Hi! currently I'm taking part in a singing competition in my school. just want to get some suggestions from u guys on some stage performance tips(not audition tips cos i gone thru it already). just some general tips cos i know it's impossible to pick up the complex skills in a short time in just a few sentences but just try to give me some advice.
Thanks.

We dont believe in instant inprovement but there are some aspects to look at while preparing for a competition...
1. The type of songs choosen... a song that you are VERY FAMILIAR would be good... rather than choosing one that you like...
2. Prepare in terms of stage movement and showmanship
3. Practice well... show confidence and give eye contact to judges during performance....
4. If you have stage fright... Mmmm... that's a bad problem.... This takes time to train... but always look for and try to tell yourself to enjoy that moment of audience... you dont get this feeling everyday....
5. Let us know what else you need help in....

Hi Patrick,
Here are some suggestions I can advise u on:
a. It is always good to memorise the lyrics of the song u familiar with. Practise make perfect but must learn to relax.
b. Remember the key you going to sing cos prior to the competition, u need to tell the organiser which key you are singing.
c. As for stage presence on the actual day yourself for the competition, try to look far.. and not directly below at the audience, this may help you to ease the stage fright if you have.
d. Try to give your attention to the left, right and centre part of the stage as this may help you focus on the different groups of the audience.
e. Do wear something you are comfortable with, nowadays in competition is good to be smart and casual.. thats the attire.
Regards,
Strat
