Audition Instructions for Instrumentalists

PORTICO Instrument Video Auditions | 'How To'

You will find two songs in your instrument folder. Please submit one video that includes both songs.

Step 1: PREPARE FOR YOUTUBE VIDEO AUDITION

- Prepare for the audition using the 'reference' MP3's and chord charts. Try to match your part from the song as close as possible.

• For example, If you're auditioning on piano for Way Maker, prepare for your audition using the mp3 titled 'Way Maker-Piano Reference".

Step 2: RECORD YOUTUBE VIDEO AUDITION

- Record your video using the 'audition' MP3. Make sure that your instrument can be clearly heard over the MP3 in your recording.

For example, If you're auditioning on drums for Lion & The Lamb, record your video using the MP3 titled "Lion & The Lamb-AUDITION Track".

Step 3: UPLOAD YOUTUBE VIDEO AUDITION

- Upload your video to YouTube. If you do not already have a YouTube account, you will need to create one. - On the upload page, select the 'CREATE' button at the top right of the screen and then select "Upload Video." Title your video ‘(Your Name) – PORTICO WORSHIP AUDITION’ and change ‘PUBLIC’ to ‘UNLISTED’.

Step 4: SUBMIT YOUTUBE VIDEO AUDITION

- Once your video is uploaded to YouTube, send an email to arts@porticocanada.ca with your FULL NAME and YouTube video link.
