Had an audition today at IO theater. It was quite busy today but I saw Huey. Hopefully I spelled that right. In case you're wondering who he is, I worked with him on a Dell commercial last year. Great funny guy. I also saw another that worked on the Dell but I couldn't remember his name. He was also a great guy. The Dell commercial was the last time I saw the other great guy so it's been awhile. Hope you guys are doing great! Yes yes I said guys many times.
So why this failure. My first take I said my lines perfectly but didn't express it good enough so the person behind the camera, there were two ladies behind the camera and they were extremely nice and easy to talk to, gave me directions on how to say it, so I did my 2nd take and I completely forgot my 2nd line... instead I said something completely different!!! I still finished my script but instead of acting disinterested like she told me to, I think I looked more annoyed and pissed off.
So far this year, this has been my worst 2nd attempt at an attempt. I didn't leave the audition feeling bad or angry, instead I left laughing at myself. That's how you should go through these auditions in life. Laugh at yourself, don't beat yourself up. I laughed at what I said, which was "That's Totally Fine". That's way off from the script by a whole paragraph and many more syllables.
