Speech and Voice for Actors
Actors have unique needs and challenges when it comes to voice and speech. Vocal projection, speech articulation, accent modification, and developing a free, open channel for emotions to be conveyed truthfully are vital skills for an actor to possess. Having trained and performed as an actor herself for many years, Hilary understands these needs and she wants to see actors succeed! She collaborates with Kimball Studio out of New York City to help film, tv, and stage actors communicate their characters truthfully, as well as how to communicate confidently in interviews and with industry professionals.
