starlightdreamer Posted November 2, 2013 Report Share Posted November 2, 2013 I am 13, turning 14 in January. I was planning to make a video audition for several schools, one of which being San Francisco Ballet. The website states that girls 14 and up must do the entire audition on pointe. I don't know whether to film the video in technique shoes (except for the last few minutes) or in pointe shoes. There is no way of telling whether I would be 14 by the audition in person, as there is not one anywhere near my city that I can go to. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thank you!!

Administrators Victoria Leigh Posted November 2, 2013 Administrators Report Share Posted November 2, 2013 Since you are making the video at 13 years old, then I think you can do it like a regular class, with pointe at the end. Quote Link to comment

Administrators Victoria Leigh Posted November 3, 2013 Administrators Report Share Posted November 3, 2013 I would suggest making the video and sending it before you turn 14, if that is possible and they will accept it prior to January. Quote Link to comment
starlightdreamer Posted November 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2013 Okay, I hadn't thought of that. They accept video auditions beginning the 6th and my b-day is after that. Very good plan! Quote Link to comment
starlightdreamer Posted November 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2013 Actually, I will have to do it on pointe. I emailed the school a week ago and they responded, confirming my thoughts. Oh well, I wish you had replied to the email!! Quote Link to comment
