Audition Tips For Child Actors

No one can underestimate the potential of a child actor and more interestingly they can become the real gems of acting industry in India and abroad. Raising. Nurturing and grooming child actors are a real tough job and one (read parents and experts) needs to be real pro in it and sending them for audition also needs a separate skill set. Here are some essential tips for a successful audition of a child actor.

The most important thing that needs to be remembered before everything is that parents should not bring the child in such an audition which is beyond his or her age. Child actors should not look unnecessarily adult; instead they should look innocent and natural.

What to Do and What Not

Act. Not Mug up and narrate


Remember, here the child actor is auditioning to act in a play or a movie.  Yes, there are situations when merely being a sweet little cupid is sufficient, but for the majority times, the unit is searching for potential actors.  As many individuals stand in front of the director and deliver the dialogues, the kids who enact with emotion and mood live upto the expectation, accomplish and definitely stand out.

Appropriate Make and Get Up: Right for the Age and Role


During acting auditions for kids, all want children who appear like kids. Girls should not showcase caked in foundations, lofty in heels or wearing improperly revealing outfits. Toddler boys don't need to be infolded into their dazzling jackets with shining collars and their hair gelled artificially. Rather most of the acting units prefer children to appear kiddish, natural and as per their age. The real time audition in Mumbai for kids are known for this and people participating in such auditions should know this fact before preparing their kids.

Learn and then Act

Most of the movies and theatres people chose for audition have been in theatres for quite a few time. With a little bit of researching one can look for a sketchy portrayal of these for learning and rehearsal. Many times the audition units even update the list of characters with explanations on the authorised website and social media platforms. The more one comprehend the theatre and the icons, the more one will be able to do with the acting successfully and accomplish the audition with flying colours.

Go Slow. There is no Train to Catch


One sure signal of edginess is hurtling through the dialogue lines.  When a kid talk at too much speed it is stiffer to make certain that each and every word is comprehended and the associated mood that should convoy those lines does not come in between.  Go slow and make sure the child wanna be actor deliver each word explicitly. Just think about the style people adapt while speaking.  For most folks the stride is more laid back, and there are silences dotted during the exchange.  Reminisce, nobody want you to merely read the conversation lines straightaway.  The authorities want the actor to utter the dialogues like the character is a real life icon in a real time tête-à-tête.
