I have absolutely no interest in acting but this interview was incredibly educational. It also helped me to really appreciate the craft of acting and the hard work behind it. Thank you!
This woman is incredible. I’m a fellow Latina, and I dream to work with such authentically passionate creators like her. Wow, just wow. My respect to you señorita Del Valle.
I love your tip on taking improv classes. I have a tough time acting a skit or scene that I haven't written out and pre-planned and I think looking into improv classes would be beneficial to me. Thanks!
This video is a gem. I'm an actor and I just would like to say thank you so much for doing this interview. Very informative and helpful. I'll be sure to execute all these tips in my next audition.
I can 100% see why that commercial director wanted to work with you all the time! You are an amazing breath of fresh air and I see your light shining. I better go put my sunglasses on...Thank you!😎💜
I throughly enjoyed and learned from all your comments. You are a most photogenic young lady. Why are you not still in front of the camera? Crazy as it may sound, at 75 years old I was selected to go to an artist showcase. I had never auditioned before …but took my 13 year old granddaughter to a random call and “got a while hair” to read a commercial ! They choose both of us! I’ve always been “the Funny Girl”…quick with a come back…but this time I was struck dumb! I’m neck deep in it and scared out of my skin. Too much …too late for this ‘Ol lady! Certainly don’t want to disappoint the kind folks who are giving me this chance. Watching you and others will hopefully help… Thank you Ms. Donnie Quinn (Martha)
A big thank you to Elaine Del Valle for this interview. I listened to the whole thing this morning while at work and felt like I was in class and enjoyed it.
Gracias. Es refrescante atender este tutorial pues he tenido la suerte por casualidad de participar en algunas producciones comerciales por casualidad y la verdad lo disfruto pero me sentí perdido a la hora de los castings y los self tapes. Ahora que he considerado hacerlo “en serio” es de gran ayuda estos consejos y más si viene de alguien latino que se hizo camino en producciones norteamericanas.
Thank you so much it was so inspiring and I so needed to hear this today to continue to push forward forward In the stream and the smart form. You you are by far one of my favorite guests to guest to listen to
Hello Ms Del Valle, i'm interested to learn more about being a Voice Over talent for your casting requirements... I would love to be considered in your projects as an offshore VO talent auditions , am happy to visit your channel and saying hello from Philippines . Thank you, Ira Custodio 😀
I deeply loathe the whole self tape experience. Especially when I’m by myself and I have to go start the recording myself first. Really. I just hate it. It makes me want to cry cz I never seem to get out of my own head with a cell phone placed in front of my face. And most of the time I never even end up sending the audition tape. Id prefer in person auditions any day Bcz then….it’s as if a light goes on immediately in me. I am at my best when I’m under pressure. Not when my environment is telling me it won’t be all over if you make a mistake- you can go another round-you have all the time in the world.

This is good stuff and I've been around the block!! I love her honesty, straightforwardness, and lack of pretension.
Thank you, I never been in audition yet. Still going in the classes to get training. Perhaps, maybe next year I’m ready! Thank you for your guidance.
Such a lovely CD! Thank you for sharing your heart! I wonder if auditions will ever go back to being in person. I miss interacting!
Thank you…very open, generous and kind

What are those online platforms where actors can do the auditioning practice for each other that she mentions?
