NEO Audition & Recording Plans
Audition dates: two 1 hour sessions near end of June
How conducted:
- @ MIT AV site (why? Easier for them to record, best to test under actual conditions, more comfortable. Can turn into positive for those who've never been there.)
- 5-10 minutes per audition candidate.
- Give sample script (14 pt, double spaced), about 1 minute in duration to those who sign up for the audition.
- @ audition, have similar document, same reading complexity, different subject, 30 second duration.
- MIT gift cards will be given to those who audition and who are selected
- MIT A/V staff will provide guidance on the selection process
Recording:
- Dates: mid July, two half day sessions. (We are offering two datesto accommodate peoples'schedules)
- 2-4 HR staff members will perform the scripts
- Writing resources will be present to perform any last minute rewrites.
