About the event
As we get older, we often forget what it was like to be carefree and to play without overthinking everything!! In this class, attendees will re-learn how to allow themselves to play and how to use these fun techniques to create new characters for their VO work. Each attendee should bring with them 2-3 "plushy" toys or "stuffed toys" if we are going with an og term!! Attendees will have the opportunity to tell the class about each of their characters and Val will help each of them to develop a back story. Then we will do some other interactive activities with these characters.
