ActressReally excellent work! Your pacing felt entirely organic, and your reactions were beautifully timed—nothing felt forced or rehearsed. I was actively looking for a moment to offer some constructive feedback or fine-tuning, but your instincts were so sharp that there's absolutely nothing to fix. You brought great life to the character!
July 2026Great job! I love the reactions to his dialogue.

ActressNice tape Christine.
I thought your look was perfect.
I feel like half of the work in this scene was posturing and facial expressions and you were flawless in that arena!
Thw choice to take out your phone to text someone was perfect. Your very talented and did a great job!

Actorgood job! lighting, sound, and framing was good. nice work maintaining eyeline. I liked your reactions when Rick and Waitress was having their conversation. Picking up your phone was a great choice of trying to escape being there. I also liked the laugh at the last line.
Jackie Renfro
ActressI could really see you listening and reacting to what they were saying. This was so natural! Great job! P.S. your voice reminds me of Elle Fanning!
Suzanne Jennings
ActressLoved your authenticity and ease in the frame.... I only have one thing, iron your backdrop. It was a little distracting. I know it's nit-picky, but I'd hate for a CD to get distracted from one of your performances. Especially if it's as good as this one! Great job.

ActorReally nice work, Christine. 2 small suggestions that will improve self taps: Put your backdrop in a gentle cycle in your dryer or use a hair dryer to remove as many wrinkles as possible. Creases and wrinkles are distracting. Also try to pull the backdrop tighter to the sides to remove the 'billowing', make it look as smooth as possible so the viewer's eye doesn't register the backdrop much at all. I've found a brand called 'Kate' backdrops on Amazon that work well but others will, too. Consider using a wireless or other external mic as the room tone is a bit loud. Well done!
