Elevating Your Authentic Voice: Practical Audio & Video Setup for Voice Professionals!

Thursday 7th August 2025, 2:00 PM - 3:30 PM (London Time)

This practical session is designed for voice professionals such as singers, coaches, voiceover artists, educators, and content creators who want to capture and share their voice with greater clarity, confidence, and creative control.

Whether you are creating teaching content, audition materials, performance videos, or building your online presence, this session will guide you through accessible techniques to improve the quality of your audio and video using tools you likely already own.

You will explore the link between technical setup and professional identity, learn how to create a more polished but authentic sound and image, and consider approaches to make your workflow more efficient and sustainable.

Through a mix of guidance, demonstration, and optional discussion, you will gain clarity on where to focus your efforts, whether that is lighting, mic technique, video framing, or tools to help reduce editing overwhelm.

This session is ideal for those looking to elevate their output in a manageable and human way, while preserving the essence of the voice that defines their work.
