This week on the VO School Podcast we are looking at vocal health, and how - as voiceover actors - keeping your voice in tip top condition is one of your highest priorities.
So why is voice health so important? What parts of your body need to be in good condition to perform your best? How can diet affect your performance? How soon should you start building up liquids prior to a session and why is alignment so crucial for developing stamina?
We also walk listeners through a typical preparation routine for a major session, including vocal warm-ups and tips to keep you at peak performance throughout a long or strenuous recording.
Joining us this week is Nic Redman. She is a voice actor and voice/accent coach hailing from Northern Ireland and based in Manchester, UK.
As a coach she specializes in Accents & Dialects / Breath, Articulation & Resonance / Voice & Text and Character Voicing, and she has taught at some of the UK’s most prestigious institutions, including: RADA, LIPA, Arts Ed, East 15, ICAT, The Actors' Guild and The Actors' Lab, with recent accent and character voice coaching work as heard on BBC Radio 4.
