SUMMARY:Vocal Characteristic Mechanics with Earl Fisher
DESCRIPTION:14th May 2025 – 3pm EDT / 12pm PDT / 8pm BST \nThroughout Earl’s 40- year voice acting career\, he has cultivated a massive toolbox of vocal characteristics. These are building blocks used in combination to create countless engaging\, multi-layered and nuanced voice prints for commercials\, narration\, corporate\, eLearning\, animation\, games\, and audio drama. Earl has documented his personal methods to create easy-to-follow processes and exercises you can adopt to continually broaden your own toolbox of voice prints\, throughout your career. \nThis webinar offers a distinctive perspective\, which can open possibilities for a new\, promising way forward. Unlike many webinars\, this is not about improving one’s acting skills (unquestionably the most essential skill for voice “actors”). This is about embracing a detailed understanding and practice of your vocal mechanisms to build a richer toolbox of vocal characteristics you can draw on in support of your acting choices. Ultimately\, this is about introducing often-overlooked techniques\, which can help you be the right match for a broader range of genres\, styles\, and personalities; plus deliver more auditions\, that are closer to the specific performance specs. \nWho can benefit? VAs at any level\, in any genre. VAs who want a clear\, proven method for expanding their territory.

I’ve established a strong reputation as a voiceover agent among peers\, associates\, and other professionals.\nI began my career as a receptionist at SBV in October 2000. Within a year\, I became a scheduler/booth director and then worked my way up to the animation agent’s assistant. My journey took me to Osbrink\, where I was the head of the voiceover department.\nAt Solid Talent\, I served as head of all voiceover—commercial\, animation\, and video games— and built the department from the ground up.\nI then moved to Atlas Talent\, focusing on commercial voiceover. While I excelled in this area\, my true passion lies in animation and interactive games. This led me to Vox\, Inc.\, where I led the animation and video game department to new heights.\nMy career has been built on finding and developing actors who bring fresh\, funny\, and unique perspectives to each audition and job. I’ve worked hard to develop my career and love working with talent to elevate their careers.\nIn addition to my professional life\, I am also an avid snow skier and outdoor adventurer.
