Vocal Workshop Performance Skills – Melbourne

Vocal Workshop Performance Skills – Melbourne (CODE – 227A)

vocal

Perfect for high school students

With the emergence of the internet and mobile phones young people are slowly losing opportunities to interact with friends and acquaintances on a personal level. This can be to their detriment when applying for a part time job, attending an interview for a tertiary course or making a public speech. The art of clear, confident and meaningful public speaking will always be advantageous no matter how advanced technology becomes. A young person with these skills will always have the upper hand in the many situations that life has to offer.

Wha twe Can Offer Your Students

vocal

We are an experienced and passionate team of presenters with vast amounts of experience in vocal projection in regards to public speaking and singing. Some members of our team have a secondary teaching back ground and others have worked for many years teaching teenagers the art of singing.

We have four single day workshops available; however, all our workshops are designed specifically for individual clients. If the following ideas appeal to you or you can see how they could be altered to achieve the desired outcome for your students, we will work with you personally to design a workshop that addresses these needs.

Audition Magic!

You have a number of great vocalists at your school. They may be doing or planning to do VCE Music, group, solo or both. They may not be doing VCE music but still aspire to follow a career in singing and performing. You can see their talents but when they perform, they look uncomfortable and embarrassed. You know they will soon be attending auditions either for a band or a tertiary course and you don’t want their presentation and performance to let them down.

The team can help! Our presenters all have vast amounts of experience in auditions and performance. In just a single day we can turn shy little Casey into a performer who owns the stage. She will have experience in the use of stage equipment such as a microphone, stand and fold back wedge. Her style, confidence and charisma will make even the toughest critic realise her potential.

I Love Public Speaking

Graeme is a lovely boy. He has some really great ideas and shows many leadership qualities. Unfortunately he is quite shy, not very confident and every time he does an aural presentation in English he struggles to speak clearly and make eye contact with his audience. He’d be a great senior student leader but his poor ability to publicly present himself makes his teachers and peers think twice about nominating him. The team can help! In just a single day we can give Graeme, and all the other students like him, the tools required to confidently and purposefully speak in public. In fact, your students will be bursting at the seams to make their next public address!

It Takes Teams – The Singing Olympics

This workshop is specifically designed for a group of students (small or large) who you feel need to be unified and realise the strengths of all members of the group. The following scenario is an example of where it could be used. However, there are any number of situations this concept could be used in. You may even like to use this concept during a professional development day to unify your staff!!

You’ve picked your senior students or prefects for next year. You know they’ll do a great job but they don’t know each other very well. You really want to create a team of students who are united and prepared to work collaboratively. You want them to realise that they all need to contribute in order to be successful. At the same time you want them to learn some skills in public presentation and have a huge amount of fun!

The team can help! In just one day, we will create a team based competition that will create life long friendships, a unified team and be remembered for years to come!
