BA (Hons) Performing Arts auditions
Congratulations, you have been selected to audition for a place on our BA (Hons) Performing Arts course.
What will be required
You are required to prepare and film two practical tasks and send to us as an audition clip. Further information about the tasks is provided within the pre-interview form, which you will need to complete and submit to the Applicant Portal in the first instance.
What do you need for the audition film?
- You can record your clip using a smartphone camera (i.e. iPhone, Samsung, Huawei, etc.). You do not need a professional grade camera.
- When recording your clip, try to use a room that has privacy, some space to move and very little or no background noise.
- If possible, position your equipment in front of a plain wall and place it so that the main light source comes from behind the camera and that the image clearly shows your head, shoulders and torso.
- Do not stand too far away from the camera or in front of a window as this will create a silhouette and we may find it difficult to see you.
- If you are using a smartphone, to maintain a steady image, it should ideally sit on a tripod (or similar device) or ensure it is on a stable surface where it cannot move.
- If you are filming your submission in one continuous take, leave a brief pause between the end of your first task and the beginning of the second.
What we are looking for
- Applicants who have an open mind and are curious to learn and study
- Applicants who are able to follow instructions and respond to advice and feedback offered.
- A mature and professional approach.
- Able to collaborate creatively and constructively with performers from a range of disciplines and backgrounds.
What happens after you submit your audition video?
- You will be contacted by the Admissions Tutor via email to arrange an online interview, where we will discuss your video in-depth and answer any questions you may have about the course.
- We will then notify you of the outcome through your UCAS Track or we will send you an email with our decision. If you receive a place at UEL you will be required to accept/decline your place as per UCAS deadlines/the deadline in your email.
We look forward to meeting you soon.
