Classes / Self-tape audition classes in Los Angeles
Arlo lists 28 schools for self-tape audition classes in Los Angeles, with 5 current classes from 4 schools. 3 listings publish a price or rate; the billing basis can differ by school.
Self-tape classes teach how to record an audition at home: framing, lighting, sound, working with a reader, slating, and following casting instructions. Most also train actors to make specific choices quickly from new sides.
They suit any actor who auditions by video, which now includes most first-round auditions for film, television, and commercials.
In Los Angeles, self-tape training is offered as single workshops, short courses of a few weeks, or ongoing audition classes where students tape new sides every week. A single workshop usually costs much less than a month of classes, and ongoing classes commonly fall around $200 to $450 per month.
Before you enroll, ask whether you tape in class or at home, whether you get written or recorded notes on each tape, and what equipment the class expects you to own.
