On the second day, you'll showcase your work in front of Casting and Voice Director Ted Sutton (Far Cry 6), as he gives redirects, coaching, and provides a random "death scene" at the end of your turn...there is also a Q&A portion at the end!

The class had a ton of fun last time, and Ted is currently casting a major project so we're lucky to have him on board!

Also......we'll now have an option for people to participate over Zoom, so if you don't live in Kelowna...you can still join in!

Hello Everyone,

Huge workshop announcement!

I've been asked frequently to do a course on how to understand the recording process for auditions, so I've partnered with Tim Ratledge who is a highly experienced engineer based out of Toronto who I make demos with.

Together, we'll do a voice-over audition process from start to finish, to help you understand the recording, editing, and submission process for sending a high quality voice over audition.

There will also be a Q&A at the end.

Learn the tips and tricks to understanding what is expected in the world of voice acting in regards to auditions, from the comforts of your own home.

The skills learned in this class are incredible, and they will be things you can immediately start using in your process to stand out, increasing your booking rate, and gain a perfect understanding of what is expected when submitting a voice over audition.

We made sure this course was reasonably priced, so that all budgets can have an opportunity to be apart of it.

Contact [email protected] to register.

Cheers!
