A MASTERS EVENT

The First and Only Dialect System Designed for Voice Over
Saturday July 11, 2009, Los Angeles

The voice over business works at breakneck speeds, and dialects must be
whipped up and ready HOURS before a session, MINUTES before an audition.
More than any other time in the last TEN YEARS, accents and dialects are required
for Animation, Games and Audiobooks.

JOIN THREE MASTERS WHO WILL GUIDE YOU

Patrick Fraley has taught voice and dialects for 36 years. Patrick's performance of the audiobook version of "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" called for 43 dialects and over 100 characters, and was heralded as "The Best of this Evergreen Ever" (People Magazine).  Pat has created voices for over 4,000 characters, placing him among the top ten performers of all time to be cast in TV animation.

Phil Proctor has been in the biz since he was 9-years old. He has done EVERYTHING but is best known as a founding member of the 4-man nationally honored recording group, Firesign Theatre. He is Howard on "Rugrats ", the drunk French monkey in the "Dr. Dolittle" series, can be heard in numerous roles for Pixar, and has performed in multiple languages and dialects in award-winning commercials, games, ADR and other animated films and cartoon series..

Vanessa Marshall is one of the most versatile and successful talents in Voice Over, working in all genres including Commercials, Promos, Animation and Games. Her credits include everything from American Express and BMW to primetime promo voices for the major networks and cable to animated TV series and video games.

As I work direct more and more of interactive/game, projects, Pat, I can't tell you how important learning dialects has become...studying should be a requirement for Voice Over in this 21st century.
Ginny McSwain, Animation and Interactive Director
I was booked on a job that called for a "European Accent." Your system helped the character in a way I couldn't get anywhere else!
Steve Bayorgeon, Voice Over
Well, you've done it again! Not only was the audio instruction (and demonstration) effective, but the added written resources really appealed to my "bookish" side!
Angela Harrington, Voice Over
Your dialect system really works,Pat. I got the gig!
