A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
试镜
Audition
I'd say you have to be really committed to the field, show up for every audition and to be aware that very few make it in this field.
我想说的是，你必须对这个领域非常投入，每次试镜都要到场，并且要意识到在这个领域里成功的人非常少。
As an actor, there's very little you can do if people don't want to see you. Just getting yourself into the room to audition is tough.
作为一名演员，如果人们不想看到你，你几乎无能为力。仅仅是让自己进入面试室就很困难。
My dad became a soap opera actor, and I was an extra in a skating rink scene on the soap. I didn't audition. It was nepotism all the way.
我爸爸成了一名肥皂剧演员，而我则是肥皂剧中溜冰场的临时演员。我没有试镜。一直都是裙带关系。
Even before my audition, there were several pages missing from my script because those bits were so unbelievably secret not even I was allowed to see them.
甚至在我试镜之前，我的剧本就少了几页，因为那些片段是如此难以置信的秘密，甚至连我都不能看。
I did auditions at a club called the Comedy Connection. They wanted nothing to do with me. But one night they were doing a night of all women comics, and they invited me to do that.
我在一个叫喜剧联谊会的俱乐部试镜。他们不想和我有任何关系。但有一天晚上，他们举办了一个全是女性漫画的晚会，他们邀请我参加。
At this point in my career, I don't have to deal with audition rejections. So I get my rejection from other things. My children can make me feel rejected. They can humble you pretty quick.
在我职业生涯的这个阶段，我不需要处理试镜的拒绝。所以我从其他事情中得到了拒绝。我的孩子会让我感到被排斥。他们能很快让你变得谦逊。
I've not gotten so much stuff because I improvise in an audition, but I always feel like, if that's the case, the reason is because it wouldn't have worked out anyway with us working together.
我没有得到那么多东西，因为我在试镜时即兴发挥，但我总是觉得，如果是这样的话，原因是如果我们一起工作，无论如何都不会成功。
Even when I was little and going on auditions, it was clear who was there because they wanted to be there, and who was there because their stage parents were making them be there. There was a major difference.
甚至当我还小的时候，去试镜的时候，我就很清楚谁在那里，因为他们想去，谁在那里，因为他们的舞台父母让他们去。这是一个很大的不同。
And I was victim to that very early in my career, where I would go into auditions, and I'd be wearing a big T shirt, a big baggy T shirt and loose jeans. You know, to try and show people that there was more to me than just that.
在我职业生涯的早期，我就是这种情况的受害者，那时我要去试镜，我要穿一件大大的T恤，一件宽大的T恤和宽松的牛仔裤。你知道，试着让人们知道我不仅仅是那样。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
I have had so many bad auditions.
我的试镜太糟糕了。
I was really nervous. Even when I left the audition I was nervous.
我真的很紧张。甚至当我离开试镜时，我也很紧张。
When I started auditioning, I'd take any audition I could get. The more dramatic ones didn't go as well as the comedic.
当我开始试镜的时候，我会参加任何我能得到的试镜。戏剧效果不如喜剧效果好。
Any types of auditions will be posted in trade magazines.
任何类型的试镜都将刊登在行业杂志上。
Certainly, when I walk into an audition, a lot of people already know who I am.
当然，当我去试镜的时候，很多人已经知道我是谁了。
I've had heartbreaking auditions where they don't even look at you. You're out before you're in.
我有过令人心碎的试镜，他们甚至都不看你一眼。你进来之前就出去了。
