Well, playing any role needs truth, not just the right accent, or it will just look amateur, so if you're a professional actor and want help you could come to me for coaching, or go to somebody else, but the accent is not key, I promise you, not unless you know how to act. I rarely see messages here, and am better contacted IF you need to do so, with the "Contact' page on my website www.windsor-Cunningham.com but all I'm saying is that you should try things out with a friend, director or coach, and without my meaning to sound rude, get the truth of the role, as an accent can be got by an amateur, and serious job needs study.

I'm only a novice actor with minimal coaching and experience but I'm willing to learn. I ultimately want to break into NYC puppetry theater and acting is an indispensable skill for that sort of thing. I have trained under Sofia Baltar for acting at Bornstar Studios in NYC and I learned the basics of direct manipulation puppetry from Kevin Augustine at Lonewolf Tribe in Brooklyn but I am looking for more. I like your videos on "natural acting" and "accepting that this is the case." It's something I used to do when I was younger without realizing it (mostly to get out of trouble or just to see if I can convince people of what I was pretending to be in order to satisfy my curiosity... I literally got jobs where I had no idea what I was doing by being so convincing and found myself actually figuring out how to work those jobs as I went along because of how well I convinced myself, getting by because I convincingly asked for accommodations as if I could do those jobs if that's all I had. I stopped doing this and blocked it out of my mind because I started doing it all of the time and it seemed like I was losing my identity and just being this void that can impersonate anything), but in my older years I want to reconnect with it and that's mostly what I'm looking for. However, this time I'll put it back in its box and take it out only when I need it.

Remember that it's what you are saying that count. Nobody is impressed by my New England accent, they just assume I'm from New England, and so what, so are 10 million other people and nobody admires them for their accent - what counts is if they are clear about what they are saying and if speak with some truth. Every one of those 10 million N.E.'s makes some strange sound in their accent sometimes, and nobody is upset by it, what matters (and what nails voice-over jobs) is truth. Sorry, I guess you know that, but maybe worth saying. Best wishes for your classes, John Windsor-Cunningham

With voice-acting the trick is to spend time on doing what is natural to you, speaking your own accent, and doing it clearly and with variety and friendliness. Accents are not so important as there are a thousand British actors getting most of the British voice-work here. But there are exceptions, so maybe try anything, but the main thing is to study your lines so that you're saying them as if you had written them . John Windsor-Cunningham
