Hello actors: for those of you who live far away, I can now teach you via skype!
You
read right!!! Hello, actors! This email is to inform you that for those
of you who live far away, I can now teach you via skype. Already, I
have students in the mid-west, Canada, and even England!!!! As long as
I can see you, and WATCH you work, and you can see me teaching you,
it’s like we’re in the same room. It totally rocks!
The following is all listed on my website, but for instant gratification, this is what’s doin’…
UP-AND-COMING CLASSES/SEMINARS WITH CASTING DIRECTOR DORIANE ELLIOTT
*ON-CAMERA CLASSES. 2 COACHES/4 STUDENTS (WOW!)
*VO CLASSES FOR ALL LEVELS
*PLAY-TO-WIN AGENT/CASTING DIRECTORS MEET AND GREETS
ON-CAMERA:
Commercial On-Camera. You asked for this, so here goes:
Four or six week on-camera class with not one, but TWO coaches to four students. This class will focus on getting comfortable in front of the camera, specifically doing commercial copy. My co-coach will be Ian Weiss, an Awesome Freelance Casting Director. Ian has cast such notable commercials and campaigns as Life Cereal, WebMD, Advair, Bank of America, Campbell’s Soup, BMW, Nike, Bayer, and the list goes on – not to mention the gazillion Voice-Over commercials he’s cast as well!!! Why is it great studying with a Freelancer who not only casts, but SETS UP sessions at the various houses? Because like me, he gets to call in his fa v’s!!!! Not many Casting Directors get to set up the sessions; they just walk in and go. Not us. If we think you’re great, we get to call you in!!!! We will also be available for private coaching on Wednedays before class, for anyone who needs to prepare for monologues, commercial copy, and/or audition sides.
Dates: Weds, July 22ndh, 28th, Aug. 5th, and Aug. 12th
Time: 6:30pm
Price: $300, early bird special $280 if you sign up by July 10th

VOICE-OVERS:
PLEASE NOTE: THE FOLLOWING VO CLASSES WILL BE TAKING PLACE AT PHANTOM AUDIO, (http://www.phantomaudio.com) A STATE-OF-THE-ART RECORDING/PRODUCTION STUDIO, WHERE I CAST, AND WHERE LITERALLY THOUSANDS OF COMMERCIALS, INDUSTRIALS, PROMOS (AND MORE) HAVE BEEN PRODUCED. THIS IS ALSO WHERE I PRODUCE MY STUDENT’S DEMOS, WITH THE HEAD ENGINEER OF PHANTOM.
EACH CLASS IS LIMITED TO A GROUP OF 8, (QUALITY - NOT QUANTITY, PEOPLE!) SO EVERYONE GETS ENOUGH ATTENTION, MIC AND PLAYBACK TIME. STUDENTS ARE RECORDED ON PRO-TOOLS, JUST AS IF YOU WERE IN ONE OF DORIANE’S CASTING SESSIONS!
Beginning Voice-overs: The adventure begins…
Okay. You’ve been told you have a great voice for Voice-Overs.
You’ve been behind the20mic, but basically have no sound technique. Start getting comfortable breaking down copy, and feeling at ease behind the mic in the same state-of-the-art recording studio, Phantom Audio (http://www.phantomaudio) with the coolest, easiest goin’ Casting Director in NYC! This class will still have you up behind that AKG 414, in that booth, taking direction, and continuing to learn the art, craft, and skill of VO’s. You’ll be recorded on Pro-tools, and will listen to playback so you can hear your progress. And…if you’re good… there will be a surprise guest at the end of the session!
“she makes you WANT to learn, and laugh while you’re learning! I still get coaching from Doriane, after all these years as a successful voice-over actor!”- Timothi Jane Graham(http://www.timothijanegraham.com)
Dates: Tuesdays, July 21st, 28th, and Aug. 4th
Time: 7pm

Price: $260
VO CLINIC. Getting stuck? The Doctor is in.
Three week brush-up seminar at Phantom Audio. (http://www.phantomaudio.com) Advanced only. Limited to 8 people, so as always, you’ll get good mic time. This is for pro’s only. Folks who have agents, who have booked gigs before, but for some reason aren’t booking as much as they’d like. You’ll be up in front of your peers reading either copy you’ve auditioned for – to see how I would have directed you to a better read,20or copy you choose from my files. You’ll be recorded on pro-tools. No edits! Ha!!! Definitely a vocal, reading, and nerves workout. Yes, a butt-kicker. But pain, is GOOD.
Dates: tue, July 16th, and 23rd
Time: 7pm
Place: Phantom Audio large room
Price: $175
PLAY TO WIN: MEET AND GREETS WITH AGENTS AND CASTING DIRECTORS: By Invite only. I need to know your level of acting first...
at these very civilized, cool, laid-back and very informal meet and greets, eight of you will have the opportunity to get about 20 minutes of Q&A with our guest, and then get 5 – 7 minutes alone with that person. If you have a voice-over demo, play it for him/her. If you have a demo dvd, play that! You may also be given a piece of copy to read for that particular person (whether they are legit, on-camera commercial, voice-over, soap, etc.) wine, cheese, baguettes, yummy munchies…
