Class 7 Homework Assignment Mrs. Mary Nillimore
IzziVoices for Voice Actor
3 auditions per day
200 doggy pants per day: it has now been 6 weeks since we introduced this exercise to you all. For those of you who are getting use to 200 and can do them comfortably in 1 sitting, I recommend aiming for 400 at this point. Either way it's time to start creating an exercise regime.
Monologue: Going forward, I will be listening to not just your vocal techniques but also bits about your acting as well. I encourage you all to be reading this week's monologue while moving your hands. If you are able to watch yourself in the mirror, pay attention to see if you are repeating the same hand gestures over and over again; or perhaps, you find yourself nodding to a particular rhythm; or maybe your hand movements aren't synchronized to your speech sometimes. This will teach you a lot about the way you act and show you some habits that you never knew you had in your acting.
Say something you think would fit
Okay - loving how natural you are making this. REALLY SUPER GREAT READ. I can tell you focused super hard on your speed so A +++++ . there were still some slurs in there, but this was a fantastic piece for me. I think you should still be projecting a bit more, as this might help the clarity. Alot of sibilance in here so we have to keep working on that for sure but I still think that is about speed (I think you say the individual words fast so it slurs, but your overall pace is MUCH MUCH better. Some great improvements in here. Slowing it down just a bit and a bit more projection and this is just right. Great work here Anthony - night and day!
Thank you. I'm focusing on fixing that sibilance problem.
