Vocal Awareness

First we did an audit of our own voices.

 Pitch- Fairly high, influenced by emotion or content, for example lower when angry and higher when asking questions. 

Accent- Quite posh when speaking to certain adults, less so when around friends, influenced by area, Bognor, family, Northern/Posh and friends who speak similarly.

Slang- Changes depending on fashion. Depends on area, different slang is used in London compared to on the South Coast. 

Volume- Louder with friends, dependent on accent, culture and emotion. 

Timbre- Emotional

I think this has helped me because it means I can focus on how my own voice is and therefore work on changing it to portray characters which may speak differently.
