SYNOPSIS
Ready to ditch the announcer sound and modernize your commercial reads? Join acclaimed voice talent Donna Jay Fulks for a fast-paced fun workshop that will revolutionize your approach to commercial copy. Working with thirty second scripts, Donna will direct readers to experiment with tone, play with the given circumstances and explode imaginary boundaries in order to lift the words off the page in a way that is uniquely their own.
