Acting without the Drama

In this episode, we go through some of the consonants using IPA.

How's that voice coming along? Feel like some advanced vocal exercises? Ready or not, here they come!

This week we move on to combining vowel sounds. Woohoo!

We've been working hard, so now it's time to have some fun!

So, the last two weeks, we talked about front vowels. Today, we tackle the back vowels!

Got some feedback that I went too quickly & could've explained better during the last podcast. I hope this clears things up! :)

This week we're learning Standard American Speech, using the specificity of the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA). Find the chart here: http://web.uvic.ca/ling/resources/ipa/charts/IPAlab/IPAlab.htm

This week, we up the ante a little bit as far as your vocal development is concerned. Have fun!

This week is all about jump-starting your natural voice. Step in and have fun!

For this episode, I teach you how to release habitual tension from your bodies. The release of tension will allow your natural voice to surface. In addition, your presence will increase.

We're taking some time this week to talk about one of an actor's most important tools: the voice!

The major focus of this episode is putting together a demo reel, with some ideas for marketing ourselves "on the cheap".

Getting a great headshot and constructing a solid resume are the topics for this week's podcast. Next week? The reel!

This week's episode isn't really an episode. It's my reel. I wanted everyone to have a chance to see it, so that we could talk about marketing more in depth next week.

Animal imagery and physical tasks are the focus of this second part episode dealing with movement. Don't just listen. Do it! :)
