PODCAST
“ Auditioning: What To Do and What Not
To Do ”
Karen Copeland interview with Lucas Alifano
Show
Details (Easter Sunday, March 27th, 2005)
I've
been down and out for the week but the weekly podcast has been
saved by Karen Copeland, host of The Voice of Experience! She graciously
interviewed actor Lucas Alifano about audition strategies. MFA
student at the National Conservatory, Alifano has a perfect 100%
record for being cast in the roles for which he auditions. He shares
his thoughts on why he is (knock on wood) generally successful!
Next
week, I hope to be back on the mend. I was scheduled to interview
festival programmer Israel Ehrisman this
week (but just couldn't get up enough steam to do it). I've also
got another interview regarding Sundance from the teen
perspective that's almost ready. The biggest challenge
to getting the podcasts ready and keeping the blog updated (besides
just getting healthy again) is that the annual MCC Student Art
Show goes up this week. It's an incredible amount of work but it's
tremendously valuable for the students, so we keep putting it on.
We'll have to see what next weekend brings.
Regardless, my sincere thanks to Karen and Lucas for
generating some great audio material for this week!
