Audition Tips
Helpful Terminology

Casting call will be announce soon

Assalamualaikum and Hello Bruneians...

Does Brunei got talents? we certainly hope so. Actually we do, its just we know how hard it is to make it in Brunei. Some of the Bruneian talents we discovered are based outside Brunei surprisingly.

So watch this space. Application, FAQs and forms will be downloadable here. SOON!!

Helpful Terminology

CALL TIME - This is the time you are to report for work. You should be in the holding area at this time for check-in.

HOLDING AREA - This is where the extras report for work. Anytime you are not actually working on the set, you must be in the holding area. Please do not make it necessary for
the AD's to go looking for you when they might need you. You could miss your opportunity
in front of the camera.

BASE CAMP - This is where the cast and crew report for work. Basecamp is easily recognized (not in Brunei tho) by the massive trucks and trailers and equipment moving about. Please stay clear of this area.

THE SET or LOCATION - This is where that actual filming will be taking place.

BACKGROUND or EXTRAS or ATMOSPHERE - This is you! A background performer or extra does not speak lines alone. Extras can make crowd noises or be singing in a group, but cannot be scripted.

PANTOMIME or MIME - To act with only facial and bodily movements.

FEATURED EXTRA or SPECIAL EXTRA or SILENT BIT - May be used to describe an extra in a scene who is very recognizable on camera as a character or someone who is interacting directly with a primary actor, but still does not speak.

"QUIET!" - Means quiet. Whenever you are on the set there should be no talking. If you must talk to a production assistant or assistant director, please whisper and only if it is absolutely necessary.

"PICTURE'S UP!" or "STAND BY!" - Means everyone - even crew - must be absolutely quiet, we are about to roll.

"ROLLING!" - Means film is rolling; we are shooting.

"ACTION!" - This cue is usually for the primary actors or "stars" to begin the scene.

"BACKGROUND ACTION!" or sometimes, simplified to "BACKGROUND!" - This is the cue for the extras. Most of the time it will be called immediately before the actors get their "action" cue.

"CUT!" - We have stopped shooting. Wait where you are; where you ended the scene for further instructions.

"BACK TO ONE" or "FIRST POSITION" - The AD is now asking everyone to return to the point where they began the scene; their first position. We will be doing another take. Remember you should do exactly the same thing for each take unless an AD asks you specifically to change something.

"NEW DEAL" - We are ready to move on to another scene or set up. Wait for instructions. You will most likely be directed back to the holding area, but it could be that you need to change your wardrobe for another scene.

1st ASSISTANT DIRECTOR (AD) - The person running the set; keeping the crew, the actors, and the director on schedule. The 1st AD works closest to the director.

2nd ASSISTANT DIRECTOR (AD) - The person to set up the background in the scene and direct the extras. The 2nd AD also assists the 1st in scheduling, etc.

2nd 2nd ASSISTANT DIRECTOR (AD) –This person may also set background. The 2nd 2nd assists both the 1st and 2nd AD’s.

PRODUCTION ASSISTANT (PA) - The go-fers on the set. They work for the AD's.

Audition Tips for Bruneian Talents

A generic Audition Tips for Bruneian Talents eg; actors, actresses, models, singers, dancers, performance artists, musicians..etc..

On the phone with your Agent (skip this if you do not have an agent) but it is worthwhile to be prepared:
* WHO am I auditioning for? Casting Director? Director? Producer? Get names of contacts ahead of time, if possible.
* WHAT am I auditioning for?
Film? Is it a comedy or drama? Commercial? What is the product? (check conflicts)
* WHAT is my character?
Get written character description, if available.
* WHERE is the audition?
Always get address and directions even if you have auditioned for the casting person previously. Not only do offices move, but it is NOT uncommon for a callback to be in a different location than your initial audition.
* WHEN is the audition?
Day/Date/Time
* WHEN is the shoot or shoot dates?
Check your calendar. Do not accept an audition if you are not available for the shoot. It is unprofessional and not appreciated.
* ASK if sides (or copy for commercials) are available ahead of time. Also ask if the whole script is available. ARRANGE TO GET WHATEVER IS AVAILABLE TO YOU!
In the Audition Lobby:
* Arrive 10 minutes prior to your audition appointment, the earlier the better.
* Sign-in with the casting assistant - Remember that today's assistant could be
tomorrow's casting director. Act accordingly!
* Check for changes in sides or script or copy. ALWAYS!
* Check # of headshots/resumes needed. Always have, at least, 5 copies with you.
* STAPLE HEADSHOT & RESUME BACK-TO-BACK NOW - Resumes should also be the same exact size as the headshot.
* Check for change in Shoot Date(s) - If you have conflicts that cannot be changed, you should decline the audition.
* Also check about Callback Audition Dates. Ask here. DO NOT ASK IN THE AUDITION ROOM!
* Quietly wait for your appt. Be courteous of surroundings.

In the Casting Room:

* BRING HEADSHOTS/RESUMES IN - Have them out & ready to hand over (not tucked in a briefcase, notebook, envelope, etc.).
* Quick greeting - No physical contact (handshake, hug, etc.) unless you are
approached first.
* Keep questions simple & specific - Do not be afraid to ask, but ask only what is necessary for the read itself. Never ask vague "What are you looking for" questions and DO NOT ASK "LOBBY" QUESTIONS about callbacks, shoot dates, etc.
* Read facing the reader for film & into the camera for commercials. Ask if unclear.
* Read scene.
* If asked to read again, LISTEN to direction, ask questions if necessary, make
adjustment.
* Quick thank you and exit.

Post Audition:

* Sign out quietly, remaining courteous of actors waiting to be seen.
* Follow up questions or updates should be asked to your agent if you have one. Represented talent should NOT call the casting office directly. If you do not have an agent, it is acceptable for independents to check in with the assistant who set the audition appointment, but please be mindful of the busy office and limit the number of calls.

THANK YOU!

"STOP! ALLEN"

Synopsis:

The Dragon Syndicate is still at its best in its game. The Dragon Master at an old age
still has his grip on power except on his failing health. When the Dragon Son
realizes that power and everything that goes with it is useless without being able to
live – possibly forever, and indeed the criminal underworld took notice that this
becomes the syndicate’s new business which will catapult it into the future of world
dominance.

They only have one unexpected glitch to this perfect plan – Allen.
Allen is no police. He is no social or religious reformer either. He is not even
intelligent according to our standards. But once his fixation turned from his turtle pet
to Gigi, a woman syndicate member they crossed, the whole syndicate just couldn’t
help but say, “Stop!Allen”.
