What You Should Do For American Idol Preparation

By Ruthie Calderon


If you have a golden talent for singing, then you might want to consider joining various singing competitions. Even if it is just a talent show, you can still go ahead and audition. Your talent will be showcased to the world and you can even win prizes for your talent. As long as you prepare for the said competition, all is good.

There are competitions that are even televised nationwide. If that is the case, then you have to prepare even better. For your American Idol preparation, there are things that you must bear in mind. Here are some of the tips and checklists that you have to pay close attention to when preparing for this particular competition.

First, it is important that you pick good songs to use for your audition. For most competition, the audition will just require people to sing at chorus. Thus, it is highly recommended that you pick those songs with great choruses on them. This way, you can belt out the song and impress the judges even without going through the entire song.

Practicing the songs you pick is a given. If you are practicing, then do so with an accompaniment. This is so that you can get the notes right even when there is no accompaniment during the actual audition. You will be able to sing right on key even when you are singing a capella.

Of course, you should not just focus on how it is sung with its accompaniment. You should also practice how to sing this song without its accompaniment. That way, you can determine if you have really gotten used to the song and if you can sing your song choice even without the music.

There is no better way to practice the song but doing so in front of the mirror. No matter how good you are at singing, if you do not look good in front of others, you might lose your chances. Thus, you have to see what you look like singing before you audition. Sing in front of the mirror to see how you look like singing then.

It would be beneficial for you to have a camcorder. This means that you will be practicing singing while in front of the camcorder. Through the camcorder, you can record your entire performance and see which part needs adjustment. You can improve yourself according to the competition's visual, performance, and vocal points through what you see on the camcorder.

Try to practice your songs in front of an audience. It may just be your family or the guests you invite over your house during a party. Participating in front of an audience is a good thing because you get used to the ambiance when there are others listening to you sing. Live performances are definitely good for practice.

It should be good for you to practice singing even in your sleep. This is actually not a joke. You will find it calming for you to practice singing even in your sleep, especially if the competition is edging closer. This is also good when you need to stay for a few days for the competition. You can calm down with this.
