In the packet it says "contestants will walk the runway". Please make sure you go through the packet of info and read all the blogs for more details regarding each individual showcasing event. All modeling events, other than the TV Beauty Event will be in the main ballroom. You will leave the Swan Ballroom Convention area for any of the events. Hope that helps :) Hi Kristen,

You can just use headshots. And yes, Level 2 actors only do the Monologue and TV Talent Commercial events. I want to note to other parents who read this blog and were asking about the total number of photo duplications. You should bring 75 - 100 headshots and resumes and/or zed cards. I deleted the comment from an older posting that said 30 - 40 because our event is twice the size of the last and it has caused confusion. Thanks!

I know models need Zed cards, but do the level 2 actors need them also? And am I correct that level 2 actors do not need to memorize the scene. Only monologue and commercial? Thank you.

So I would suggest that you go outside with a colorful shirt (dark blue or deep green) and take more photos of Gregory with that same feel. The shot should be from the mid chest and up and the background could be a brick wall or stone backdrop. You don't want anything distracting in the background and natural light is really recommended versus inside a home. Hi Janine,

We recommend using a monologue that is from a published work, unless they are a strong writer and have been working with an acting coach on an original piece. The monologue books we suggested in the monologue section of this blog are a good place to start. The monologue needs to be 60 secs or less. The topic needs to be relevant to her age and family friendly. She should find something that would be realistic for her type of personality. For an example, if she is a funny, bubbly girl, she should find a funny, quirky monologue and not something dark and dramatic. You don’t need to apologize.
