GAP Program Auditions Perth

Starting the GAP Program does not begin with an audition.

Instead, it begins with a conversation.

The process is designed to give you clarity, not pressure. As a result, you can take your first step without feeling overwhelmed.

Step 1: Eligibility Interview

The first step is an eligibility interview.

This is not a performance. Instead, it is a professional conversation about:

your goals
your experience
where you feel stuck
what you want from acting

Because of this, you do not need to prepare anything complicated.

👉 Book your interview below by completing the form.

Step 2: Invitation to Audition

After your interview, we will guide you toward your next step.

If the GAP Program is a strong fit, you will be invited to audition. However, not everyone is asked to audition immediately. This ensures that you are moving forward at the right time.

Step 3: Preparing Your Audition (Self-Test)

If you are invited to audition, you will complete a self-test audition.

You will also be assigned an audition specialist, who will guide you through the process and help you prepare your strongest work.

Step 3: Supported Audition

What You Need to Prepare

Your audition consists of three parts:

🎬 A Film Scene (Self-Test)

Choose a scene from a film that includes another character
The other character should be read off-camera by another person
Ensure the reader is clearly audible
Choose material that suits your age range and emotional connection

🎥 2. Framing and Performance Notes

Camera should frame you from head to waist
You may sit or stand, depending on the scene
Do not restrict your performance because of the camera
Make strong, committed choices

🎤 3. Introduction (Full Body Shot)

At the start of your video, include a short introduction:

your full name
your age
where you are from

This should be filmed as a full-body shot (head to foot).

🗣 4. Personal Statement (2 minutes)

Include a short personal statement covering:

your acting or performance background
your experience so far
why you want to train in the GAP Program

What We Look For

We are not looking for perfection.

Instead, we are looking for:

honesty in your performance
willingness to take direction
commitment to the work
potential for growth

Many actors come in after time away from acting. That is completely fine.

Support Through the Process

You will not be doing this alone.

Your audition specialist will:

help you choose appropriate material
guide your preparation
introduce you to the self-testing process used in the industry

As a result, you gain experience that is directly relevant to professional acting work.

What Happens After

After submitting your audition, you will receive clear guidance.

This may include:

an offer to join the GAP Program
a recommendation for another step
or advice on what to develop next

The goal is always clarity.
