Canada

This blog is about my trip to Canada from February till the end of July. The reason I have this blog is that my family/ friends and teachers can read what I have been up to.
I'll write about my preperations, flight, what I have learned at the internship company as well as any side trips.

Week 11 - Sunday: Day 48

This day I practiced voice acting. It was a submission for an acting competition, but at the same time I also practiced for the studio. We had to turn song lyrics into a monologue. Man, it was already hard to select a song because everything was in the male perspective, or it rhymed too much or it was too cute etc.
Eventually I chose a song from Sonata arcticaas I could show my creepy side. The end of this chapter was the song!
After that I worked on the commercials. We only had to select two and I had my eyes set on a few, but instead I recorded a lot more as I wasn't sure. Which resulted being torn between four commercials.
I actually didn't do that bad. My enunciation could be better, but I tried to have energy in there and avoided being monotone. Mixing wise I picked up what I have seen at the studio. Having two rows of voices so you can move around some things and get rid of breaths. On the slow commercial it wasn't really needed that much, but it was on the faster paced one. It had a better flow this way.

The immunity lyric round listen was this night and I actually got chosen for immunity together with someone else out of the 6 people who submitted. The judges said this was my best performence in the competition and that I kept improving. Now I am in the top 10 and this is the furthest I ever got in an acting competition.
So I don't need to worry about my commercials, though I am so curious about their feedback.The feedback I receive I will have to add to future commercials in the Studio. No matter I will show the supervisor my submission so he knows what I do with it.
