I'm always out to learn more about voice over, but here's the classes I've taken so far... Edge Studio: Investigate Voice Over - The different genres of the industry are taught and the ending of the class had students read scripts; the teachers critique the reads and summate which genres of voice over students would do well in! A great resource for a beginner to dip their toes in voice over. Closing Credits: Voice Acting 101 & 201 - Classes that teach the different parts of the voice box, how posture affects performance, breathing techniques, different types of deliveries and other tips. 101 ensures you have solid foundation for starting a voice over career. 201 leans into about the emotions and how to "emote" when all you have is your voice. In class, you're taught to apply different emotions in different situations, and how to blend emotions to create realistic atmosphere for the listener. Closing Credits: Improv - Class turned into a playground where we played games that tested our creativity and improvisational skills. In class, we learned to 'play' so that when it is time to audition we can make bolder choices and stand out from the rest of the crowd. VoiceOver Gurus - I had private coaching with Linda Bruno. With her and her partners, I was able to create a demo that represents the current climate of voice over and give a representation of what my studio can do. Lisa Biggs: A+ Auditions - Fun class where we learned how to audition with Lisa Biggs and voiceover coach, Yvonne Viner. This class also teaches how to breakdown scripts to get the most emotion from the page, to the listener. Mic: Rode NT-1 Signature Series Interface: Focusrite Scarlett solo Custom Home Studio
