Enzo Tedeschi, Stephanie Pringle and Susan Prior.
Actor Susan Prior, filmmaker Enzo Tedeschi and casting director Stephanie Pringle will evaluate the performances at the third Face Off screen actors’ showcase next week.
Performances from around 10-15 actors will be screened at the event at the Chauvel Cinema in Paddington on November 28, starting at 5.30 pm.
The panelists will break down the works on screen and offer advice on how to improve and what producers, directors and casting directors are looking for in performances and auditions.
Submissions which close tomorrow can be showreels, short films or auditions; the fee is $40 per minute. Entrance to the event is free.
“The great thing that came from the first Face Off in April last year is a union between filmmakers and actors that eventuated in the making of A Remarkable Career, one of the most lauded films on the festival circuit, “ the organiser Glenn Fraser tells If.

Julia Billington
When Julia Billington was at the National Institute of Dramatic Art there was a tacit belief among sections of the screen industry that a gay actor could not come out.
“It wasn’t spoken about but it was an undercurrent, a hangover from the past decade,” she tells If. “If you were queer, you should keep it on the down-low.”
Since she graduated from Nida in 2008 clearly there has been growing acceptance of the Lgbtqi community, although it’s far from universal.
Citing the 38.4 per cent of respondents who voted no in the same sex marriage plebiscite in 2017, she says: “We can pat ourselves on the back but there is still a long way to go.”
Currently Billington is relishing playing Tara, a lesbian who died in the 1980s and is reincarnated as a fairy godmother in Monica Zanetti’s rom-com Ellie & Abbie (& Ellie’s Dead Aunt).
