Liz, you\u2019ve been successfully voice acting for the last 12 years. Can you share more about how to voice act?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text text_lead=”small” uncode_shortcode_id=”512246″]In the beginning, it was a combination of throwing everything against the wall to see what stuck, doing it every single day (consistency), and never losing hope (persistence).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As far as how to practice voice acting \u2013 let me preface this by saying: everyone is different. So take everything with a grain of salt and do what works for YOU. But if you\u2019re truthful and intentional, I really don\u2019t think you can go wrong. So don\u2019t be generic \u2013 just go for it.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_raw_html]JTNDaWZyYW1lJTIwd2lkdGglM0QlMjI1NjAlMjIlMjBoZWlnaHQlM0QlMjIzMTUlMjIlMjBzcmMlM0QlMjJodHRwcyUzQSUyRiUyRnd3dy55b3V0dWJlLmNvbSUyRmVtYmVkJTJGd1BKOXZIRmo0aFElMjIlMjB0aXRsZSUzRCUyMllvdVR1YmUlMjB2aWRlbyUyMHBsYXllciUyMiUyMGZyYW1lYm9yZGVyJTNEJTIyMCUyMiUyMGFsbG93JTNEJTIyYWNjZWxlcm9tZXRlciUzQiUyMGF1dG9wbGF5JTNCJTIwY2xpcGJvYXJkLXdyaXRlJTNCJTIwZW5jcnlwdGVkLW1lZGlhJTNCJTIwZ3lyb3Njb3BlJTNCJTIwcGljdHVyZS1pbi1waWN0dXJlJTIyJTIwYWxsb3dmdWxsc2NyZWVuJTNFJTNDJTJGaWZyYW1lJTNF[\/vc_raw_html][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text text_lead=”small” uncode_shortcode_id=”122109″]When I get a script \u2013 either an audition or a job \u2013 I hit record. I don\u2019t look at it, I don\u2019t analyze it, I just go and trust my instincts. I like to see what organically comes out of that.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text text_lead=”small” uncode_shortcode_id=”169738″]It could be abysmal, or it could be just authentic and raw. I always think it\u2019s worth recording a cold read (which intentionally or unintentionally also helps your cold reading skills) because it helps you learn to trust and hone your instincts, which bring a script to life.<\/span><\/p>\n

From there I hone and polish as needed. I think these are all things that you learn in the beginning when you\u2019re really figuring out your voice and your individual strengths.\u00a0<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_height_percent=”0″ override_padding=”yes” h_padding=”7″ top_padding=”0″ bottom_padding=”2″ back_color=”color-faded-sky” overlay_alpha=”50″ gutter_size=”3″ column_width_percent=”100″ shift_y=”0″ z_index=”0″ uncode_shortcode_id=”631022″ back_color_type=”uncode-palette”][vc_column width=”1\/1″][vc_custom_heading text_weight=”900″ uncode_shortcode_id=”187041″]<\/p>\n

That’s great advice; but would you say that it’s 100% natural talent or can anyone practice voice acting?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text text_lead=”small” uncode_shortcode_id=”155970″]Though talent certainly <\/span>helps<\/span><\/i>, voice acting can absolutely be a learned skill. Most of the time, we\u2019re just hired to be ourselves. Gone are the days of the \u201cradio announcer\u201d guy. So if you\u2019re good at \u201cbeing you\u201d you can voice act. Easier said than done, however! The amount of time and energy that goes into the \u201ceffortless\u201d read is crazy. In the real world, we don\u2019t have a script in front of us while standing in a box with eight agency people breathing into our ears while trying to be effortlessly natural.\u00a0<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/1″][vc_column_text text_lead=”small” uncode_shortcode_id=”932660″]For me, it\u2019s been the experience more than anything that has elevated my skills and calmed my nerves in those moments. I think coaches are essential early on to help with bad habits, technical know-how, and some of the broader strokes, but it\u2019s up to you to really learn your instrument and how to use it best over time.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_height_percent=”30″ override_padding=”yes” h_padding=”7″ top_padding=”0″ bottom_padding=”2″ back_color=”color-faded-sky” overlay_alpha=”50″ gutter_size=”4″ column_width_percent=”100″ shift_y=”0″ z_index=”0″ uncode_shortcode_id=”128005″ back_color_type=”uncode-palette”][vc_column width=”1\/1″][vc_custom_heading text_weight=”900″ uncode_shortcode_id=”152075″]<\/p>\n

