Articles from Mark Brandon's best selling book, "Winning Auditions"
Mark Brandon, a native Californian, who now makes his home in Vancouver, Canada, has worked as an actor, casting director, and producer. He presently writes for Canadian television
and in addition to running workshops that assist actors in making the transition from stage to film, Brandon has written the best selling book, Winning Auditions - 101 Strategies
for Actors.
His book, Winning Auditions - 101 Strategies for Actors, isn't about methods. It's not another how-to book. Winning Auditions is a revelation: a shared
collection of actors' trade secrets -- tricks of the trade divulged by professionals in an experimental workshop that lasted nearly a year.
In his book, you will discover what actually sells you more than talent. You will find out how powerful body language can be, and even how influential color is in the audition room.
You will learn what keeps a photo on a casting director's desk and what keeps a casting director on your side. In short, you will have 101 innovative ways to get what you have
always wanted: more of the parts you deserve.
