Episode #6
“A lot of us take our voice for granted. We only realise how powerful and important it is when we lose it. Which is why I try to get out as much as possible so people understand their voices."
Today, I’m speaking to Nicola Redman. Nic is a voice and accent coach who works with narrators, podcasters and actors – “voice users”, as she calls them – helping them reach their speaking, recording and performance goals.
On top of having recorded voiceovers, she has also taught at some of the top drama schools & theatres across the UK. Nic hosts the Voice Coach Podcast, co-hosts The Voice Over Social Podcast and she runs the Voice and Accent Hub on Facebook.
She’s originally from Northern Ireland and is now based in Cumbria.
I wanted to speak to Nic because as creatives, we’re often expected to talk about our work quite naturally – with ease and confidence. We should be able to stand up in public and just blurt something out. But for most of us, that’s not the way it is. Our voice won’t come out the way we’d like it to – it cracks, it doesn’t sound quite right or maybe our accent is off. We feel self-conscious and lose confidence.
Speaking with impact doesn’t come easily for most of us. So it’s helpful to understand how the vocal system works so we can learn to play our instrument more fluently. And today I’m speaking to someone who teaches just that.
She shared her thoughts on:
