WORKSHOPS ARE CHANGING!
Hello everyone. Workshops are back...but REVAMPED!
(Before we get into that: a sneaky little heads up...keep an eye on the @letschataccents IG account tomorrow! At NOON PST I’ll be posting the upcoming workshop schedule and info for a neat little GIVEAWAY. Grand prize: 3 free workshops of your choice!)
Workshops are changing...why?? My number one goal is to be as helpful as I can to you all in your accent explorations, and so I’m constantly researching, studying and trying figure out ways to improve on what we do - for maximum benefit!
With that in mind, I’m doing away with the hour long workshop format and moving to 2 sessions per workshop (spaced out over 2 weeks) with 2 hours in each session - aka: a 4 hour deep dive into the sounds of a particular region!
Interested in what each session will cover? Check out the vid ⬆️⬆️
Can’t wait to jump back in - see you online!
PS: TIME ZONE CONVERSION for anyone who needs it, noon (12pm) PST:
🇿🇦 10pm in South Africa
🇬🇧 8pm in England
🗽 3pm in New York

"Is that stone worth your life?" Another favorite - this warrior priestess sword fight with a broadsword whose leather hilt was tailor-made for me by none other than the dreaded crusader and leather-master himself, Schno Mozingo. - Young Elaria embarks on a perilous rite-of-passage in which she must return a sacred stone to its place of rest; a journey that brings her ever closer to a deadly re...

SOPHIE - "STRAWBERRIES IN JANUARY" by Rona Munro || Scottish Accent || Monologue
zhlédnutí 2,6KPřed 4 lety
A monologue from Strawberries in January - Rona Munro's version of Evelyne de la Cheneliére's 1999 play, Des Fraises en Janvier. The play was originally written in Quebec French, but Rona Munro created her version with Scottish characters in mind, so I decided to have some fun with one of my all-time FAVOURITE accents - a wee bit of Scottish.

A scene from the miniseries WACO - Michelle Jones, a young woman married to David Koresh, must pretend to wed a friend to protect her cult and its leader.

    Love it when he realizes he finally had the legacy he always sought. A young girl far away telling the story of how he outsmarted Flint. And it’s great how he refuses to let the girl talk so bad about Vane. It’s funny to think about how similar these Pirates were to America’s founding fathers. Sure they committed crimes but a lot of their hatred for England and belief in freedom was very similar. And the Founding Fathers committed atrocities like tarring and feathering tax collectors. The real difference between them? One group won their war, the other didn’t. The ones that won got to the write history from their perspective. Had England beaten the colonies, we would know men like Washington, Jefferson, etc as nothing more than rebellious traitors, murderers, and criminals who didn’t like paying taxes.

    "The truth isn't nearly as interesting." I feel like this is society - always wanting these epic shows with cool stunts and lavish costuming. And a few good people try to present history - any era of it - to an audience who is not listening

  • @heyskipj
    @heyskipj Před rokem

    Love that the producers/writers took time to craft and include this scene in the series. Pairs well with Flint's Dragon speech. And that the pirates knew that their biggest weapon was fear. The only fault is at the end when Jack tells the young lady to "read a book." I get the sentiment but Woods-Rodgers already told him his book was only letting people know what he wanted them to know. I think if Jack co-opted that line it would have landed better. Game recognizing game.

  • @LukeKetchum7003

    I think this was good for Jack to express whatever good was left in Charles Vane. He did die saving his life after all. And I'm pretty sure Lydia is Eleanor's cousin.

    "The truth isn’t nearly as interesting” MAN I wanted so bad for him to say "It scarcely is..." and slowly walk away. "Scarcely" to mean "Rarely" but also sounding like "Scarily" making "the truth" seem so much more chilling, because while it's a horrifying thought to believe that Charles Vain butchered men and boiled them in a stew, the reality of Charles Vains life, and all pirates lives for that matter, is actually so much more horrific than the cannibalistic rumors could ever be. GOD I miss this damn show!

  • @AleksAvramJeff
    @AleksAvramJeff Před rokem

    Underrated moment for the whole character of Calico, he wanted the fame and glory while others were driven by different motives and yet he gets annoyed when he realizes that he won't really ever get the idealistic fame that he seeks. Deep down he knew that the real idealist was Charles Vane and that's why he was so ready to talk highly about him.

    Well, Tommy has proposed to me again. Tommy really does nothing but propose to me. He proposed to me last night in the music-room, when I was quite unprotected, as there was an elaborate trio going on. I didn't dare to make the smallest repartee, I need hardly tell you. If I had, it would have stopped the music at once. Musical people are so absurdly unreasonable. They always want one to be perfectly dumb at the very moment when one is longing to be absolutely deaf. Then he proposed to me in broad daylight this morning, in front of that dreadful statue of Achilles. Really, the things that go on in front of that work of art are quite appalling. The police should interfere. At luncheon I saw by the glare in his eye that he was going to propose again, and I just managed to check him in time by assuring him that I was a bimetallist. Fortunately I don't know what bimetallism means. And I don't believe anybody else does either. But the observation crushed Tommy for ten minutes. He looked quite shocked. And then Tommy is so annoying in the way he proposes. If he proposed at the top of his voice, I should not mind so much. That might produce some effect on the public. But he does it in a horrid confidential way. When Tommy wants to be romantic he talks to one just like a doctor. I am very fond of Tommy, but his methods of proposing are quite out of date. I wish, Gertrude, you would speak to him, and tell him that once a week is quite often enough to propose to any one, and that it should always be done in a manner that attracts some attention.
