Chiara Claudi

The Voice and the Microphone

Dec 12-13, 2024
IN ITALIAN ONLY
Length: 11 hours

As a producer, prodcaster and audio-maker, one of the most complex things is finding the ‘right voice’ for our story. In writing, in tone and of course in sound. 

The voice, any voice, is trained, discovered, shaped and transformed depending on the context. And when it passes through a microphone, the perfect match is born.
The voice at the microphone is an intensive two-day workshop together with Chiara Claudi, actress, singer, ‘voice researcher’.

For two days Chiara Claudi will guide participants in a series of practical exercises, vocal explorations, real training on the use of the voice for audio production.
