ActressGood job! I enjoyed your performance!
Mark Miertschin
ActorGood job Marcus! Interesting that you started out on the chair. Nice framing of the shot even when you stood up. I did get a glare from your ring light right in the middle of your eye. If at all possible try and raise the ring light up so the viewer can see your eyes and not the glare. Nice work.

ActressDecent performance, I'd just suggest working on your "moment before." What's happening right before you say your first line? If you can give us something extra, a movement or a reaction, that would help it be more believable :)

ActressMarcus,
Well done. You had some good deliveries. Did you have the hiccups though? That was slightly distracting. Good emotional transitions.
Good job.

ActorGreat work Marcus! The technical stuff was strong. Your character and the relationship were clear.
Some thoughts - You handled the chair at the beginning well, but you may consider scrapping it and just stand throughout. Might add some pacing or movement with your frustration. You're about to lose your job - how does that really make you feel and how will it impact your career? The hiccups were a little distracting. Sorry you had to manage those!
Nice job!
Susan Willis
ActressNice work. One thing - I encourage you to try to not maintain complete eye contact with your reader. In real life we drift away occasionally as opposed to staring at them the whole conversation. Especially this character. He's cocky but then put in his place. allow for some human- ness and vulnerability to show in your whole body. Even if it means looking away in moments.
Alex Randall
ActorYour performance was grounded and passionate. Your stillness delivered your message. Nice work.
Paula Rafferty
ActressNice job! He was a little arrogant at first, I liked that, he was believable! And I believed he thought he was in control of handling his job and future-until, he realized he wasn't. Nice reading.
