DESCRIPTION
If you are wondering what Casting Directors are looking for in a Video Audition, or how to go about preparing, setting up, lighting, shooting, editing, and submitting a video audition - then this workshop is for you. Join Women in Film & Television Houston for an information-packed day with these guest presenters:
RYAN GLORIOSO, CSA, Glorioso Casting,
 Shreveport, Louisiana - Ryan will be letting us in on what casting directors are looking for in video auditions submissions.
About Ryan Glorioso, CSA: After graduating with a BA in Theatre from Louisiana's Northwestern State University in 1996, Ryan relocated to Los Angeles where he worked as an actor for eight years. Working as an actor led Ryan to his future in casting. "My experiences in Los Angeles gave me a broad understanding of the acting profession. I understand what an actor goes through because I was there myself for years." Ryan Glorioso established his career in casting and became a member of the Casting Society of America in Louisiana's blooming film market. Just three years after establishing his company, Glorioso Casting, Ryan stands as a constant and respected member of Louisiana's film community. Some projects recently cast locally by Glorioso Casting include: THE EXPENDABLES. BUTTER, SUPER, STRAW DOGS, LEAVES OF GRASS, and WONDERFUL WORLD. Two of Ryan's films premiered at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival. THE TAQWACORES and SKATELAND. Both films were also official selections at 2010 SXSW Film Festival.
 ALYSSIA DUJMOVICH, Acting Coach, will lead us through the preparing for an audition and the techniques required to win the role! She will be demonstrating it all with the cooperation of one of her acting students.
About Alyssia Dujmovich: The word from Page Parkes Talent is that Dujmovich is a great coach who regularly tapes actors for major casting submissions! You might recognize her as "Jilly" from the movie LEAVES OF GRASS (2009) starring Edward Norton and Susan Sarandon, or "Blair" in SPIRIT CAMP (2009). Dujmovich holds a BA in Acting from University of Texas and a BS in Public Relations. She also studied with Bob Luke Studios and Weist Barron in New York.
 CLINT MILBY, Director of Marketing for iKAN, will help us understand the various options for lighting and cameras and actually set up a shoot right in the room to simulate what you can do on your own. He will explore using everything from an iPhone, Flip camera, and basic video equipment to the newer HDSLR. About Clint Milby: When Clint's father gave him a video camera as a graduation present, he immediately started producing short films, something he still does today. After graduation from Baylor University, where he majored in Writing for Cinema, Milby moved to Los Angeles where he worked at Live Entertainment and The Academy of Television Arts & Sciences. He also served as an executive Assistant to writer/producers and development executives for six years at Warner Bros. Milby has completed several screenplays including the narrative "7th Angel," an account of the Waco tragedy, and received top honors in the Rob Zombie Horror Movie Competition for his short Drain U. Clint returned to Texas in 2005. In 2009, he became fascinated with HDSLRs and got a 7D of his own to join the revolution. Beyond making several shorts and commercials using his 7D, he became a careful student of how to get the best video possible from these remarkable cameras. IIn 2010, Clint started a news Web site, HDSLRShooter.com and has extended this blog to Pro Video oalition.
 PAT SKILES, Owner/Agent, A Plus Actors of Texas, www.aplusactors.com, will be on hand to help us understand the various different methods of submitting a video audition from You Send It to uploading to a Web site and beyond.About A Plus Actors of Texas: A Plus Actors is a Houston-based agency representing talent for film and television, including spokespersons, day players, voice-over talent, corporate video and film/TV narrators, TV and radio station promo voices, live industrial/trade show, and commercial print talent.
