What should I wear to the audition?
Dress in neat, casual, age-approriate clothes- nothing dressy, nothing sexy! Keep your appearance fresh and clean. If you wear makeup, keep it minimal or none at all! We like to see your hair natural, too! If it’s curly, wear it curly. If it’s straight, wear it straight. This will give us our best idea of what you really look like!
TIPS FOR PARENTS:
Is my child ready to audition?
Your child must be at least 8 years old. *Occasionally, Halo will accept precocious 5-7 year-olds. Most importantly, your child or teen must want to perform!
You will know if your child is meant for Show Business in early childhood. Child Performers love to be in front of camera; they “mimic” performers on TV; they speak easily to strangers; they are smart and are usually high achievers. Some are beautiful. Some are “characters!” The most important attribute for child models or actors is personality!
Are auditions safe?
That’s a smart question to ask! Before you audition for anyone in the Talent Industry (a photographer, casting director, or an agency like Halo), you need to know who they are! Check out their history, reputation, and success stories. At Halo, we also believe that the family of a new actors, singer, dancer, or model needs to be involved every step of the way!
