can help you to produce any target dialect. I understand
speech not just technically but also from the perspective of
extensive professional experience in TV and film.
I've
lived in the USA, England and Scotland, and have knowledge of a wide
range of accents, both contemporary and period. If
the target dialect is relatively uncommon, it
may be advisable that I do additional
research.
We begin with
key features which differ from your own speech,
training both your mouth and your ear. If you are preparing a
specific text, we can build to key phrases and sentences, or a complete
marked-up script; if you
prefer to develop the target accent before learning lines, I can devise
tailored substitute material. |

Perfect
accents require practice, but it’s possible to achieve noticeable
results quite quickly. For Discovery Channel's Celebrity
Doubles, I had just one hour to help each of the lookalikes
pass for the originals in encounters with the public. Other clips here. |
