“QUOTES”
- Every commercial audition is a vehicle for your personality.
- In commercials, the character is you. Nobody does you better than you; heck, you’ve been doing it for 20, 30, 40+ years. Believe me, I know – I’m seen plenty of others try to do Vicki, and no one does it even remotely as well as me.
- In dialogue auditions, your screw-ups may be gifts from the gods.
- If you screw up, make-it-up. You’ll always find your way back to the copy, and no one will die.
