantee employment.
