Kids Audition Performance

Once your child begins going out on auditions, keep in mind the tendencies
of children. There will be good days; there will be tired days; there
will be high-energy days; and days when, no matter what you promise,
they won't do anything for anybody. Will the casting people understand?
Of course they will.
There will be other calls, other projects, and there's no need to burn
bridges with casting directors over an attitude caused by a missed nap.
The casting director wants to see a child act like a child with their natural characher. When reviewing
a part, besides specific character traits that will be noted both by
the content or the casting agency, children should be themselves. No
casting director wants to see an eight-year-old child act like a twenty-fiveyear-old young person. Tell your kid just be himselfe/herself, just create his or her own skills of acting! The kids can imitate others, but they should not always be others!
The only thing your child really needs to know is to have fun!
When it's your child's turn to attend to the kids audition, tell them good luck and wait
outside, do not give them pressure or make them nervous. The casting director needs to know that a child can perform without
the parents around.
