Every tool, from sensory tasks to acoustic fieldwork, is custom-designed to match the director’s vision and the actor's psychological safety.
The work begins long before the sessions.
From the moment we agree to collaborate, I open a space that invites connection, often through written words, sensory prompts, or symbolic anchors sent in advance.
These are not decorative. They help the actor prepare emotionally, and begin anchoring the character in something tangible.
🜂
Once the project is confirmed and the director’s vision is clear, I start designing the process, based on the role’s needs, the actor’s vocal patterns, and the emotional trajectory of the script.
We meet remotely first. These first sessions help build trust, identify vocal habits, explore tensions, and sketch the vocal identity of the character, both in sound and in silence. Together, we begin the shift from the actor’s voice to the character’s.
🜄
Then comes the in-person immersion. Over a few days, we craft the role’s voice from the inside out. Each project is unique, built around the character's emotional journey, the director’s vision, and the actor’s personal process. Sessions may include:
- Targeted vocal training based on the emotional arc of the role
- Symbolic or sensory tasks designed to access specific vocal textures: writing, walking, re-enacting memories, listening in the dark...
- Unusual setups: an old camcorder, a planetarium visit, a risk-taking task... all in service of the role.
- Guided improvisations, scripted or unscripted, in and out of character
- Quiet work, sometimes outdoors or off-site, to shift state and root the voice in experience
- Creative tech use: from audio layering to advanced acoustic feedback tools, when relevant to the story.
This second step is difficult to describe because it is highly project-specific.
🜃
After the immersion, the voice is there, but it still needs holding. Before and, if needed, during filming, I remain available remotely to support the continuity of the vocal identity we’ve built. This may include:
- Specific scene rehearsals
- Adjustments when new scenes are added or rewritten
- Reminders of emotional or vocal anchors when the timeline is shot out of order
- Light vocal recalibration if fatigue sets in
- Revisiting a moment, a sound, a symbol we crafted together
The goal is not to redo the work, but to keep it intact.To let the voice evolve with the shoot, while staying true to its origin.
🜁
Once filming ends, we need vocal/psychological decompression and post-production transition: step out of the character’s voice and return to the actor's. This final session helps the actor separate their own patterns from those they embodied, especially when the role was intense, traumatic, or deeply transformative.

Every moment is crafted to support one goal: a voice that feels lived, not performed.
Productions that work with me can expect actors who arrive on set vocally grounded, emotionally clear, and able to inhabit the role’s voice, with presence, precision, and continuity. The actor’s mental health is always a priority. No method is ever pushed at the cost of safety.
