VOICE ACTING FUNDAMENTALS CLASS - Spring, 2022

If you're serious about taking up the craft of voice acting, consider enrolling in our class, Voice Acting Fundamentals.

You'll be coached by a working voice actor with 30 years' experience.  You'll learn in an actual commercial studio.  And we'll keep the class small, to give you more time "on the mic."

What will you learn?

I believe that the primary challenge for the voice actor is the same as for any actor: "How do I become the person who must say these words?"

The voice actor must solve this puzzle without much help, and almost no time.

Untrained people tend to put a lot of effort into the voice.  I show students that the real work comes earlier, in the mind and emotions.  That work is harder.  But it can produce a genuine performance, as opposed to mere mimicry.

There's no magic formula; only insights and techniques.  And a trick or two.

Voice Acting Fundamentals is a performance class.  Other important voiceover matters like running a business, setting up a home studio, marketing, finding an agent, etc., won't be covered.  You can always ask about those things in our free LinkedIn discussion group, neoVo.

We'll focus mainly on commercials and eLearning, with a light touch on character/animation. 

Class details:

10 hours of instruction and coaching.  We'll meet Saturdays from 2 to 4pm, from March 5 through April 2, at the Colors Audio studios in Akron.

The cost is $600 (plus tax for Ohio residents - total $640.50).
