AUDITION OPPORTUNITY FOR LDS YOUTH

PLEASE READ THE BELOW INFO VERY CAREFULLY!!

Project: A Tour of Temple Square -- for Youth!

LDS Casting is looking for an LDS Youth, Male or Female ages 16-19, to be their Tour Guide in a new DVD produced by the LDS Church: A Tour of Temple Square -- for Youth! 

If chosen, you will take viewers on a fun and exciting behind-the-scenes tour of the Conference Center, Tabernacle, Welfare Square, and more!

This project is PAID.

To AUDITION, please complete a VIDEO audition which includes the following:

(1) Introduce yourself (full name and that you are represented by the Craze Agency) on camera and make it part of the tour. 

(2) Take them on a brief tour of your home, a friend’s house, or another favorite place.

(3) Introduce them to your friends or your family, or someone else interesting who is there. Perhaps conduct a brief interview with them.

The purpose of this is to see how you interact with a “camera” audience.  Please play directly to camera, right into the lens, and engage the invisible audience behind the camera in what you have to say and show.

Take about 3 minutes total time for this.  Please wear nice casual, modest clothing.

Please also include:

(4) A completed Talent Release Form (Craze Agency will email you this form if you are interested)

(5) A headshot or photograph of yourself (if e-mailing, “jpg” or “bmp” files are preferred) and your Resume.

(6) Your Phone Number(s) and E-mail Address;

(7) Your Ward, Stake, and Bishop’s Name.

NOTE:  All applicants must be clearable by their current bishop as being temple-worthy.

Submissions must be postmarked by Monday, June 22, 2009.

 You may MAIL your DVD (or VHS) to:

            LDS Motion Picture Studio

            ATTN:  TST for Youth

            300 West 2230 North

            Provo, UT 84604

Or you may E-MAIL an electronic file of your audition to AVDcasting@LDSchurch.org.  Beware!  Video files tend to be over-large for e-mailing purposes. You may need to upload your video to a “file-send” site and e-mail the link, along with your login and password to view it. www.senduit.com works very well.

Again, please follow the instructions in this e-mail carefully.

-          Submissions which cannot be viewed due to technical difficulties (corrupt files or scratched media, for example) will not be considered.

-          Submissions without current contact information attached will also not be considered.  (As they have no way to contact you.)

FAQ’s:

WHEN will it shoot?

             Early July, 2009.

WHERE will it shoot?

             Temple Square. 

If I’ve already filled out a Talent Data Sheet, do I need to do it again?

 Yes, please.

 SUGGESTIONS:

 We recommend applicants NOT wait until the last minute to submit an audition. (What if you have trouble with the file?  What if the DVD is corrupt?  What if it gets lost in the mail?  Etc.)

 Please make sure your SOUND and LIGHTING are such that they can CLEARLY see and hear you.
