Module Two - Unit Nine (Option-Two)
The Voice of Violence
Lise Olson

Overview
This course examines high-energy voice use for theatre, classroom and noisy environments. Lise Olson has made a special study of the ‘extraordinary use of the voice’ and will draw from a number of sources including Estill, Raphael and her own physical training. The day workshop will cover physical preparation for extraordinary voice use, safety parameters, how to set the voice up for shouting, screaming and noises of conflict; taking the work into role-play and text.

Learning Outcomes
On completing this unit you will:

  1 Be familiar with research on high-energy voice use.
  2 Be able to identify situations that require energised voice use.
  3 Have developed personal skills in high-energy voice use.
  4 Have acquired insight into helping students or clients in high-energy voice work.

Unit Assignments

  1 Incorporating belting or yelling into a performance scenario or typical role-play.
  2 Produce computer voice-prints that demonstrate the acoustic changes in the differentiated vocal sets that contribute to Belting.
  3 Modelling belting or yelling for students and clients in a teaching situation (you may use recorded material for this).

Unit Assessment
You will be assessed on your understanding of the component parts of belting and yelling, the physiological positions that contribute to their vocal set-up, and the safety parameters that protect the voice from damage. You will also need to demonstrate your ability to belt, yell or shout without causing vocal trauma.
