"Hi, on behalf of expertvillage.com I'm Lori Wyman from Lori Wyman Casting in North Miami Beach, Florida and today we're going to talk to you about to prepare for on camera auditions. When you are preparing for your audition, you want to make sure that you look like the particular character. One of the ways that you can do that is by makeup. Now, even if you're a man, you're sitting there thinking, wow what does this have to with me, it could have a lot to do with you. i know a lot of men who might put a lot of base on their face, to possibly cover blemishes or just to get the shine off your face. Women, mascara, maybe a little lip gloss, but make sure it is in keeping with the particular character you are auditioning for. If your character was suppose to have been dragged out of bed in the middle of the night and you're being brought down to your office because there's an emergency, you probably don't have a full face of makeup. So make sure you realize the character that you're auditioning for and you see how the makeup should be worn for that particular character."
