Get insight on your own auditions by becoming a casting director and listening to others!
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 Julia uses to cast for games like The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, Hades II, Cyberpunk 2077, Spider-Man 2, 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 a shortlist of Julia’s top submissions*, and learn what makes those auditions strong!
*The number of those accepted onto the shortlist is determined by the number of signups and will vary.
*For those who sign up before Sept 1, you will receive audition information on Sept 1st. For those who sign up after Sept 1, you will receive audition information by the end of the day that you have signed up.
Please note that the audition information for this class is for educational purposes and does not guarantee employment.
