To tall creative minds
I am applying to a performing arts program and I want to stand out. Since the application shows nothing of my personality please give me some ideas to set me apart from the rest. Should I send a video? Pictures?...etc be as creative as you can with your ideas!

Maybe give some free advice about: School?
I went to the Governer's School of the Arts this year, and they had a whole lesson on how to apply for Arts programs and schools. The best thing to do is to be as unique as you possibly can without looking too strange! Have a good picture of yourself (preferably a headshot) ready to distribute at a moment's notice. And try to put yourself into everything you do, even the application itself. However, if they don't ask for pictures or videos, don't send them in unless you are sure they would review them; some places are really anal about what they recieve, and it could become a disadvantage. If you go into an actual interview/audition, go for a really professional look that makes you take attention (without being outrageous, though!)

im not sure about performing art apps and stuff. however when going for a normal interview aswell as loking formal i would wear something that makes me stand out. so if i was a guy i might wear a bright red tie. as im a girl i might wear a pretty hair assesory or something.
im going to try my best to apply this to your situation but im sorry if it turns out to be complete whack hehe. if your able to send a video a video could be cool. just make sure you show you personality AND show your best abilities.
good luck

Hey there,
A video is definately a more interesting way to go, it will catch their attention and allow them to actually see what you can do. You could do a skit, perform a song, or do a drama act. Making a video could take a while, so if you chose to do this, find someone who could tape you well and spend your time editing it. Pictures are a good way to go too.
I would try and showcase all of your talents if possible. Being bold, suprising, and unique will set you apart. Find what is unique about you and use it to your advantage. I do not know if you watch America's Got Talent or not... but I believe you have to see this guy, he may give you an idea for your program..?.. The performing arts were definately meant for him!
