Diaphragmatic breathing
We will start experimenting with diaphragmatic breathing in class. This will be our first step into projecting our voices. This video is a great compilation of techniques, albeit the spelling is atrocious.
Performance Rubric and Homework
Since you will be lip syncing, the voice space will not apply to the Pop Star Performances.
Make sure you pick a song that will best show your star's on stage personality. Rehearse! Try to get in front of an audience so you'll be better prepared on what to expect. If you can't find an audience, the mirror is your friend. Ask yourself:
Am I applying my research to my actions?
Is there consistency to my movements?
Am I prepared for the parts of the song with no singing?
What would the real pop star do? WWPSD *What Would Pop Star Do*
Be sure you have burned a CD with a "friendly" version of the song you've chosen. Check it for any obscene language. (That includes imagery!) Students who do not follow this rule will receive a Z for their performance grade.
Break a Leg!
