Naomi Scott On How to Ace An Audition | Vogue Visionaries | British Vogue & YouTube

Singer and actor, former Vogue cover star and famously Princess Jasmine in Disney’s live-action Aladdin, multihyphenate Naomi Scott knows the art of performance. In this Vogue Visionaries class, she shares the lessons learnt during her career. Split into five chapters, Scott covers her first steps into the industry, how to ace an audition, her defining roles, how to handle critics, and the advice she would give her younger self.

Scott’s is the first of eight classes from British Vogue and YouTube’s new Vogue Visionaries series, which will see experts from the worlds of fashion, beauty, music, and more – from Alexa Chung and Sam McKnight to Celeste and Patricia Bright – impart their words of wisdom and advice on how to succeed in their chosen field.

For those looking to break into acting, Naomi Scott’s class is full of insightful anecdotes and invaluable tips for aspiring performers. From her days spent singing in the church choir to her first audition (for a Dutch insurance commercial), Scott reveals how to get noticed, the skills needed to successfully self-tape, and how to deal with imposter syndrome. She tackles the topic of finding the confidence to speak up when things don’t feel right, and her rules for maintaining a healthy relationship with social media (firstly, no phones in the bedroom). The most important takeaway? “Success isn’t what you do, but who you are”, Scott says. “Always be curious and keep learning, don’t shy away from the things you’re not good at – lean into them.”

I feel like Naomi would be the perfect person to talk to about literally everything. She feels like the perfect human with the perfect advices. Like you could go to her and be like “hey! can i talk to you for a moment” and i’m sure she’ll sit with you for hours and hours and just talk with you and give you advices. She’s seems super sweet and super supportive too. She’s a real life princess and no one can say i’m wrong. she’s just amazing, i love her.

I am not an not even in the artistic as a computer scientist, I find that everything Naomi talked about can be applied into my own life. So grateful to have people like her to look up to and to be inspired by.

[alittlecatinthedark]

Naomi is someone who can just make you smile, and that's special. Another reason why she's my favourite actress!

[monicachiang]

The kindness and sincerity Naomi has really blows my mind ❤️

[Николай-ярк]

Jasmine got me attached to Naomi vibes... and made me a fan of the second. She IS something different. Thank you Naomi, for everything.

It is good that Naomi and Jordan started a production company, that way she can create projects for herself to work on, and have more control of the process. I can tell from this and other interviews that she is a good person. It is also good thing that she continues to live in London, and didn't move to Hollywood. Most actresses who move to Hollywood become less real, and less down to earth. Staying in London she has her family and friends who she grew up with as a support system, and they will help keep her grounded. Her assistant is Tiffany Pope who is her Cousin and her best friend.

British Vogue at it again with innovative ideas, not only marketing products, but actually helping us all develop. I love it! :)

I used to think that you got to be perfect..but as I am growing..I am learning that the real beauty is in the imperfections..everyone knows what perfect is..imperfection is what makes one unique..if i think about it..i like people who are brave enough to be themselves..they make me wanna be myself..to not pretend to be someone i want to be..i am understanding that people don't always judge you for failing..because they fail too..i am learning to live with my imperfections..i am growing more confident in the process..and i admire people who have the courage to say that it is okay to fail..and they have failed too..and u r not born to be amazing..u have to always work to be amazing..in the mean time always be accepting of ur failures..
