1. A Journey of Voice Craftsmanship
Ms. Xuan Quynh's journey began at the age of 8, engaging in activities at a children's center related to public speaking. She honed her skills by mimicking voice-overs, narrating movies, and reciting emotionally charged poetry and literature.
2. The Essence of Expressive Voice
Expressive voice isn't limited to MCs or those in voice-related professions; it's a skill that can enhance anyone's communication. It's not just about technique; it's about embodying the message from within. When speaking, attention should be given to three aspects:
Physicality: Proper breath control, vocal cord modulation, and articulation.
Words: Thoughtful and well-chosen words, refined and filtered.
Emotion: Conveying feelings and emotions through voice.
Ms. Xuan Quynh shares key tips to achieve a captivating and expressive voice:
Clear Pronunciation: Enunciate each word distinctly.
Tonal Variation: Incorporate high and low pitches, with resonant undertones.
Volume Control: Maintain a moderate volume.
Pauses: Integrate well-timed pauses for emphasis and reflection.
During the workshop, we also have time to practice our voices by dubbing films and reading paragraphs.
3. Lesson learned
Ms. Xuan Quynh's insights underscore the significance of an expressive voice that goes beyond words, reaching into the hearts of listeners. Whether you're an MC, a professional, or simply a person looking to enrich their communication skills, the principles of expressive voice can elevate your interactions and leave a lasting impact. By understanding the nuances of voice modulation and embracing emotions in speech, we can foster deeper connections and create memorable moments.
