8 thoughts on “Acting and Modeling Quick Tip With Aaron Marcus – You Must Add These 2 Things to Your Audition”
Hi Aaron,
I enjoyed hearing you speak at the John Casablanca’s NY tour. As you where speaking, I felt a sense of kindness and openness from you.
I have a question. When I try to apply myself for different casting calls. What is the best way to word the note/email to the director.
Should I say, Hi, My name is Rachel Justice? Or should I say Dear Casting Director?
Should I say I am interested in auditioning for you? Or is that already obvious? Should I take a sentence to describe myself to how I would fit the part I am trying out for? Should I say, if I am a good fit for you my links are https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQ107TQolJw0TGAcvm2BBFw or should I say I look forward to your audition process?
Thank you for reading this Aaron,

Thank you so much for the kind words. I would definitely say Hi Jeff or Dear Mr. Ringwald. I would not just say Dear Casting Director. Make it personal.
If there is a specific role that you are right for, then you can say, I am Rachel Justice and I would be perfect to play the role of Dr. Marcus. I have been cast as a doctor in
????. I would also have you head shot on the top of your letter head so the casting director can see your face while reading your note.
Thank you for reminding us all to not be afraid to take our moment before and our moment after. I have found this works in auditions for theatre as well as film/TV. And it tends to help calm me down. Also, thank you for demonstrating. It’s so much better when one can see what someone is talking about.
Thank you Aaron for the wonderful tips about taking your moments before and after an audition. How very smart and now I know that tip too. Thank you again and I will look forward to trying this technique. Best Gwen

Good afternoon, Aaron.
Thank you for your professional advice. I will remember to follow your instructions the next time I audition.

You are so welcome Shondra. Are there any other tips you can offer folks for things to do and not do at an audition?
