Hey everyone! Hope the summer is treating all of you well! While you anxiously anticipate your first year at Boston University you might decide to take a chance at auditioning to be a part of our school\u2019s webseries COMlife (yay!). Being a part of the show is great and I wanted to give you guys some insider tips on the audition video process!<\/p>\n
1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Be creative<\/strong><\/p>\n In your video, it\u2019s important to stand out and talk about (or show the producers) what makes you different. The people casting the series watch a ton of videos and if you are creative (ie. not just stand in front of your video camera) you\u2019ll make a big impression.<\/p>\n 2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Have fun<\/strong><\/p>\n I know this should go without saying but have fun in your video! The concept of the series is to show current\/prospective students the fun and exciting life of a BU COM student. If you don\u2019t look like you\u2019re enjoying making the video, it\u2019s hard to believe you\u2019ll enjoy being a part of the series.<\/p>\n 3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Tell your story.<\/strong><\/p>\n What makes you, you? Tell us who you are by making yourself relateable to others. For instance, I was very involved in basketball in highschool so I talked about myself as an athlete and even recorded myself shooting around.<\/p>\n 4.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Be yourself<\/strong><\/p>\n I know this is the most clich\u00e9\u2019, but it\u2019s so true. In your audition video act like your normal, everyday, awesome self and everything will work out for the best!<\/p>\n Quick tip: <\/strong><\/em>Keep your audition video close to the allotted time. You can get your point across without spending 20 minutes doing so.<\/p>\n Good luck to everyone auditioning and if you have any last minute questions feel free to email me, alexa111@bu.edu<\/a>.<\/p>\n Have a great rest of the summer!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hey everyone!
