Self Tape Audition:
Dress as you would to show your particular style. We want to get an idea of how you represent yourself and what makes you feel great.

Directly to camera with good lighting and clean background/wall.

1) Frame-mid waist up and say your name (eg: Hi, I’m Katie O’Grady)

2) Give us a quick background of who you are, grade, and the area you live (eg: in the city Portland, suburbs of Medford, or in Hood River. NO ADDRESSES PLEASE!) We just want to get a variety of kids/teens across OR.

Please pick 1-2 of the topics listed and share 30s-1m of your opinion on video. ALL OPINIONS CONSIDERED.

*Be honest and open. We want to hear kids’ viewpoints, not what they think anyone wants to hear or what their parents want them to say. This is a groundbreaking conversation amongst kids/teens about the climate of THEIR world. We are excited to hear YOU share your heart. Be vulnerable, not “actory”. We understand the subject may be hard, do your best. Please only apply if you feel comfortable and ready to talk openly about 1-2 of these subjects.
