Description

As a professional voice over artist, your voice EVERYTHING; your product, your brand, and your livelihood. Clients are hiring you for your sound and expecting you to be able to deliver. You use your voice for longer periods and in more ways than most other people. And because you literally are your own instrument, your physical and emotional well-being can seriously affect the quality of the sound you produce. So imagine you get a cold and lose your voice. You can’t work! How can you recover your voice in a fast, healthy way that won’t compromise your career as a voice talent? Are there ways that you can prevent that from ever happening again?

In this webinar, you will learn the basics of how your voice works and how to maintain your voice in tip-top condition. We’ll cover good voice production, identify everyday habits that can negatively impact vocal health, and help you develop a routine for daily voice care. This webinar will also discuss vocal care when you’re sick, and other sub-optimal performing situations to make sure you are ready to record when your clients come calling!

If you find yourself suffering from vocal fatigue at the end of a long recording session, this is the class for you!

In this class, you will:

  • Understand the basics of how the voice works and how we produce speech and sound from our vocal chords
  • Describe vocally abusive behaviors and how to avoid them so you don’t damage your voice
  • Identify common medical conditions/medications that can negatively impact vocal health, and how to compensate
  • Develop a daily vocal care routine, including warm-ups and daily habits to keep your voice functioning as well as possible
  • Voice care for when you are sick and how to recover your voice in a healthy way

  1. The slides at the end of the presentation were most helpful, those covering the dos and don’ts. Probably could have been well covered in 30 minutes.
    I found the course covered a good amount of anatomy being taught by a well qualified voice professional, not a medical professional. DIdn’t understand the real benefit of the anatomy being covered. Maybe in an advanced class, but not an introductory voice health course.

  2. It’s not just about caring for and treating the voice apparatus to make the instrument work well. It’s about understanding our own unique instruments that produce our voices: the vocal elements that allow an actor to play their instrument well.

    The vocal health class is important for all VO actors, especially any for actor who does characters, animations, she is an effective presenter on this topic as she actually demonstrates different sounds showing how the voice makes certain sounds during the presentation.

    Tip: Be sure to take screen shots (with permission) of the key slides that contain diagrams and illustrations – you will probably use them again later!

  4. THIS is what I’ve been searching, to enter into potential voice over ‘fun’ services. I will be signing up for this class and hopefully future classes with Edge Studios. Thank you!
