Join us for the Actors Accent Toolkit on November 20&21, 12-4pm AEDT.
Love accents, but don't know how to work on them on your own? Want to refresh your accent acquisition skills in plenty of time for pilot season?
This eight-hour, two-day course run by Linda Nicholls-Gidley and Simon Masterton, accent teachers at NIDA and WAAPA, is for motivated actors looking for a structure and a consistent process for learning new accents.
With a tailored blend of discussion, exercises, and context-building, you'll walk away with an understanding of the muscles that shape speech, the building blocks of accent, and the tools you need to be your own coach.
The toolkit is a great intro to the KTS approach, with reference to a range of common accents but a focus on skills. It points the way to how to teach yourself accents, and can be a foundation for future courses on specific accents, or our longer, more in-depth courses: Experiencing Speech, Phonetics, and Accents.
