I am working with Danielle Pretsfelder Demchick, CSA & Elizabeth Hay (DPD Casting) on the Deaf led feature film (written/directed by Jevon Whetter and produced by his brother, Delbert Whetter) FLASH BEFORE THE BANG (link to deadline article embedded), based on a true story of a history-making high school track team. As one of the few casting professionals in this industry that identifies as Hard of Hearing (HoH), I could not be more excited to be working on a project that will make a significant impact for d/Deaf & HoH representation because of this team's dedication to authentic casting. It's a big project with a big Deaf-led team that also includes Matt Damon and Ben Affleck among its producers and Jessica Alba, Russell Harvard, and Daniel Durant attached in lead roles. In an effort to fulfill our authentic casting mission, I am reaching out to Helen Keller National Center for DeafBlind Youths and Adults-Rocky Mountain today because we are conducting a nationwide search, seeking performers of all skill levels with high-intermediate to high ASL fluency levels.

Seeking performers that fit the following character descriptions: 1.

We are in Paypal as a nonprofit, which is similar to being a business, which is how it needs to be done for tax reasons. If you want to offset the cost of the fees, you could pay a little more for your dues. But, unfortunately, the fees need to be paid to and collected by Paypal.

I'm introducing a whole new group of actors to audiobook narration and the framework that will give their voices more opportunity to express and be heard (woohoo!). I won't be sharing anything too new for current Adventurers, but if you've been enjoying the Audiobook Adventure, I would love for you to join us and share your experience towards the end of the class (about 75 - 90 minutes in - you?re welcome to join earlier in the call if it feels like a fit). There are two dates to choose from: * Saturday, June 10th at Noon ET / 9:00 a.m. PT ** YEP! That's tomorrow! ** * Monday, June 12th at 10:30 a.m ET / 7:30 a.m. PT Click here to grab a seat for the free class. And if you feel so moved, please share this FREE CLASS with any actor friends who you think could also benefit from a little more ease and creativity in their life and career!

Just curious, these free classes, there's a paid product/service invitation at the end? That's generally how these things work because The Global Actor is a company name. I narrate audiobooks myself. It's one possible income stream in a voiceover context and the least paid, in comparison to commercials, for instance. I prefer them for financing other, less profitable but more enjoyable projects like audiobooks. Cartoons/animations pay better than audiobooks but can be as labour intensive. Just my twopence worth, hee hee! Enjoy the classes, if you guys decide to attend. Just be aware that free isn't necessarily free, buying courses afterwards etc. Very best wishes, Sandra.

I apologize sincerely for not putting in a disclaimer of sorts. How well I know the catch to many of these free masterclasses. Now, having said that, if any of you do decide to take the masterclass and buy the course, it is a worthy investment if narration is what you are passionate about.

Hello Annie, Do you have an affiliate partnership with this person? Just curious, these free classes, there's a paid product/service invitation at the end? That's generally how these things work because The Global Actor is a company name. I narrate audiobooks myself. It's one possible income stream in a voiceover context and the least paid, in comparison to commercials, for instance. I prefer them for financing other, less profitable but more enjoyable projects like audiobooks. Cartoons/animations pay better than audiobooks but can be as labour intensive. Just my twopence worth, hee hee! Enjoy the classes, if you guys decide to attend. Just be aware that free isn't necessarily free, buying courses afterwards etc. Very best wishes, Sandra.

When I went to IU for undergrad the school purchased Dancing Dots software, which was very useful both for me to use in theory classes and for the DMA student they hired to create Braille scores for me. He took a few weeks to learn how to do it, but his work was absolutely fantastic and he could get things ready for me very, very quickly. Another thing to consider is whether you need help with reserving practice space. Each school is different and many of them use systems such as Asimut for people to book practice time. However that wasn't the case when I was at Juilliard and most of the time people ended up walking around looking through practice room windows, which isn't possible as a blind person. In that situation it was important for me to find a solution, rather than spending hours every week knocking on doors to see if rooms were empty or constantly asking others for help. Hope that helps!

Here are a few things I would add to give you some potential ideas. First, if you ever find yourself thinking you may need a reader, I would list it as an accommodation. Some schools are reluctant to hire one for you, because it can be expensive, but I found it was always helpful just in case, as you can?t always get those accessible documents in time. Secondly, consider anything you may need for a music theory/sight singing class. Braille music is probably already going to help you a lot, but I did find it helpful at the beginning to have the TA or someone like an aid to sit next to me and explain anything that the teacher was putting up on the board, in case I needed clarification. Might be worth requesting a potential assistant for those type of classes, even if you end up not needing it. Of course, that is a personal decision and you will figure out what works best for you. My last main thought for now is about ensembles. Do you need any extra accommodations for orchestra? If they require sightsinging in auditions, do you need to get that music ahead of time? I do also echo the part about practice room space, as that can get complicated. It?s not the end of the world to walk by listening and knock on a few doors, but if you?re able to have a designated hour or two each day, in a specific room, that you know you can always use, that can be really helpful. I?ll let you know if I think of more ideas! So excited for you! ~Katelyn MacIntyre, M.M. www.katelynmac.com www.facebook.com/KatelynMacMusic @KatelynMacMusic President, National Federation of the Blind Performing Arts Division > On Jun 20, 2023, at 7:15 PM, Julia LaGrand via Perform-Talk wrote: > > ?Hi all, I am going to start my first year of Conservatory this fall, and I?m wondering what accommodations other music students have found particularly helpful, besides extra time and accessible files.

That way, I also had a space where my reader could record stuff for me. Now at the other two schools, there was no need for me to have my own practice room because I could easily find one on my own. If the door was open, the room was available.
