  • Do the necessary preparation; bring in your best
  •  Have several projects in process so that emergent issues don't interfere

Recording your work  (while we are meeting on zoom, you won't need an SD card)

  • You will need an SD CARD to record your work on our HD camera. MINI SD & MEMORY STICKS- so not work. If in doubt, contact me. Do not wait till you can't work to make sure you have the right tool.
  • Bring your SD card to every class. You'll need it on audition tech night and sometimes for ice cold reads.
  • Email me with your reaction to what you see. Tell me what you learned by watching yourself.
