Hey guys! I'm audition for my first f.film but it's via online. So, I would have to make a video. Thing is, this is my first time audition this way and I don't quite exactly know what to do?

I have the script and the lines that I'm suppose to play. I would assume I would read the lines off the script, but I'm conversing with someone, should I get someone to do this with me or just read my lines?

You need to have someone OFF CAMERA read with you. Hopefully you are both appropriately miked. Use a plain background and light properly. Slate with your name and representative a bit about yourself like height and weight. Start with a full body shot and zoom in to medium closeup. You can stop tape at this point. Then start the scene with the medium CU shot. End the audition with a CG of your name and contact info.

And see this audition for an example of how it's done (except that you won't have camera movements in yours):
