Jeez Loueez • Honey Badger Act Review • 5:30-6:45 PM - 4 spots only!! 
Are you ready to take your act to the next level? Engaging in meaningful feedback practices can be exactly what it takes to level up in the industry. Bringing objective eyes into your process has the ability to catch continuity issues or simply enhance your strengths that you can't quite even see yet! Bring an act you've been developing that is in a stage of completion (1/2 to fully complete- has costume pieces etc).
 
You'll have 20 minutes from start to finish with your time. Introduce yourself, share a bit about what stage the act is in and then perform it in its entirety to get notes on movement, costuming, presence, mapping and more.Perform as if you are in a full audience! After your act is complete, Jeez will very briefly discuss your act while you grab a quick drink of water and a robe and then we will chat with you about our notes, as well as hand over written notes to you. 
 
Send your music by March 20 at 12pm appropriately titled with your name ie: “Linkin Bio- summertime blues” to legendschallengesf@gmail.com and we will follow up with your designated Review Time Slot.
 
Arrive at least 30 minutes before your slotted time to get ready to perform in your makeup/costume. Feel free to use the bathrooms to get ready. Bring your phone to record your act if you'd like- we will have a tripod for you to place your phone into.
