SKILL SPOTLIGHT: Accents in Voice Over
Accent Myths Exposed! Discover the Truth About Using Accents in Voice Acting
FREE Skill Spotlight Training with Susan Berkley on Thursday, February 5th at 8:00 PM Eastern / 5:00 PM Pacific
There’s a lot of confusion around accents in voice over. For many voice actors, accents feel intimidating, confusing, or off-limits altogether.
Is it ok to let your regional accent shine, and if so, when?
Or should you aim for a neutral delivery, often referred to as Standard American?
Is it acceptable (or even "politically correct”) to perform accents that aren’t native to you?
And what about roles that ask for British, French, or Southern accents…how are those actually approached in professional voice work?
In this week’s free Skill Spotlight training, I’ll be exposing the most common accent myths I see. The ones that create self-doubt, hesitation, and unnecessary pressure behind the mic.
Once these myths are brought into the open, accents become far less intimidating.
You’ll gain a clearer understanding of how accents are really used in voice over, how to avoid the bad advice that can kill your audition, and how accents can become an enjoyable and practical part of your skill set.
