Speech

Course open to BFA3 Acting Program students only.
The Fall semester of the third year affords
students yet another opportunity to refine their
personal practice. The work in this course
focuses on the integration of Voice and Speech
skills in the speaking of text. Students practice
speaking poetic texts, both classical and modern.
Language techniques such as Sense Stress and
Inflections are used to enhance students'
speaking skills. Students are expected to have an
effective personal practice regimen by this
point, to have achieved proficiency and ease in
executing the elements of Good Speech as well as
acquired the ability to speak all challenging
language with clarity and excellence of sound
production. The second semester is primarily
aimed at introducing students to Accent-Dialect
technique and to further integration of Voice,
Speech and Acting Technique skills.
