TIPS:

• Be yourself - When the panel hear your audition they need to be able to feel you in the room with them and so be your authentic self.
   
• Use your time well - you have 60 seconds to share something with us, that is a lot more time than it may seem. We want to know what makes you unique. We are looking for a range and a mixture of entertainment and personality.
   
• Enjoy yourself - when you are having fun, we are having fun and so enjoy yourself and that will shine through.
   
• Talk directly into the microphone - this may sound obvious but make sure we can hear you. The recording does not have to be professional it just needs to be clear. See our recording tips below for more advice

Recording Tips:

• Know where the microphone is on your device and point that towards your mouth.
• Use a voice recorder on your phone or app and keep a note of where the file saves.
• Keep your device close to you when recording - a distance about the length of your hand (or 10-12cm) is a good guide. This will help reduce your background noise but is not too close to distort the sound.
• If you have one, use headphones with an inbuilt microphone.
• If possible record in spaces with low background noise, small spaces are better.
• Listen back to your recording and if you are not happy you can re-record
