If you go into the analytics and click on where it looks like a triangle which shows it’s been watched then click on that and it will give you the total time . I do t read to much into length... a girl got JA’s last week and her 3 videos were only watched for a minute each !! They know straight away if it’s an instant “ yes” or instant “ no” . The maybes need more watching I’m guessing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The red shoes Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Also they skip through parts of video etc so won’t watch all of it from start to finish . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whiteduvet Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Don’t worry. It the technology doesn’t work then they contact you. They don’t just cross you out!! Happened with our JA audition this summer. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bunny Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 How did everyone find the presentation on Zoom? I thought it was fantastic, really informative. I got such a lovely feeling from the staff who spoke, they come across as such genuine nurturing people and painted a wonderful picture of the school. The only downside is now my DS is even more desperate to go (which I didn’t think was possible!) and it has made me hope a little bit more too, despite knowing the chance is so slim! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also really enjoyed the presentation and it really seems like an amazing school. The academic side also seems outstanding. DS had a ballet zoom in another room so missed most of it unfortunately. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never mind, I will keep my fingers crossed he makes finals and can see and hear it all in person ☺️ I think they were so reassuring, they certainly made me feel that if my DS was lucky enough to gain a place that he would be very well cared for in my absence and that makes me feel so much better about letting him move away at such a young age. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thankfully it doesn’t look that different to the RBS video although there are a few differences. We were hoping for face to face auditions here. Really feel sorry for the year 6 children they have missed out on so much of the process of auditioning. My DD was so looking forward to our road trips and attending auditions. Let’s hope 2021 is more positive with the introduction of a vaccine. Good luck to everyone filming both RBS or Elmhurst videos. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Argh! x I will be editing the WL video and just adding in the extra bits Elmhurst has asked for rather than doing a completely new video as also have one to do for Tring and that’s totally different too!! 😱😰 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s only another thing to stress about isn’t it! However hoping with them being reviewed so much earlier than the deadline perhaps we won’t have to wait right up until mid February to hear after all? Fingers crossed ☺️ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes if anything at least we know they’ve definitely managed to see them so that’s a positive.

That’s why I was worried when other has said there had been watched I thought maybe they were watching them by centre the children were due to audition at. My DD was due to audition in Bath.
