It’s going to be a while before you are able to fly AirAsia to Europe, there’s going to many air-route and airport issues that will need to be ironed out, as well as completion of the merger. Any bets that it won’t happen by the proposed July 2007 date? There already is a discount airline flying between London and Hong Kong, Oasis Airlines, they are presently offering 160 British Pound flights, each way, and they give you food,too. And if you’ve ever flown AirAsia, I sure wouldn’t want to spend 10 hrs. on one of their flights.

Backpacking Europe Budget questions.?

Question by nate_morris: Backpacking Europe Budget questions.?
Me and 4 friends will be backpacking europe from may 8 to july 11. We start in London and finish in Barcelona. The tentative plan is UK, Amsterdam, France, Germany, Greece, Italy(for 3 weeks) and spain.

I am wondering about a euro rail pass, that would allow for 10-15 travel days over two months for a fixed cost.
- Does this exist, and is it the cheapest way? Does a combination of Ryanair and single purchase rail tickets make sense?

How much should i budget for hostels. I am thinking about $ 25/night for fairly dingy accommodations.

And I am not sure what i could get by on in terms of food per day. any sugesstions.

not including flights i am thinking about 4000 for the two months

Voice Over Training Guide For Voice Talents

thekings — Thu, 16 Feb 2012 01:16:08 +0000

Between a Hollywood superstar and a voice actor, the latter actually works harder. It’s real challenging for him to show feelings and emotions while reading, fully knowing that he will not be seen on the screen. The voice actor must be able to empathize with the character that he portrays and make sure that he breathes life into the script. It is in this realm where voice over training is necessary.

Voice over artists are able to master the craft of voice acting and find good employment in this field by going through voice over training. There are 1000s of cartoon and animated TV shows, web shows, TV/radio advertisements, web videos, and movies being made continually. Moreover, each movie/TV show has a cast of more than 20-30 characters. The opportunities for a voice talent basically abound internationally.

Voice over training course – the fundamental skills that you ought to possess

Diction is one of the most vital tools of the trade. The student must have perfect enunciation and therefore must attend speech classes to get his diction right. A voice talent would always have two roles to perform – the “acting,” and the “lending voice.” This means that getting a perfect diction is not adequate to be able to join a voice over training, enrolling in an acting course is also necessary for the student.

What’s taught in a voiceover training course

Assessing and interpreting commercial copy for announcer and real-person roles are learned by the student. Interpreting narrative copy, as well as technical copy, are learned as well. The course educates the student how to efficiently coordinate mind, mouth and voice so that he can sound true to his character. The student also learns how to take direction.

Reading, recording, play back, and listening are done continuously in an excellent voice talent training course. This is done in order for students to get it right. Students learn techniques such as inflection, timing and articulation. They perform warm-ups and vocal exercises as well. They figure out how to preserve their voice health. Half-way into the voice over training course, students become proficient at using and modifying tone, pitch, delivery speed and volume for a selection of jobs.

Once a student completes the training, he learns how to market his skills, tap proper contacts, and land voice over work. The course instructors also help them create a voice over demo for their portfolio. An opportunity to experience working in a real studio is offered in a solid voice over training course for students. They also learn what the do’s and don’ts are whenever they are behind the microphone or in a sound booth.

Choosing a voice over training course

There are two facets to voice training. Students who are attracted in selling must opt for a commercial voice over course. Commercial voice overs are employed for selling. Some of the areas that call for this type of voice overs are radio ads, TV advertisements, phone and other media features. Selling skills are also covered by a voice over course considering that all commercial voice overs sell a service or a product. Acting skills are not dealt with by this course. If a student is fascinated in showbiz, then he should opt for dubbing and a movie or TV voice over course. Lip-synching is needed by such courses, hence, the voice over talent also must have to master acting skills.

To conclude, all the world’s a stage and we must play a part. So if you would like to be a voice talent, and you want to learn how to raise your voice, better enroll in a reputable voice actor training course.
