The TAKE 2 class is for models or actors with previous industry experience or adults who have previously taken a course at Halo. Â This course is heavily focused on self-taping (electronic auditions) and students will receive the practice takes via Airdrop as well as critiques of auditions filmed during each class. This class also includes a practice head shot session.
This class equips actors and models with audition techniques to improve chances of gaining attention from casting directors. Â Emphasis is placed on delving deeper into the audition process, including on-camera auditions for both speaking and non-speaking roles. Â Our agency books a lot of principal roles, principal non-speaking roles and a lot of commercial print. Â So, this course is perfect for an actor already signed with the Halo Agency or someone who has relocated and looking for a brusher-upper!
