A Police Procedural Audition

A Police Procedural Audition

This week’s episode is an excerpt of a coaching Milton did with JP for a SWAT audition. You’ll notice that the difference here between teaching and coaching. Teaching demands that the actors themselves comes up with the choices and tools they’ll use for that specific material. Whereas coaching requires less independence because the coach gives it to you. It’s important to take note of what you’re function is in the grand scheme of the episode. If you’re a “plot point” there to further the storyline, you don’t want to build too much, or else you risk stealing focus. “What you really want to do,” Milton says, “is look at the plot that is there, and figure out what you need to both earn the plot, and make it more interesting.”
