After a clear and thorough explanation
of the Art & Styles of Voice-Overs you'll work first hand
with various microphones, (large & small Diaphragm, Dynamic
& Condenser, Cardioid & Shotgun), and different recording
techniques, (normal & close mic, on & off axis, single
& ensemble, etc.)
Although the 18 hours of studio recording
is a fast paced, high energy, upbeat experience, Mr. Flynn is
well-known for his ability to focus on each student's personal
abilities & potential during the studio session.
In the Studio you'll work with:
- Radio & TV Commercials
- Educational Video & TV
- CD-Rom & Multimedia scripts
- Corporate Videos
- Audio Books
- Animation Voices

| You'll also become familiar with the
effects of various mics & recording equipment, (tube pre-amps.,
digital effects, pitch shifts, etc.).
In addition, you'll
get to work on different techniques for improving breath &
sibilance and plosive control.
Students will enjoy two intense days
recording in a state-of-the-art, digital audio facility. All
work is done with broadcast quality studio mics & equipment.
