Something helpful to do is to read lines out of a movie! For example, pretend you are auditioning for the part of Mitchie on Camp Rock.
Watch Camp Rock and then think about a part in the movie in which Mitchie acts really well and where she has more than one line.
Repeat her lines the way she did it.
Do this in front of a mirror so you can see your facial expressions
- this really helps! -
Step 2: Make sure you have support.
Make sure your family and your friends support you 100% on this.
