Overview
Using practical exercises led by a professional dialect coach, you will learn the foundations of accent analysis and application, with a focus on a contemporary General American (Mid-Western) sound. You will also be coached to apply these new skills to texts drawn from contemporary American plays during this Acting in an Accent - General American programme from Guildhall School of Music & Drama.
What can I expect?
The course will explore varied approaches to accent learning, the challenges of working in a second sound and applying them to monologues and scene study. You will be provided with a professional dialect breakdown sheet, sample recordings and appropriate texts.
By the end of the course you will have:
- A comprehensive understanding of the principles of accent learning
- Practical experience in the significant changes from your accent to the General American accent.
- Transferable skills that can be applied to any other accent.
