Course Description

Overview

STANDARD AMERICAN ACCENT

Acting is hard enough and an accent is merely a tool we take out of our acting toolbox and it needs to live in our cellular structure in order for the audience to believe and buy into the character that you are playing.

In this course I am going to help you with a Standard American Accent.
This is an introduction course and my method is to break down the sounds, put them back together and ultimately throw them away. The lessons in this course are:

  • Accents are all about Sound

  • Rules to follow with Vowels & Consonants

  • The Little Words

  • An “In” for every accent

  • Slates during auditions

  • Breath

  • Conscious & Unconscious Listening (with bonus exercise) 

I truly hope that you will enjoy this course and that it gives you the tools to work on perfecting your Standard American accent. Please be on the lookout for more accent courses from me in the future.
