ActressDrew,
Great job! It was so good. Tender and subtle, spiking the anger and then the fear behind potentially losing the job. Then the rehab memories were very real and vulnerable. Your transitions were solid, especially from yelling to 'can't go back'. The only thing to improve (and I am really stretching to find something) you might have spiked (looked at) the camera once when looking away from your reader and maybe use slightly less head room above your head. (See - I had to search for something. You're really good.) I also liked that you took time with transitions. Very well done.

ActressMIC DROP!!! This was an absolutely outstanding performance! You are incredibly talented, and it is so clear that you understood this character inside and out. Your delivery was completely captivating—I honestly didn't want it to end and was left wishing I could keep watching to see what happens next! Keep up the phenomenal work, you have something truly special!
