In this workshop we are going to put down the puppets, turn off the camera and sit around the microphone (so to speak) talking funny all night!
Yep That's the workshop. It's ALL about getting our characters to sound just like we (and our clients and directors) want 'em to!
We're going to talk about how to strengthen and take care of your voice. We are going to show you how to reach high for those top end voices and how to dig deep and bring up the bass. We are going to do some damn silly imitations, and we may even watch some cartoons (of course we're gonna to watch some cartoons). Sound like fun? 'Gonna be fun.
