Recent Happenings

So, I have some news. I found out that I did not make A Christmas Carol. In a way, I'm not upset about it. Mainly because, if I were to make it, I planned on turning it down anyways. I have a lot of things that I want to do around the time of A Christmas Carol, and now I guess I can do them! I want to audition for the fall school play, join the honors choir, and play girls' fall tennis. So in a way, I'm relieved!

For the summer, I'm still in the process of rehearsals for Guys and Dolls Jr. and "Songs that Go Like This" (the cabaret) So all is good!

One thing I like to mention is my youtube account (www.youtube.com/MsBroadwayBrunette) It's fairly new, and therefore does not have a lot of viewers!

When I first started musical theatre, I knew absolutely nothing about it! (which I feel is only natural) With help from musicaltheatreaudition.com (which I sadly miss) I gained knowledge, but there were some questions that I wanted to learn more about. So, I would search, none other than youtube! And when it came to musical theatre tutorials/questions on youtube, there are slim to none. So I always had the idea of answering common questions relating to musical theatre! But- I also wanted to sing. And so I thought, sing first and when your videos gain more viewers, make the videos that give advice!

You guys read in a video I put up the other day, that I'm having technical issues. When I record myself singing I use a Nikon digital camera. It's great with taking pictures- but as for videos where there's singing, not so much. The camera has awful sound quality, and muffles my voice. So I'm in the process of finding equipment. I have been asking youtubers what they use, and such. So within a couple months I should have the proper recording system. But as for now, I'm going to take this singing break to post those videos I mentioned prior! Some of my ideas are:

Musical Reviews
Advice for those of you with questions (musically related)
Tutorials (stage make-up, stage hair)
Common questions for starters (what to wear to an audition, how to overcome nerves, proper etiquette, gaining expierence and expanding repertoire, etc.)
and fun character montage videos (which I just posted one today, so check it out!)

But I need help from you, the viewers! I'd like to hear lots of requests! So check my youtube out, and spread the word to a friend! I also want to give a big thanks you to those of you who have been following my blog and my youtube channel from the beginning, I really appreciate your support and the feedback you have been giving me!
