Your Path To Hollywood
You want to be a Working Actor but when it comes to building a sustainable career it takes more than just talent to get you there.
If you're an Actor born outside of the U.S. and you want to increase your auditions and opportunities then you will need to master the American accent in order to book U.S. roles.
The problem is most Actors struggle maintain the accent in performance or think about the accent during their audition.
There are tons of U.S. projects filming in Australia, NewZealand, Canada & The UK. Which means the path to Hollywood looks very different for today's Actor. The good news is you don't need to be in Hollywood to build a career working on U.S. projects.
Join your host, Katherine Beck (American Voice/Dialect Coach & Voiceover Actor) for a 'behind the scenes' look into all aspects of the U.S. Film/TV industry and what it really takes to master the American accent, nail the U.S. auditions & book those dream U.S. roles. What separates you from the thousands of other Actors is mindset, skillset and strategy and that's exactly what we will cover in this podcast.
Katherine has helped hundreds of Actors book U.S. auditions, callbacks and roles. Now it's your turn. Get past your doubts, wondering 'will I ever master the American accent' to FINALLY feeling confident performing with an Authentic American accent.
Get tips on how to perform with an American accent, listen to interviews from working actors & industry professionals and get the inspiration you need to continue to follow your dreams so you can thrive as a Working Actor in this biz we call Showbiz.
Your Path To Hollywood
The Most Effective Way to Maintain an Authentic American Accent in Performance
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Let's get something straight. If you're auditioning for film & TV roles that require a Standard American accent, chances are you are not losing the role because you lacked talent/ You more than likely missed out because your accent wasn't ready for set.
In this episode, I share what it really takes to maintain an authentic American accent whether you're auditioning or on set or being handed new lines moments before a take.
If booking U.S. roles and feeling CONFIDENT auditioning and performing with an American accent are your goals then this episode is for you.
I want to challenge the way you think about accent training and show you what separates actors who are ready from those who aren't.
Listen as I talk about:
- Why waiting until you get an audition to practice is holding you back
- How to train for the unexpected demands of working on a professional film set
- The mistake many actors make that keeps them stuck at the same level
- What it really takes to maintain an authentic American accent in performance
