THE PAUL ARMBRUSTER WORKSHOP:
The Paul Armbruster Workshop provides a place to develop your skills and get ready to compete in the field of voiceover. You'll have the opportunity to work with a variety of commercial copy both solo and combo, character and "straight". Students will sample and discuss demos from some of the top talent in the country, but the true thrust of the workshop will be lea
rning to take direction effectively and broadening the range of your own interpretative abilities. The final session includes a private consultation with the instructor and an assessment of your future in the industry. THE INSTRUCTOR:
