Rachael Taylor Interview

Dark Horizons posted an interview with Australian Rachael Taylor a little bit about Transformers but mostly about her blossoming career.

What little TF related highlights:
Question: So I understand that you came off the boat virtually and landed this role in Transformers. What was the process like for auditioning?
Taylor: It was not unlike any other - the only significant difference was, I mean you show up, you audition for a casting director and then they call you back and you have another reading with a cast director and I think by the third audition I was workshopping with Michael and then the fourth one we went to the studio. And the difference for Transformers was, because it's such a pop culture phenomenon in a way, they didn't release the script, so essentially when you're auditioning you're working just off of sight. You have no idea what the story is or what the character is or where it goes. So I didn't actually read the script until the fourth audition at which you have to sign a confidentiality agreement and you go and sit in a room and it's just a complete lockdown. So it was the only sort of significant difference.
