You get the call from your agent; you have an audition for a US project. Fantastic. Now, along with the usual audition prep you are prepping the accent as well. What is the most useful way to approach a script when you have to layer in a different accent? How can you get yourself audition ready with a quick turn around? Come spend an hour with American dialect coach, Paige Walker, and discuss all things ‘script.’ Please note: This event will take place from 12pm-1pm Australian Eastern Daylight Time (NSW/VIC/TAS time) and 2pm-3pm NZ time.

  • Paige Walker

    Paige Walker is a voice, dialect & text coach hailing from NYC who’s been working in Sydney for the last 26 years. Starting her career in theatre, she’s leaped into work across film, television, theatre and private coaching to assist both actors and commercial speakers in creating a vocal space that goes beyond simple sound shifts. Paige believes and teaches that voice work is a collaboration of vocal, the physical, the mental and a mastery of imagery - which all combine to create character.Paige’s background in theatre, aerials  and dance has given her a unique perspective on the fusion of what makes a voice genuine & honest. She helps you build the muscle memory needed so, on the day, you get to do the work of the character and the storytelling.In theatre, Paige is currently finishing up with the Australian tour of the Michael Jackson musical, while continuing her work with the Broadway company. On set, she started the year on the Tom Hanks film Greyhound, and is now on set for NCIS Sydney ,with still more exploration of ‘seeing’ sound and all the nuances of language.
