Voice

Not many attended the one on Voice.

Quotable Quote From last week: Victor- "Have you guys ever used a vibrator?"

Session Conclusion: The voice is an actor's tool. You must really know your tools, i.e. not only must one try to gain possession of as many tools as possible, one nust learn how to use it and master it. In order to master the Voice, one must Listen. For in listening we become better at knowing sound and its elements, such as: tombre (?), texture, volume, projection, placement, pitch, sustain. Good exercise to improve our listening and hence our voice: Try singing a line using the same note and then move up the scale for the next line thus practice stretching our vocal limits.

Halloween: We all went home afterwards. Despite my better judgement, we all went for the halloween party. But first a stop at Victor's place, where he expertly turned all of us into ghouls and fiends. Still there were others who refuse to be made up- insisting that they are frightening as they are. The whole make-up process took three hours. When we finally left the house, it was almost midnight. We went to Zouk first. They had hotties and baddies. I even found my twin! Creepy. Zouk also had what was called "The Happy Side Show" consisting of a couple doing stupid human tricks like sword swallowing, whip dexterity and the like. Unsurprising the couple were from Australia. Afterwards, we went to Club 1919. There was no food there. Sigh! I was damn hungry. Danced a bit and decided to go for some eats at Bangsar. Failed miserably and went home at 4.00a.m.
