that performed at Carnegie Hall

我擔任樂團的長笛手

and director of artist development

這回的 YouTube 交響樂團 2011

for the YouTube Symphony Orchestra 2011.

我擔任藝術設計總監一職

And I'm here to give you some quick tips

接下來我要給大家一些小訣竅

on how to make a great audition video.

告訴大家如何錄下優質的試奏影片

When making your YouTube Symphony audition video,

錄製 YouTube 交響樂團試奏影片時

you are allowed to play each excerpt

你可以反覆演奏每個節選樂段

over and over again and then go back

然後重新觀看每段影片

and choose which one you think is your best

並從中選擇表現最好的一次

and submit that excerpt

然後提交您的最佳作品

for your audition.

當作是參賽的試奏影片

But what you're not allowed to do is to edit your excerpt

但是你不可以把出錯的部分剪掉

every time you make a mistake and chop it up

透過剪輯手法拼湊出一部完整影片

so that we don't really know that you can play

如果是這樣， 我們就會懷疑你是否真的可以

the whole excerpt from beginning to end.

從頭到尾完整演奏一個節選樂段

With video, it's pretty obvious when people stop the video,

觀看影片時，我們很容易發覺 過程中是否有暫停錄影的行為

go have a cup of coffee, come back the next day,

如果演奏不順 請休息喝杯茶，下次再來

play it again, so I thought I would just show you

我這就做個示範

how obvious it is so that you can make sure

讓大家明白透過剪接拼湊 有多容易露出馬腳

that you don't try to do that on your audition video.

希望可以確保 大家不會在試奏影片中這麼做

What? It's Alex Ross.

咦？這不是 Alex Ross 嗎！

[吹奏〈小星星〉]

So, please, no editing within excerpts.

看到了吧！ 請勿剪接您的試奏影片
