[quote=Anonymous]A PP asked about passion. As an arts teachers at a conservatory (all arts school wok the same way) let me clarify. Passion does not mean not talent, or less. Passion means if there is choice between equally talented applicants, the kid who cares gets the nod. Cares mean you read the material you were asked to read. Or if someone asks about a favorite book or author or film, you have an opinion because you pay attention. It means your portfolio contains more than you were asked to bring because you love doing whatever the thing is. No amount of training can substitute for hustle. In that way arts audition are like any other job interview. Show some initiative and you've probably got a better hook over the perfectly crafted resume. [/quote]
