Synopsis

  •  28 May 2025
     12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

Actors are often required to play real-life people and pre-existing characters, and establishing the voice and idiolect can be a challenging task. This livestream will offer an approach and some possible ‘ways in’ to capturing the specific voice and speech habits, as well as energy and presence of a particular individual. Please note: This event will take place via Zoom at 12pm Australian Eastern Standard Time and 2pm NZ time.
