WHAT ESTILL IS NEEDED FOR:

All Estill exercises, including work on vocal qualities, can be applied both to the singing voice and to the spoken voice.

EVT can teach actors and singers to improve the effectiveness of vocal production, better manage the effort of performance, optimize muscle work and the role of breathing, extending the vocal range, vary the tones based on the character or style, lighten or darken the voice, clean it or “dirty” it, increase or eliminate the nasalization to “characterize” a character, increase the projection, audibility and volume of the voice, control all the structures that contribute to the production of vowels and consonants in order to work on a more conscious diction and easily master the accents of different languages, of different dialects (and sociolects), and much more.

COURSE DELIVERY: ONLINE

WHAT THE COURSE INCLUDES: 44 hours of online lessons in small groups; video recording of lessons available for watching throughout the course. Assistance with booking procedures and exam procedures. Free unlimited periodic checks via chat, email, 1 on 1 online meetings, or live recordings (short messages or meetings not exceeding 10 minutes).

CERTIFICATION: Subject to passing the exam.

LANGUAGE: Korean and English

DESCRIPTION OF THE COURSE:

Although anyone who speaks English (or Korean) can enroll in this course, it is designed for Korean-speaking students and will allow them to take the exam during 2020 in the Korean language and in Korea.  Therefore, it is taught in English and retranslated into Korean by an interpreter present in the classroom.

All participants who do not speak Korean and who can pay for the course in EUR (€), GBP (£), USD ($), JPY (¥) or AUD (A $) will receive a 30% discount.  So, there will be a great reduction on international transaction fees. I will assist you in the procedures for taking the exam in your language or in English and in the country closest to you.

However, priority will be given to students of Korean language and residence.

During the 22 meetings that last 2-hours each, the EVT Figures for Control of Voice and the Estill Voice Qualities will be explored, focusing in particular on the tasks to be performed to pass the EFP certification exam.

The EFP exam is reserved only for those who have attended at least one official Estill Level 1 and 2 course. Each lesson of this course is in fact accompanied by a brief theoretical explanation of anatomy, physiology, introduction to the exercise, and application of the topics to the performance. However, the work will focus on practical tools useful for passing the practical EFP certification exam, which can only take place after attending the level 1 and 2 (in-person) course.
