"Each actor has a few key roles and they flip from being passengers and Gander citizens, back and forth, but you’re never confused because they really become these characters, flip, flip, flip, in one second, by using accents (kudos to Dialect Coach Joel Goldes), mannerisms, and the relationships they have. --Front Row Reviewers Utah
I was called in to teach an actor and a key background player several lines in a foreign language for an upcoming episode of CBS' Criminal Minds (I don't want to give away the plot by naming the language). The production had the lines translated into the foreign language, then I recorded a native speaker reciting the lines, which I then taught to the actor by phone. I went to their set the following day to coach the actor, as well as teaching the lines to a background player.
My past acting and directing experience uniquely qualifies me as a dialect coach: not only can I guide you in the subtleties of a new accent, I can also help you explore sound possibilities within the character's given circumstances.
I look forward to working with you.
