The Amazing CHARACTER & ANIMATION STUDIO Voice Over Workout! 5 Week Online V/O Class with PAUL LIBERTI, Voice Director and Casting Director

Monday, January 8, 2024, 6:30pm ET / 3:30pm PT

This event is in the past.

6:30pm - 10pm. Disney, Pixar, Nickelodeon, Dreamworks, MGM, WB, Fox Kids, PBS, 4 Kids - all have different styles of character work that they expect from their voice actors.

So how do you know if your voices are spot on?

Come work online with top Voice Over actor and teacher Paul Liberti for 5 weeks where you'll explore a different Animation House each week with script reading from Classic films and TV shows to help you tap into auditions appropriate for each studio.

You'll learn that Disney characters tend to have a ‘brighter sound' while Dreamworks likes an edgier vibe. Nickelodeon likes a very naturalistic approach for certain shows - while others sound like 1950s animation - where PBS has a different style approach altogether and much, much more!

Paul has worked with and taught alongside of Casting Directors for several years and has insights to these studio's very specific studio requirements.

Take your animation characters to the next level and discover more of what you have inside!

Open to all levels of Voice Over Students beginner to advanced. Adults and teens (14+).

"I loved this class-the one on one's with Paul, his workbook, the HUGE amount of information and how natural and open Paul is! I learned more than I could write here!" -Colleen Britt

"Paul not only gave great instruction, but made you feel really comfortable. This class is perfect for actors who aren't really experienced in animation. I loved that class was interactive all the way through and that every participant was put on the spot to do voices. I learned a ton about character voices and how to develop my own variety." -Michelle McAroy

"I've taken four classes with Paul Liberti so far and everything I've learned has really come together for me this year---I've already booked FIVE voiceover jobs this year, and have had some really exciting auditions, including one for a voiceover for The Walking Dead video game! I've also gotten some very positive feedback from audio producers and casting directors---particularly how impressed they are that I know how to use my body and physicality when I record, and that I'm not just a disembodied voice at the mic. I am so happy with what I learned and am recommending AC to EVERYONE. A million times thank you." -Sri Gordon

"Paul is wonderful-a great teacher and an amazing talent!" -Mary Clancy Mango

"Loved the tips and tricks from a working professional!" -Dennis Mason
