The Actors Intensive Voice Workshop with Maria Tecce
This 4-week intensive voice workshop series is geared towards both professional and non-professional actors and voice professionals. If you use your voice for a living, present or perform on a regular basis, or just want to strengthen your voice, this is the course for you.
Areas we will cover include:
Proper breathing technique, physical awareness, and how to support the voice
How to strengthen and develop vocal range, effectiveness, and stamina
Trouble shoot vocal problems like fatigue and losing your voice
Techniques to manage nerves and how to prepare for auditions
How to get power, variety, authenticity, and clarity into vocal delivery
In this 4-class series will begin with breath, physical awareness, and move into vocal production, text work, and exercises to strengthen and develop range in the voice and text delivery. At the end of the 4-class series participants will leave with a detailed knowledge of good vocal practices, physical and vocal awareness, warm-ups they can use in any situation, techniques and skills to get colour, clarity, and confidence into their vocal delivery, and how to manage nerves and prepare for auditions.
