[00:00:00.875]I often feel like my job is to bridge
[00:00:04.083]from the classroom to the performance space.
[00:00:07.750]I find that my own acting
[00:00:10.000]is very much driven by the text and how you say things and how you express
[00:00:15.791]not just with actually words, but with your nonverbals and with your breath.
[00:00:20.416](singing)
[00:00:22.333]Can we add that all together? (singing)
[00:00:24.083]I find that usually I’m teaching acting through the voice as opposed to teaching just voice.
[00:00:28.916](singing)
[00:00:31.072]One of my favorite things about the job
[00:00:32.741](singing) I have a million one of my favorite things about the job
[00:00:32.750]is that sometimes about halfway through a semester in the sophomore or
[00:00:36.458]junior year, I feel like I hear people's voice for the first time.
[00:00:39.541](singing)
[00:00:41.500]They kind of come in with what they think they should sound like.
[00:00:45.166]That's good. Yeah.
[00:00:46.750]They start deciding for themselves
[00:00:49.083]what it is that they like and what kind of artist they want to be.
[00:00:52.291](chanting)
[00:00:54.541]And we'll be working 1 to 1, and they'll start speaking a poem
[00:00:58.625]or singing a song, and all of a sudden it's like this depth of resonance
[00:01:02.458]that they didn't have before.
