HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR VOICE
Voice is God Gifted, yes it true and fact, but it can be trained, this also
a fact. Nobody is a born singer or narrator or voice artiste, yes he/she may
have a sweet, melodious voice by birth but still his/her voice needs to be
trained enough to modulate, variate and able to perform professionally for
required time.I am here to tell you about tips on how to improve your voice
( for voicing, dubbing, mimicry) so that you are able to have more base,
uncharred, rhythmatic
voice and have some control over your throat to produce variation and
modulation in your voice as and when necessary. What ever you want to become
in voicing arena, be it voice over artiste, dunning artist, mimicry artiste,
performing actor, you need to modulate your voice according to the mood of
the script. This is the first requirement of being a professional voice
artiste. Anyway, lets begin with the training
1. Like what a singer does every
morning called "Riyaaz" you should also do the same every morning.You can
take "Sa" only of Sa re Ga Ma and then take a deep breath and start reciting
"Sa" with your full base voice till your breath ends. Keep in mind you have
to inhale fully and should go on saying "sa" till the end of your breath in
a continuous pitch without any breaks or modulation of your voice. This will
not only help you in having good base voice but also increase your voicing
stamina.
2. If Voice Over is your target, you
should everyday practice atleast two scripts with proper diction,
pronunciation, modulation (as & when). Similarly for other voicing fields,
mimicry, cartoon dubbings, simple dubbings stc. Record your voice everyday
and listen. Everyday you will notice some improvement.
3. Yoga plays a very important role in
keeping your throat & voice healthy. Everyday chanting of "OM" for 10
minutes will give similar positive results as mentioned by me in point 1.
You can also perform other Asanas for throat as "Singasana" and "Bharamri
Pranayam" and "Ujjhyani Pranayam" which will clear your throat and keep you
away from all problems.
4. Stay away from very cold things,
aerated waters, chocolates, pickles, chillies and anything very sour-I hope
you like my articles on voicing. Do send me your comments which give me
confidence & courage to write more. I hope your and my journey will continue
for long.
