The Golden Rules of Auditioning
1. Always know what you are auditioning for.
2. Arrive thirty minutes prior to the audition time; this will allow ample time to check in and warm up, check out your competition.
3. Bring at least 2 photos and resumes. Photos should reflect current physical likeness (should always be updated!)
4. Do not chew gum ( all directors hate it)
5. When attending callbacks, always wear the same attire worn at audition. Try to do everything you did the first time because it has already worked during the first audition.
6. Be confident, smile, always have a positive attitude
7. Act excited about everything you asked to do.

Other Tips
Also, the moments in which you enter and leave and audition are very valuable. When you enter, appear confident and outgoing. When you leave, act like you just did the best audition of your life. Even doing the smallest things give you a better apeal.

Don't Give Up
Try not to think about the audition after it happened. There is a very good chance you will not get the part, but don't be discouraged. Try again! It may take 100 auditions, or it may take 1. Either way, don't give up on your dream.
