Get A Better Broadcast, Podcast and Voice-Over Voice - A podcast by Peter Stewart
2022.10.26 – 0664 – How To Steal A Character VoiceConcentrate on listening, not just hearing but truly paying attention to voices:· their accent· their pitch, projection, pace and so on (all the elements we have looked at before and with which you will by now be familiar)· where they speak from – their chest, their nose and so on· how they convey emotion in their voice. How do they (or might they) speak when they are frustrated, sneaky or passive-aggressive, inspired or indecisive?· their mannerisms or vocal quirks (do they sniff every few words, or have a slight lisp, a stop-start delivery or whatever?).And then mimic them. You’re not trying to do an imitation, but taking some of the elements or essence of that voice. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
