"Thank you Elaine for a really great class this weekend. The more I reflect on it, the more I realize I learned Good Stuff... and "double" thanks for the quick casting in your industrial voice-over. I really appreciate it."
Sean Kresal, Actor

MAKING IT M.I.N.E.
with Elaine Clark
 
Elaine gives you a deeper under-standing of how to become a voice "actor." Find greater depth, meaning, and truth in your message by utilizing MOTIVATIONS, INTENTIONS, NEEDS, and EMOTIONS. These subtle acting skills are necessary to hide the sell by psychologically suggesting that listeners "buy" the product or service you're advertising.

BY THE BOOK
with Elaine Clark
 
As Elaine states in her best selling voice-over book, There's Money Where Your Mouth Is, it's not "practice makes perfect" but "perfect practice makes perfect." Using her book as a text, you'll build a foundation of TECHNIQUES needed to consistently deliver the goods. It is the foundation for all areas of voice-over work.

"I recorded 6 spots! My engineer really seemed to think I was a pro. I was very relaxed and prepared, but not overly confident, having learned from the best in the biz! Thank you so much!"
Keri Fishman, Actor
(Tonry Talent)

"I wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed John Pirruccello¹s ³Spontaneity² class. He has a knack for getting the best out of people by putting them at ease. The class was a ton of fun; I wished it had gone on for another weekend."
Larry Feurzeig, Actor
SPONTANEITY
with John Pirruccello
 
This class is another important element of the 5 step core curriculum commercial training program. You'll learn how to take ownership of the script and lift the words off the page, how to enhance scripts, heighten your listening skills and trust your responses. By learning how and when to trust your own natural instincts, you'll have the confidence and spontaneity it requires to take chances. This ability is necessary to help you stand out at the audition and land the job.
