VIDEO GAME GRUNT WORK

Join The Viking himself as you breathe life into a video game character until you eventually help them shuffle off this mortal coil. In the morning, with Erik’s expert tutelage, you will develop a character and run through scripts living and feeling as that creation. Then in the afternoon, things will take a turn to the darker side of video games, as Erik will expose you to all the levels of carnage and different ways that a video game character can die, by teaching you how to perform “efforts” and “impacts”: the sounds of dying. How does it sound to expire from the stab of a small dagger versus the swinging force of a spiked battle flail? What’s the difference between falling off a 30-foot cliff versus a 300-foot cliff? And while all this havoc and destruction is super fun, it’s also super lucrative. Actors that have an inventory of battle and death sounds in their repertoire are the ones that get the jobs. Sometimes it all comes down to making an effort.

BOTH SIDES OF THE GLASS

Once upon an unexpected Saturday morning, a cohort of voice actors found themselves before a sound booth glass. On one side of that glass, they were free to play, to chase the whimsy of characters as mischievous as the Cheshire Cat, as grand as the Queen of Hearts and as marvelously mad as the Hatter at tea. Their kindly guide Dave led them deeper and deeper down the rabbit hole where imagination had no end, tumbling into characters, working on scripts, pushing their creativity, shaping choices and stretching their acting muscles. But then… the world flipped! The sound booth glass shimmered, and suddenly the creatively empowered band of voice actors stood on the other side of the glass. Here, a sharp-eared producer named Kemma sat, listening with all the gravity of a King’s court, ready to reveal how each actor’s choices sounded from beyond the booth, giving the feedback that reveals how those choices truly land. And so, they learned what Alice herself once discovered: One side is creation. The other is perception. When you dare to step through the looking glass, you don’t just see yourself differently, you understand the whole world anew. This dual escapade is an adventure in character storytelling where you’ll experience the booth from both angles – actor and producer – and discover just how deep the rabbit hole goes. So, go ahead… drink the potion and watch yourself grow. Curiouser and curiouser…

THE DOCTOR IS IN

Medical narration has a reputation for being scary. It can understandably feel overwhelming at first. There’s tongue-twisting terms, mile-long sentences and scripts that go on forever and sound like they were written by… well… doctors. But here’s the truth: once you get past any initial hesitation, you’ll find that long medical words are just words, and medical narration is simply another kind of storytelling. Learn how to approach medical copy with clarity, confidence and flow. Pronunciation tools, pacing and how to keep complex information sounding natural and approachable will all be covered. Just as important, you’ll practice finding the right balance of clinician and humanity, so your performance builds trust without sounding robotic or dry. And before you think you don’t have the right voice for medical narration, we are here to tell you that those doors are opening wider and wider with each passing year. It’s important to remember that this niche of the narration world is very profitable because once medical narration clients and producers know that you can deliver the necessary jargon, they will hire you time and time again, creating a lucrative repeat client. We’re pretty sure that’s the dream, right? By the end of the day, you’ll see medical narration for what it really is: storytelling with a stethoscope.
