How to make your ABC takes stand out!

The ABC's of ABC's

So today I want to talk to you about that alternate take that second take that can really make the difference.


So a lot of times when we're auditioning, we'll be asked to do more than one take. And we want to make sure that when we do more than one take, and we give a second take, that is completely different than the first. And sometimes you'll be asked to do an ABC take when you're being live directed. And so what does that mean? Well, that means three completely different takes.


Often, directors ask for alternate takes, but are you able to make the best of that opportunity? Anne shares her technique to make your ABC takes amazing!
