The Importance of Voice in Acting I think this is a topic that need s to be discussed because many actors forget about how powerful your voice can be. Actors can get stuck on emotions and actions but they forget that our voice is so important. When you are watching a play or movie you don’t want to say “What did they just say.” There is a script for a reason and people come to hear the show just as much as they came to see it. Speech is a very powerful tool and it can assist an actor in achieving objectives in a scene or whole production Many people are not aware of how to get a good speaking voice. But if you do have one casting directors (especially in stage) take note of that. If you have a good voice that people want to listen to it will get you one step closer to getting that role. People don’t want to hear someone talk if their voice is too high, bad articulation, speaks too fast, speaks too slow or has a lisp. It is very important that you are training your voice just as much as you are training your acting chops. The way to get a good voice is through daily exercise. It has to be done if you want that golden voice. You should be doing articulation exercises, placement and breath support. Having a good speaking voice is essential in this business. It is an easy way to cut someone out of the running for a role no matter how talented that actor could be. If the director can’t understand what you are saying you will not be able to achieve greatness, which is what people want in this acting business.
