I genuinely cannot watch this scene without thinking about this jenmish moment 😭
Like wdym Jensen read all the stage directions in an Aussie accent and gave Cas the most hilarious accent ever 🤣
Auditioning is a completely different performance than how you’d perform it when you get the job. Most actors don’t realize that.
What do I mean?
In an audition,
I only have 1 set up,
1 frame from the chest up.
On set you’ll have multiple set ups and multiple camera lens sizes.
So for example if I have to do a very explosive emotional scene for an audition I’m beholden to that one set up which is the chest up how casting likes it. BUT if I’m too big and too emotional for that frame size it might come off as melodramatic/Over-acting or I’m forcing it. So I have to do a little less.
Now on set during the master I can be as big and as ferocious as I want and then dial it down as the camera moves in closer.
The same goes if it has to be small and intimate scene,
I might have to project a bit more to convey that emotion in an audition where if it was on set that close up sees everything and I can be as small an intimate as I want.
So during these auditions you’re predominantly handcuffed to the size of the frame that casting wants.
I like to be subtle in auditions and sometimes that can look like you’re doing absolutely nothing and its not as engaging for the audition process. (You’re trying to get a job) So I amp it up 10-20%.
Again, where as on set I can be as small and subtle as I want and when they move in on your close up it sees the minutia of every detail that your face and eyes make.
(Also in an audition you’re acting with a friend or a family member who might not be an actor. No professional makeup or hair, bad lighting,
dog barking, cat meowing, fedex guy ringing your bell,etc etc)
So to recap…
AUDITIONING SUCKS!🤦🏻♂️
