The Agent interview

when auditioning for an agent you will want to have memorized  3 monologues: A contemporary monologue, A classical monologue and depending on what direction you want to go in acting a comedic monologue these are also good to have because it can get the agent laughing and ease tension in the room. So what should I wear? I read recently that 1 in 4 people look good in black so it’s a good idea to wear colors that compliment your skin tone, hair, eye color, etc... I’ve read any color blue is good also don’t overdress, dress your age but also don’t dress sloppy. I have also read many different views on wear to look when reading your monologue, The whole idea when reading your monologue is for the agent to see how you express and read your monologue with facial expressions therefore you wouldn’t want to be reading sideways but neither would you want to be looking directly at the agent making him or even you uncomfortable when reading so let’s say it’s best to read toward the agent but look above his/her head to whatever is behind them and focus on that. Sometimes agents will ask the question and say so tell me a little about what’s happening in your life. This will catch some actors off guard and not know what to say so it’s a good idea to have a story already prepared focusing on how you’re improving your craft of acting and never talk about negative stuff happening in your life.
