- čas přidán 21. 08. 2024
- This is the first of four films demonstrating how to warm up your voice, focusing on breathing exercises. Breathing exercises are an essential start to any vocal warm-up; they organise the breathing muscles, extend the capacity of the voice and give a sense of the breath very deep inside the body. Jeannette Nelson is the Head of Voice at the National Theatre.

This is very helpful not only for acting, it helps singing too. Thanks.
Thank you for all your comments and I hope you find the rest of our collection on Voice as helpful and informative.
This video has done more for me in 6 minutes than what's taken me several years of trying to figure out. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
It feels like a privilege to get the opportunity to see these moments!these are some of the best coaches in the world…
my theater teacher made me do this during quarantine, my parents think i am mentally insane, but its fun nonetheless :)
I watched this last night and during my practice time today- I put it to trial- I finally got the support and a much better tonal quality that I've been desperately needing.
my drama teacher told me to watch this during corona break.

Thank you for your comment.
It is recommended that you take your time when undertaking these exercises but otherwise you should continue as shown in the videos.
Thank you for your comment and hope you continue to enjoy the collection.

Fabulous stuff. Thanks for sharing.
One question - are there any exercises here that would need to be approached with a little more care with less (physically) experienced actors?
This is really helpful, I will certainly be directing students to watch and join in with this video
no no no do not do that
@@jayysxe1870 lmao
Here for drama assignment during COVID!
Are they breathing through the nose or mouth while their in that squat? Is there a rule on how to intake the breath, in nose and out mouth?
Love from India kerala
Does this help your regular voice? And, will it fix talking through your nose?
+Sabataj All of these exercises are good for your voice generally, and allows you to use your voice to its full potential. I wouldn't think of 'fixing' a nasal voice so much as 'balancing' it. Look at exercise video #3 for that. Bringing your voice 'forward' prevents relying too much on a nasal quality, should be what you're looking for :)
@@Halibut118 while your singing do you hold your breath or talk while expanding your chest
Hi there, I'm not completely sure what you're asking. While you are controlling your breath when singing, you are still 'breathing out' technically or else no sound will come out. In the same way you naturally will expend as much breath as you need when speaking a sentence in conversation, you develop the same instinct for singing phrases, breathing in-between.
When speaking, you will be expending breath, too, so your chest will naturally contract unless you physically resist it and only speak 'from the abdominals'.
Does this answer your questions?
very helpful for the girls.
i do all the exersizes every day
When they bend forward they look like they are pooping 🤦🏼♀️
really helped me let out a fart thank you

looks like a workshop for pregnant people
You shouldn't joke. I actually became pregnant after watching this. I wasn't even doing the exercises. But he was a healthy child and I managed to get good money for him. So in the end all okay thanks you.
PEOPLE!! This is NOT Jeanette Wilson!!! The instructor on screen is KRISTIN LINKLATER, NOT JEANETTE WILSON.
Give thanks where it is due.
Thnx
Oh for heaven sake, Kyle, this most certainly IS NOT Kristin Linklater. First of all, it is so arrogant to presume NT doesn't know who their head of voice is or what she looks like. And secondly, a quick search for Kristin Linklater will ping back a few videos that make it abundantly clear that not only do these two have completely different voices and appearance, but that you failed to do any research before making your very wrong assertion.
Definitely not Kristin Linklater. I have been in class with her. She does use many of the same techniques, though. The screen says this is Jeannette Nelson, head of voice and speech at the National Theatre in London. I would probably trust that. They do wonderful work there!
Whose here cuz of Howland 😂
