Unlocking Your Charisma: The Ultimate Secret to Nailing Your Audition
As an actor, your skills in acting and performance are essential for success in the entertainment industry. However, there is one skill that is often overlooked and can be just as crucial to your success - your charisma. In fact, more than 60% of the factors that lead to callbacks or booking jobs has nothing to do with acting skill, but has everything to do with your likeability. This is where my upcoming online class, Charisma Counts, comes in.
Charisma Counts is a four-week class that teaches young actors how to develop and enhance their charisma. Hosted by Ingenuity Actors Studio, the class covers nine essential elements observed in charismatic people. It all starts with your audition slate - the first impression you make on casting directors. We'll teach you how to make a great first impression and show casting directors the best version of yourself.
As Wendy Alane Wright recommends, "This is an incredibly important class, because so many auditions are based on your personality, your essence in the room, and your ability to connect with other people. This is a skill that MUST be developed. Actors lose jobs all the time because of this."
The class is designed to help you be genuine and comfortable, making it easier for you to connect with casting directors and other actors. It also teaches you how to be memorable, so you stand out in a sea of auditions.
“We just finished this (Charisma Counts) class tonight and really enjoyed it. Corey gives exceedingly clear and detailed feedback on their “homework.” I’ve listened in a few times, ear outside the door, and it’s obvious that Corey walks that “teacher” tightrope superbly - always encouraging and supportive, but going to push you to always broaden your comfort zone. No cheap empty praise here either - your kid will want to earn it, and will earn it, and it will feel rewarding when that progress happens. Even if your child is already confident and outgoing, it will show them methods in optimizing those natural gifts” - Laura Nattinger
By being mindful of how you present yourself and dialing in your charisma, you can become a confident, prepared, relaxed, engaging, genuine, funny, interesting, friendly, and memorable actor - one that casting directors love to work with.
“My girls have been killing it on their auditions and getting lots of callbacks...I swear it is because of the Charisma class! They always learn a ton with you and are so much more confident,” Tasida Westerhaus
