Their mission is to aid a high school student whose desire to bring her girlfriend to the prom has been thwarted by the school's conservative PTA. However, the actors’ well-intentioned but chaotic attempts at activism only exacerbate the situation, forcing both the Broadway divas and small-town locals to confront their differences head-on. Amidst the chaos, they discover shared perspectives that transcend their disparities, learning the true essence of community. With its heartwarming message, paired with electrifying dance numbers and soaring vocals, THE PROM promises to lift your spirits and set your heart aflutter.

Foundations of Voice Acting - now a zoom course
by Colors Audio 07 Aug '24

07 Aug '24

Foundations of Voice Acting, by Dan Popp Career training via Zoom As voice actors, how will we compete against AI? How will we compete against every other English-speaker on the planet who's been to told, "You have a nice voice," and "Voice acting is easy money?" The answer will involve training, and work. Work on the right things. Not endless “practice" at mimicking sounds like a robot; work on understanding the client’s message, and feeling the human emotions behind it. That's a very basic description of what we do in our expanded, 12-hour training course now called Foundations of Voice Acting. Unlike previous classes, this one will be done through Zoom. And we'll go beyond the performance aspect, into peripheral-but-important matters such as home studio setup, agents, demos, and the ins and outs of the pay-to-plays. Emphasis is still on the "voice acting" part of voice acting. The question before us is, How do we not only perform that script, but OWN it? We'll meet virtually for 8 sessions of 90 minutes each, Thursday evenings starting at 7. First class is September 5th. Cost is $750. (Plus tax for Ohio residents.) Your humble instructor has been a successful voice actor since 1989, heard nationally speaking for John Deere, Interactive Brokers, Roof Maxx and others. If you'd like to reserve your spot or get more information, please email me: dan(a)colorsaudio.com <mailto:dan@colorsaudio.com>. Former students have said: Your honesty is what makes you such an effective coach. With your help and a solid, well produced demo, I was able to secure an agent. - Mel Lute THANK YOU DAN! Working with you was quite an awesome experience for me!! I enjoyed every single minute I spent in our training sessions. I truly aspire to move forward and make you (and myself) proud! - Kathy B. You are a marvelous teacher. I learned so much and had a great time becoming more professional and skilled. - Phil Scrimenti If you're on the fence about taking this class, I highly recommend jumping on board should you be seriously ready to jump into the voiceover world! You'll learn so much in each session from Dan's years of experience. He's very down to earth and gives individualized advice. - David Thomas Dan’s coaching stretches your voice, your talent and your mind. - Carrie Doak. To all prospective students: Dan is that most unique of producer/directors; he understands actors. He can coax an incredible performance from you. He can help you navigate the business. TAKE THIS CLASS!!! - Lynette Brown, actor and educator
