This compulsory full year module is one of the CertHE programme's four skills modules.
The work begins in Term One with an introduction to the anatomy of voice production. You will begin the work of acquiring good vocal habits through the use of basic vocal exercises. Techniques for direct communication with voice will be introduced.
In Term Two you will develop the structures used by voice. You will work on improving articulation and explore accents and the voices of others.
The work of the final term is on the vocal demands of acting, on developing clarity and power. By the end of the module you will have the ability to assess critically your own vocal capabilities and will have in place vocal exercises and a regime for future use.
