I want my voice back; patience, I hear, and it might return. (Perhaps it is on walkabout?)
I thought today's exercise was excellent. These small improv exercises are meant to be fun opportunities to be goofy and (among other things) practice breathing, projecting, and emoting.
We'll keep building on these fundamental speaking skills over the course of the semester. In the meantime, I wanted to share with you a bit of inspiration. While trying to find examples for my CMPSC112 class that weren't BORING AS SIN, I ended up finding various a cappella bits.
I thought I'd share one I found. It showcases an octet demonstrating some excellent vocal projection (at the start) and, along with that, being goofy. (Being goofy is mostly a matter of having no fear. That, or no shame. I haven't figured out which yet.)
I look forward to Friday's presentations. They'll be awesome.
