This program is for ages 3 to 6. All children must be accompanied by an adult.

Interested in learning how to make voice overs?

If you are, check out the two-hour program on how to make it in voice-overs that is being offered by the Newburyport Adult and Community Education program at Newburyport High School on Monday evening, June 7th.

Voice-overs are hot today!

You don’t have to be an actor to get voice-over work, but it certainly doesn’t hurt!

With such notable talent as James Earl Jones, Linda Hunt, and Donald Sutherland lending their voices to commercials, films, and videos, one would think that it would be next to impossible to break into this field. Not so!

In this class you’ll learn about an exciting new way to get around the competition and actually turn voice-overs into a thriving full or part-time business.

Liz Solar, a successful voice-over artist (Northwest Airlines, Fidelity Investments, Sony, etc.) will introduce students to the voice-over business as a whole. She will talk about the numerous opportunities, the income potential, and the all important demo and how to have it produced.

You’ll step up to the microphone to do some practice recording, and best of all, hear the results!
