Dialects and Accents
Saturday, August 10, 11am-1pm
Fee: $90 member, $110 non-member (limit 10)
Learn how to effectively recreate any accent or dialect for theater, television, and voice-over. Students will learn the important components of accents (sound substitutions, cadence, mouth placement, melody) so that they can acquire any dialect they wish, and apply these skills to one dialect over the two hour evening.
Vocal Training for Writers
Monday, August 12, 6-9pm
Fee: $100 member, $120 non-member (limit 6)
Help your words come off the page clearly, dynamically, and authentically. Working one-on-one with a vocal coach and audio engineer, students will first get comfortable using a microphone for studio recordings and live readings. Next, they’ll practice reading material in front of a microphone and learns tips for scoring their text and using their voices in a way that helps their stories come to life. At the end of the three-hour session, students will walk away with a recording of their individual coaching sessions.
