Will voice acting training change your everyday speaking voice?

May be a dumb question. But I've been told I mumble and have a weak voice. I want to be a manager at my company some day and was thinking about getting voice actor training to purely improve my voice for management? Is this logical?

Getting Anxious while Watching others in Movies

This maybe a weird post but i'm going to try anyway. Lately I've been critically watching films to study actors on how they give their dialogue. For instance having subtitles on while they deliver their lines to see the pauses and inflections. I was watching...

I recently spoke with Voice Actor David Kaye about his career and he gave some wonderful advice to those who want to pursue their dream. He also turned into some of his characters and it was fascinating to watch and see!

Where do they go?

When an actor plays a character that dies fairly early on in the movie, and that’s their only role in the movie, to die. What does the actor do during the rest of filming? Do they just chill around in the studio watching their fellow actors act? Or do they...

Advice on acting over the top/hammy/campy/however else you say it.

Alright, a bit of context. I'm a beginner beginner voice actor. In the sense that this is more or less my first time doing something like this, and I kinda need some advice since I can't screw this up, or at least, I don't want to. For context, I'm playing...

For NYC theatre/music actors - do you feel that Hollywood stars are taking your jobs or that there is still opportunity to be leads in Broadway?

So I love NYC and told everyone when I was 5 I would move there. At 18 I was living in the East Village and going to a major NYC college for writing & acting. But in my junior year, a teacher announced Neal Simon was going to off-Broadway. I felt really...

Can we talking about self-producing, and whether or not it's worth while to make a short film SAG, say if you are directing it, producing it, or acting in it, and want to submit to festivals?

Can you submit non union films to festivals? if you are a SAG actor but you are not acting in the short but only directing it, and all the actors are non union, can the film be non union? would it benefit you to make it SAG? does it literally not matter? I...
