Overview

A professional theatre worker must develop the capacity for self-initiated and diagnosed body/vocal skills maintenance; for self-initiated research and learning in the field of practice and for the design and presentation of a portfolio of material representative of their professional identity. Professional actors additionally need to have efficient means of interpreting and performing in audition and self-casting processes to maximise opportunities for employment in the wider entertainment industry. This course enables students to learn to apply the knowledge and negotiate the processes for audition fulfilment and professional representation in industry appropriate forms and platforms.

Students will complete a series of authentic assessment tasks based on industry practice in performance training linked to real-world industry training experiences. This course mentors students through a process of establishing regimes of sustainable reflective practice purposed to effect maintenance of skills and knowledge applicable to a broad range of professional practice. Inherent in this focus is the capability to self-initiate research, learning and the application of processes for the continued improvement and development of professional capabilities. As a part of organising professional portfolio material, students negotiate a range of approaches and techniques for producing effective self-casting tapes and audition monologues. Students will engage in advanced diagnosis and development of interpretive, rehearsal and performance skills in a residential intensive acting workshop prior to producing a series of show-reel vignettes and recording their individual voice-over reels. At the culmination of this course, students will investigate appropriate online platforms for professional representation and the design, cost and maintenance of those facilities.
