HOW TO Slate or Ident

This is a very short intro to a Casting Director. Camera/phone should NOT be hand held or move about.Rest it on a steady surface and film at eye-level in landscape mode!! When asked to tape a separate slate (or ident) along with your audition self-tape, the Casting Director generally wants a very short video, shot in landscape mode, consisting of: A close-up, head and shoulders, eye-level frame of performer(s), stating*: “Hi, my name is Freda BloggsMy agent is TV TwinsI’m 12 years old and 5ft 6 from Newcastle but live in LondonThis is my identical twin sister, First Name…” “I’ve been in one supermarket commercial in the last 3 years and I’m fully available” See also this useful advice – https://www.backstage.com/uk/magazine/article/what-is-an-ident-auditions-76755
