Auditions for Drama Institutions...

Hi Guys!!

I'm sorry to see that u took my message so seriously, because I was a bit drunk when I wrote it and I was just messing around.
I am a acting student myself and there is nothing I would appreciate more than a good acting teacher, especially those areas that require hard and continuous work, rather than talent, such as voice and movement.
But however, I got reasons to believe that no matter how capable an auditioning jury is, the judgement is very much likely going to be subjective and relative when a huge number of people audition, because it is almost certain that a much larger number of people than those who win are as talented as them and for many talented people it can be fatal.
I came to Australia 2 years ago from Europe, and I don't know if u are aware of the fact that European show business(mostly cinema) is conquered by amateurs, and I'm pretty sure u recognize the fact that Europe still remains the substance of World Art in general and the place where most of what we call "excellence" generates. And do u know why this happens?! Because the "myths" in Europe are not as strong as here, speaking of which, NIDA is obviously one of them. No wonder why theatre & film in this country is led by some of the crappiest actors in the planet, because they have simply a piece of paper from NIDA or VCA, that is in fact worth heaps more than the talent of many other actors that never get the chance to do something decent.

Take Care
