8 BARS
🚫 The 8-bar cut isn’t about the 8 loudest measures of music.
✅ It’s 30 seconds to demonstrate you can act dynamically, sing musically, and tell a story.
🌈 Give us an arc:
Vocal: start soft, end big (or the reverse)
Emotional: shift from one feeling to another
Physical: change shape, stance, or space
Topographical: change location
Discovery: figure out something new
🔥 Variety wins. Anyone can belt, but few can transform in 30 seconds.
