When Sean Young, donning a leather costume, mask, and a whip, stormed into the studio demanding an audition for the role of Catwoman in Batman Returns, director Tim Burton hid under his desk.
Case-in-point: Persistence vs Pestering
When asked to read for a role, Shelly Winters once slammed down her two Oscars and asked the casting director, “Ya still want me to audition?” She got the part.

The night before his audition, Mel Gibson got a broken nose and disconnected jaw in a bar brawl. Director George Miller loved the look and cast him as Mad Max.
Case-in-point: Looking the Part vs Being Yourself
AUDITION STRATEGIES is a one-day, intensive workshop for actors who want to learn simple and effective techniques, facts, and tips that will get them the parts they want.
Who Should Attend: Aspiring actors who have talent, passion, discipline, and even agents, but hit a wall every time they audition, never able to pinpoint exactly what goes wrong.
Why This Class: This workshop is NOT an acting class. It is not conducted by an acting teacher, a coach, an agent or even a casting director. Instead, it is conducted by the casting DECIDER, aka the producer/director. He is the one who actually sees what mistakes actors make and knows the dos and don’ts of auditioning.
What You Learn: In this 1-day, intensive, hands-on workshop, actors will go through each step of the audition process and learn fast, simple and effective ways to build your portfolio, your confidence, and your chance to get the part. Participants will quickly become adept at handling real-world situations through lectures, Q&A's, and demonstrations, providing them with the tips and tricks necessary to capture the audience – the Producer.
Teacher : Eric Lau, Director/Producer for 34 years.
