This is the Meet up most of you have asked for and seems to be the most popular. I know it is for me!

There will only be 10 Voice Actors admitted. I have gotten word from many members that less is better. Plan on reading a lot and of course, each read will follow with a rousing round of applause and POSITIVE, ENCOURAGING feedback. We will NOT be covering anything technical, unless specifically asked (and that will be the last topic of the evening). We will also be performing some group reads and we will be introduced to the Frick & Frack Method.

The meet up will begin with a few warm up exercises and then we'll dive in head first to the readings.
Some of the scripts will include contents covering:


* Retail Products
* Automotive - Hard & Soft sell
* Human Services
* Story Telling
* Animation Scripts (Group Reading)
* Public Services


We will also be playing a game entitled "Parrot". In this game you will repeat EXACTLY what you hear... no matter how LOUD, soft, slow, sullen, fast, goofy, over-the-top or just down right wrong. This is a fast moving game and gangs of fun... Laughing is encouraged.

Sign up now SOON, as I guarantee this session will fill quickly.

Bonus> Any script you personally request for practice will be emailed to you after the meet up.

As always I am available 24/7 for questions. I really look forward to the Big Read meet ups and hope to see you there! Also, we will be in the "cooler room"!

    The individualized direction and feedback make this a very valuable experience.

Who attended?

  • 10 attendees
    •  Great fun hearing the variety of readings and getting direction for accents, character, and expression. Love love loved it. 
    •  This class was LOADS of fun! Interpretation using character voices and accents was exhilarating! As usual, Cliff's direction and guidance with understanding the body of work was awesome. I always take away at least 2-3 things from every meetup I can apply IMMEDIATELY. 
    •  Thanks Cliff. You know how to make the meeting exciting and informative. 
    •  Excellent fun! Another chance to explore my range and lose just a little bit more inhibition, even when my accents stink!
