Well,
Seems like summer is almost gone already! Shocking! It feels like we just got off for the summer and now we're back!
This summer has been very interesting and I really believe I've had the time to grow a lot as a person. The top of the summer was my trip to Botswana which offered a lot in the way of learning as a teacher and as an artist. The rest of this summer I spent working in the Admissions office here at Juilliard which taught me a lot about how educational institutions are run.
I've spent a lot of time getting my business as an Audition Coach started. I'm excited that I now have 3 additional clients that I'm working with! New Actors that are interested in breaking into the industry , who need assistance getting their career on track. One of my clients has already booked her first film! Very exciting! I make sure to cater each session to their needs. For instance , if I'm working with a client that has difficulty with vocal projection, we'll devise an individual vocal-warm up geared towards increasing their sound in a space. Or often I'll have an actor, that's slowly becoming comfortable with using their body, and many of the movement exercises I've learned, I'll guide them through to encourage them to move with a level of freedom onstage. I love to watch performers grow. And it's also a great opportunity to reinforce my training here as a student.
If you, or anyone you know ifs preparing for an audition for a training program, feel free to contact me! I'd love to work with you!
In regards to school, we're gearing up for our first show "TOP GIRLS" here at Juilliard. I'm excited about the play and about the director. I think it's gonna be a great opportunity to investigate the world of London in the early 80's, in which the play is set. I think this year promises to be pretty awesome in the way of performances and events here at the school.
Everything gets started in September...whoo-hoo! Let's start this year off with a BANG!
