I thought I was quite a beginner at voice acting, but I realise I'm not learning much new knowledge from this course. Most of the talking was spent on introducing and not diving into specific beginner techniques. The range of tips given were also very general and limited. Much of the time was also spent on situations and hearsay talk, instead of technique and knowledge. Nevertheless, the speaker was engaging and did give some opportunities for practice.

I thought this was a good course. I would like to emphasize that anytime you are practicing or auditioning that standing is the best way to optimize the use of the diaphragm. I would have like to have learned more about the type of equipment someone would need for a home studio and how do people find an agent and get started marketing their voice. I love Nadar's accents. I appreciated that this was not a long class.

I will review this course again to brushen up on what I've learned. I would have also liked to see a celebrity voice impression. I've been working on my Denzel Washington impression. It's pretty tough for me starting out.

He goes on and on about nothing. I learned very little about inflection. How about he puts a place we can go to learn more about inflection at the end of the video? A book or instructor or video? I can not believe this class was selling for $200.
