Okay, you've studied the character description, audition sides, tone of the scene, and you've chosen a voice. But why isn't it “clicking?” Sometimes, in order to truly find a character, you need to FIND THE FUN! This prolific voice performer calls upon decades of experience as well as a Master's in Psychology to help each student find ways to access real, personal connection, inspiring the joy that makes a role “fun” for you. This is a slightly smaller-sized class in order to allow participants more time to dive deeper into their own process (one character per class day) and support other students as they work through their own material. Julie offers a 30-minute Q&A after each class (attendance optional).
Classes held at this level teach advanced concepts under the assumption that you understand foundational techniques and have prior experience reading copy and receiving feedback in the relevant track.
This class is held on Zoom. Class will not be recorded.
Class size is limited to 10 students
Cost: $250.00
Spaces Remaining: 2

SAG-AFTRA, California's Labor laws, and the Krekorian Talent Scam Prevention Act state that casting workshops are allowed under the law but cannot offer auditions or employment as part of their services. By registering for a class taught by a talent agent, casting director, producer, or actor who hires talent, you are fully aware that it is not a job interview or audition. By attending a class through a Talent Training and Counseling Service, you further understand that the intent of the class is solely educational.
