actually,

I'm traveling to L.A. from Texas.

and for the person above,

you could probably audition for 3,

but the estimated time to audition would be about a minute.

Hey i was wondering this....

If your have confidence and crazy passion and show alot of emotion when u sing

But your not that really great at singing but you love singing

do u think Jyp will accept you?

I mean seriously think about.. think how g-soul got accepted.

And..

Do they expect you to be professional when you audition????

can we audition through email? like with the application and videos or clips of us singing/dancing/modeling/ect????

For more information on the email auditions, check the Auditioning in General Thread.

You know how it says that auditions start at 10am

But arent ppl gonna start signin up at that time?

Do we still need to come an hour before?

So then if we come lik at 12:30 ish we wont b able to audition?

They said that everyone has to be there at the start of the auditions, but I'm sure they'll except late comers. Just come as soon as you can.

auditions start at 12...where you get 10am from

but they said to be there a hour early, so be there at 11.

but it takes like 1 hour drive to flushing, so imma leave at 10am O.o

REMEMBER there are 2 auditions, New York and Los Angeles,

AND they start at diffferent times...

Let's not confuse anyone ^^

The one thing they told me was that they are looking for potential for the future.

Some pointers for memorizing your lyrics...

Before just trying to memorize all the words, read the lyrics and try to understand the story.

Understand why the chorus is the chorus and why the verses go in that specific order, etc.

Since you'll have a better idea of what the writer of the song was feeling when writing the song...

the "showing emotions" part will probably come naturally too.

There is no set number for the amount of people who make it to the second round

I don't think auditioning with a friend will hurt your chances.

If you are more comfortable auditioning with someone then go ahead and do it.

HOWEVER, I think that they suggest auditioning alone.

The NY auditions should be the same as the LA auditions

So, 10 at a time...

Wow the auditions for NY came by fast...

Well for everyone going to the NY audition GOOD LUCK!

Sing/dance/MC/VJ/model with all the passion you have =)

I wonder how many people are going to sing Y by Zhang Li Yin.

I'm way too lazy to change my song so last minute.

All I know is that it seems to be very popular amongst auditioners =p

Good luck everybody =))))))

From my "Auditioning in General" Thread:

Tips for Auditioning in General

(In no particular order)

1. Be Yourself!

2. Dress Appropriately in your video clips.. don't just roll out of bed and film it...

3. Smile :D

4. Know about the company you are auditioning for (i.e., their style of music, who their artists are, etc.)

5. Be Confident

6. PRACTICE makes PERFECT!

7. Project, don't make them have to struggle to hear you

8. Pick a song that fits your voice and style. Don't just pick a song because you like it, make sure you sound good singing it. Especially if the song is from a singer from that company.

9. Posture! Don't slouch in your videos!

10. Avoid singing songs with long instrumentals

11. Good Quality: mic, video etc

12. Sing everyday... it will keep your voice healthy and strong.. unless you are sick

13. Don't sing a song that might have been sung by a miilion other auditioners before you.. You don't want to be compared to anyone...

14. Be professional. When writing anything in the application forms don't write with slang... basically take the audition seriously...

15. Don't wear too much makeup in your photos. Make sure if you wear any makeup that it looks natural

16. Pick or sing a section of a song that has a wide range (medium - low to medium high). Do songs you are REALLY confident in. You want to sing a song you are sure you can squarely get each note well. Not one where you are 50 50 on a certain high note in that song. [refer to #8]

17. Record/rehearse your singing. Evaluate and fine tune your singing in relations to how your recordings sound like and not how you sound to yourself! What you hear when you sing is not the same of what the audience hear. Internal resonance (hearing youself sing - ear to head) is different to what is presented outside to the real-world (audience).

Additional Tips for Live Auditions

1) Room temperature water is good, (ie, bring a hot water thermostat and cold water).

2) Vocal warmups are crucial. You don't see athletes doing a 100m just like that without warmups. Lip bubbles/tongue trills are enough for 5 mins or so. Body warmups are good too if possible.

3) Always bring mint.

4) Don't intake dairy products, dry chilli or other hot substances prior to performing.

5) Walk in to your audition like a winner, walk out like one regardless if you made it or not(not literally, just be confident). Smile. I don't know about Korean audition environment, but normally, the first step through that door to your (panel of) judges, that confident smile might put a good impression on judges!

6) Be yourself.

7) Don't shout too much the day before.

8) Don't talk too much prior to performing.

9) Plenty of sleep is crucial.

10) If the audition waiting room is cold, and you got nothing to do hum lightly! Keep blood flowing in your vocal folds!

11) Know your lyrics! And bring your lyrics sheet on the day. You'd probably forget the lyrics prior to performance due to nervousness.

12) Take criticism positively. It always helps to improve.

13) Don't ever apologize for anything after the audition

14) Don't ask the auditioner when call backs are or if you are going to be called back.

NOTE: THIS INFORMATION IS NOT FROM JYP ENTERTAINMENT.

IT IS A GATHERING OF SUGGESTIONS FROM FELLOW SOOMPIERS

AND SOME RESEARCH I DID ONLINE...

I mean seriously think about.. think how g-soul got accepted.

And..

Do they expect you to be professional when you audition????

no, not at all! professional = trainnig. they dont expect the best. they expect potenial. alot of people got expect with passion and confidnce over skills. skills ARE requiered but you dont need ot be like kelly clarkson good. just a potensial and uniqueness that will let people see you and trainn you for the future.

jyp is really focused many other things rather than just talent, such as SO hee in wonder girls. VERY (no offence) BAD AT singing. but shes got that star-character in her that made her hit asia :)

get it?

but if you are shaking, horrable talent, then thats a no no. even if you have some confidence you do need SOME talent inside somewhere. doesnt neeed to be a big one, but like a small light of it.

WAIT WAIT

i'm SO confused! i thought the NY auditions were at 1 pm.

no? can someone who actually KNOWS FOR SURE tell me what time it starts??

AND another question..

so i know it's been said that we have to sing one paragraph of a song..

does that mean just the chorus???

and if we're singing AND dancing, does that mean we're only allowed to do 30 seconds of each??????

To tell you the truth, I think that to! lol

People say that I have a very pretty voice or a smooth voice, but to be honest, if I have to grade myself, it would have to be a C maybe C+, but I don't know...
