Step 2

How to film your self-tape

Open our app and use its camera to record about one minute of video.

  1. Find a quiet spot with a plain background. Face a window or another source of soft light.
  2. Set your phone at eye level and frame yourself from the shoulders or chest up so your face is clearly visible.
  3. Look into the camera and speak at your usual pace. Record in one take, without filters or background music.
  4. Play the recording back to check that you can be seen and heard clearly.

What to say

Speak in conversational English. A sentence or two on each point is plenty.

  1. Say your name and whether you live in or near London.
  2. Tell us what you enjoy doing in your spare time.
  3. If you’ve acted before, feel free to mention it briefly.

An example introduction
