You
finally get that big audition on that huge movie with that amazing
director and you get so nervous that you can’t stop talking or you think
you’ll try making jokes but you’re not necessarily funny or you forget
to breathe as you prattle on and on about the parking and the traffic
and…
Look, learn to do whatever you
need to do to center yourself before an audition. Breathing exercises,
splashing cold water on your face, meditation, listening to music, etc. I
even know one actor that does yoga poses in the waiting room – one time
I went to get him and he was in a headstand, but hey, if that works for
him, great! Learn to find something that helps you control any possible
nervous verbal diarrhea that might come pouring out of your mouth. I
swear you’ll thank me for it when you finally audition for that amazing
dream director and you don’t decide to tell him you, a beautiful woman,
practically have a penis. (see previous post)