How do you practice voice acting?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_row_inner row_inner_height_percent=”0″ overlay_alpha=”50″ gutter_size=”3″ shift_y=”0″ z_index=”0″ uncode_shortcode_id=”140265″][vc_column_inner width=”1\/1″][vc_column_text text_lead=”small” uncode_shortcode_id=”161452″]There\u2019s this great free resource \u2013 called the internet \u2013 where you can find any type of script you could ever want. And by \u201cscript\u201d I mean anything: articles, book excerpts, spec copy, anything. For example, I enjoy the challenge of taking something out of context or that\u2019s not necessarily written for VO and making it into whatever genre I want.\u00a0<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text text_lead=”small” uncode_shortcode_id=”648788″]So often you\u2019ll get a script that\u2019s full of tech-speak or statistics or let\u2019s say, not the most exciting content, and it\u2019s your job to breathe life into it. Even if it\u2019s a super dry article on the stock market, why not read it as the all-knowing Silicon Valley millennial? Or the corporate CEO? It just helps to see the same texts differently, and how you can do it in infinite ways.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_height_percent=”30″ override_padding=”yes” h_padding=”7″ top_padding=”0″ bottom_padding=”2″ back_color=”color-faded-sky” overlay_alpha=”50″ gutter_size=”4″ column_width_percent=”100″ shift_y=”0″ z_index=”0″ uncode_shortcode_id=”201477″ back_color_type=”uncode-palette”][vc_column width=”1\/1″][vc_custom_heading text_weight=”900″ uncode_shortcode_id=”486154″]<\/p>\n

Then I just started auditioning so that I could get the practice while putting myself out there. Ultimately, it did help me gauge how I was doing since I slowly started getting hired more and more. At the end of the day, the question is always: Am I getting hired? Yes \u2013 then keep doing more of that. No \u2013 figure out what isn\u2019t working.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image media=”94644″ media_width_percent=”80″ media_ratio=”one-one” alignment=”right” uncode_shortcode_id=”880427″][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space empty_h=”3″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_height_percent=”0″ back_color=”color-voice-cobalt” overlay_alpha=”50″ gutter_size=”3″ column_width_percent=”100″ shift_y=”0″ z_index=”0″ uncode_shortcode_id=”429080″ back_color_type=”uncode-palette” shape_dividers=””][vc_column column_width_percent=”100″ align_horizontal=”align_center” gutter_size=”3″ style=”dark” overlay_alpha=”50″ shift_x=”0″ shift_y=”0″ shift_y_down=”0″ z_index=”0″ medium_width=”0″ mobile_width=”0″ width=”1\/1″ uncode_shortcode_id=”392064″][vc_custom_heading uncode_shortcode_id=”182136″]<\/p>\n

On that thought of auditioning, how can someone use voice acting practice lines to hone their craft? <\/strong><\/h2>\n

You can emphasize every word differently. You can vary the energy in some sections and not in others. When you\u2019re practicing, you have to be willing to play and go outside your comfort zone, and just be willing to be awful. I think that broke me free of a lot of \u201csameness.\u201d<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text_weight=”900″ uncode_shortcode_id=”149801″]<\/p>\n

Very practical tip, so have you used voice acting practice lines as a type of voice acting training? <\/strong><\/h2>\n

[\/vc_custom_heading][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text text_lead=”small” uncode_shortcode_id=”162127″]It sounds kind of clinical, but take one line and read it 10 different ways. Emphasize different words, do it with a giant smile, get intimate with the mic, go big energy, etc. If you don\u2019t try it, you won\u2019t know what\u2019s in your wheelhouse.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_height_percent=”50″ override_padding=”yes” h_padding=”7″ top_padding=”0″ bottom_padding=”2″ back_color=”color-faded-sky” overlay_alpha=”50″ gutter_size=”4″ column_width_percent=”100″ shift_y=”0″ z_index=”0″ uncode_shortcode_id=”345363″ back_color_type=”uncode-palette”][vc_column width=”1\/1″][vc_custom_heading text_weight=”900″ uncode_shortcode_id=”186666″]<\/p>\n

Excellent point, and can you share other types of training?\u00a0 <\/strong><\/h2>\n

[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text text_lead=”small” uncode_shortcode_id=”118437″]I am a huge proponent of improv. Take an improv class \u2013 it\u2019s just the best. At the very least, it\u2019ll get you out of your head for an hour or two, but it\u2019s the best way to develop characters, think on your feet, and learn how to add to a script. I often improvise in sessions (read the room first \u2013 it\u2019s not always welcome or appropriate!), and clients (usually) LOVE it. <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space empty_h=”1″][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/1″][vc_custom_heading text_weight=”900″ uncode_shortcode_id=”331296″]<\/p>\n

[\/vc_custom_heading][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text text_lead=”small” uncode_shortcode_id=”694736″]That\u2019s where I recommend a great coach to really hone into the nuances of a specific genre because, in the beginning, you don\u2019t know what you don\u2019t know. <\/span><\/p>\n

For example, TV promo work is going to be a different approach than coaching for eLearning. I think it\u2019s helpful to hire a coach who can identify your voice type and help you find your \u201cniche\u201d so that you can succeed. <\/span><\/p>\n

There are no hard and fast rules anymore about voice \u201ctypes\u201d for specific things; it\u2019s just about you learning to tailor your voice around the genre.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image media=”94643″ media_width_percent=”78″ uncode_shortcode_id=”944699″][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_height_percent=”50″ override_padding=”yes” h_padding=”7″ top_padding=”0″ bottom_padding=”3″ back_color=”color-faded-sky” overlay_alpha=”50″ gutter_size=”4″ column_width_percent=”100″ shift_y=”0″ z_index=”0″ uncode_shortcode_id=”212250″ back_color_type=”uncode-palette”][vc_column width=”1\/1″][vc_custom_heading text_weight=”900″ uncode_shortcode_id=”798784″]<\/p>\n
