The actor really understands the text, it's lovely to watch him unearth little nuggets of detail I'd never before considered. Thanks again.

One expects the text to develop during a vocal session. But attend to his own speech. His own expression developed nuance, range and elasticity-a good voice coach is magic.

I notice when I was whispering the sounds the muscle of my face really started to hurt. It takes a lot of control to whisper the sounds and yet still be clear.

BABY HOB! Guess he went to some weird places after Dream left him hanging in the eighties. _The pangs of being dumped_ Oh boy yeah does he know it. Anyone else here after falling so far down the Sandman rabbit hole they ran out of interviews to watch?

This is wonderful, and about 50 percent pure bullshit. Consonants are the intellectual structure of language? As opposed to the spiritual structure? Consonants are the structure of language, maybe, but the intellectual structure? That's a little odd.

@jamesvaneaton206 3 жыл бұрын

Yeah, they lost me about halfway through. I see the value in the whispering exercise and in mentally highlighting important words, but to assign greater meaning to something like "Thus" only for the sake of its "S" sound seems like the forced creation of a pattern out of nothing.

In Shakespeare vowels express emotion and consonants express thought. That's what we are taught in drama school and it's true.
