Summer 2020 Classes - In Person
If we are able to offer in-person classes this summer, we will offer online students the first opportunity to switch classes if they wish.
If you are previously enrolled in an in-person summer course, we will be processing refunds beginning on the first day of the scheduled class (for example, we started processing Session 1 refunds on June 22).

You might never see them, but voice actors provide the characters and voices for commercials, video games, cartoon characters, audio books and radio plays and announcements.
Students will focus on the use of the voice to convey meaning, portray multiple characters and to describe settings effectively for listeners.
Each student will work on: 1.) a commercial; 2.) a scripted dialogue between two different characters; 3.) narration and dialogue from a book or novel; 4.) a documentary narration (facts about a particular subject; 5.) one character from a radio play.
Students will work toward developing a small portfolio of voiceover examples and class will culminate with a final online presentation that will be delivered via video link.
