Accent Reduction

  Producers and casting agents sometimes desire artificial accents and dialects. Your proficiency in dialects and accents will often get you the job over the next person who doesn’t have this valuable skill

When a casting agent requires an accent or dialect, they need someone who sounds genuine. However, many people who claim to affect their voices with accents and dialects have not mastered the affectation. Often their ‘sounds’ and/or intonation (way of speaking) are not accurate. Other times they’re not consistent (one syllable sounds genuine while the next does not).

 

That’s where Vocal Image comes in.  At our studio you will learn a true dialect from the region of the country it came and you will be taught the skill of matching your dialect to the celebrity on the set or in the studio that the producer has chosen as his stat.  With your ability to tune your ear and match a specific sound of another’s dialect will give you the edge to book that job.
