AuditionCraft for Film & TV is a "how to" manual, using guidelines that you can follow in preparing for an on-camera audition.

Spiral-bound for easy handling, AuditionCraft for Film & TV has frequently been called the most practical, comprehensive and "user friendly" book of it's kind on the market!
