e z_e Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Legacy you nailed that answer, as did Aweed. It's really just that simple, the appreciation goes up that much more. So I don't think it ruins the experience, you just lookfor certain things more, and enjoy them when you see them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cramer Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Awesome! I already feel as if I have loads of respect for the scareactor team, and I also feel as if I don't startle that easily anymore ( I guess that riding a motorcycle in Florida traffic does that to you XD) so it sounds like if anything becoming a scareactor will help revitalize my love for the event.

jrs71985 Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Double-check the audition site on Wednesday. That's when registration for the reunion audition starts. If open-call appointments don't start the same day, it will probably be a week later. Good to know. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

armyofrobots Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 after months of telling myself not to audition this year, I signed up. How can I resist saying I've been a scareactor for 5 years? See you kids out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrs71985 Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 I would expect it next Wednesday around 2 pm. Ok, I'll be definitely checking the computer then. Do you think there is a chance of it opening before that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legacy Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Ok, I'll be definitely checking the computer then. Do you think there is a chance of it opening before that? Who knows. I'm making an educated guess because of when it launched for the Reunion Audition. It's possible it will be earlier, but I honestly would doubt that. Fourteen days prior at about the same time of the day seems about right in my book. If anyone thinks I'm being crazy (or even if I'm wrong) I'll gladly stand corrected.

Maggot Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Just curious as to what times others are selecting. I signed up for 6:20. Anyone else get that time. If so, that could help give an idea of what they plan to do at the auditions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, that could help give an idea of what they plan to do at the auditions. You do realize that the audition today was for returning/current UO employees...right? You have to be a current cast member who works in the park regularly or a scareactor who worked the event last year. To answer your question, it will most likely be done the same as it has in previous years: 1. Go to Human Resources building and they will give you a number, take a head-shot, and varify that you are a current team member. 2. Get the paperwork and go to the large room to fill it out and to socialize. 3. Take the completed paperwork and your head-shot to the table where they'll make sure it is fully filled out. 4. Wait for them to call your number/name. 5. You will get in line in numeric order and they will take you to the audition room. 6. You will be asked your name, and then some type of horror related question. 7. Once everyone is looked at/asked, you will go outside to wait for the results.

Maggot Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 are you even allowed to audition if you've never worked for Universal? since this year the audition process is different what are they gonna make you do? No, you do not have to work for Universal to audition for the General Public auditions. And no one knows what they will make you do until you are auditioning.

senortico Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 Has anyone received an e-mail for auditions yet if this is your first year auditioning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tman875 Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 We got the email for the Reunion Audition on the Thursday after the Tuesday sign-up. Luckily I knew about it before so I got a good time, but if you didn't then you got a much later appointment time. Hopefully they will send them out sooner for the open auditions.

summerTIME Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 do they look for anything special when you audition? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legacy Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 do they look for anything special when you audition? The best answer you can is personality. Unless the audition process goes back to have it was a few years ago (with actual movement exercises coming into play), they have less than a minute to focus on you individually. In that minute, they are looking at your body-type, your posture, and your "look." The question they ask is the only real chance you get to stand out, so you really have to make that count. You need to take the opportunity to be fun and engaging in a one sentence answer, and if you can honestly give an answer that is different from everybody else in the room that doesn't hurt (ie, if everyone is saying "Nightmare on Elm Street is their favorite scary movie, you say "The Descent"). Stand up tall, have a good attitude, and be interesting. That's what they're looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest HHNPicMan Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Just got my HHN Audition appointment. I have the first appointment on July 12. That is the first appointment for general auditions. General Auditions are open now, meaning those people who did not perform last year! Check your emails, and good luck to fellow audiotionees (if thats a word!).
