How does auditioning for the stage and screen look like in today's post-pandemic era?Now, casting directors prefer reviewing “self-tapes” or pre-recorded videos that showcase a performer's acting or singing talents during the initial audition process. It's a major shift from the days when actors had to meet in person and perform live.But according to vocal coach Bob Marks, this break with tradition is opening many opportunities for performers who no longer need to travel across the country to audition for their dream roles. That said, creating an excellent self-tape and leveraging the power of online casting takes skill — which is why Bob now coaches performers on how to produce the type of self-tape that not only showcases their skills but also helps them stand out from thousands of other auditions.In this episode, you'll learn:(7:11) How networking enabled Bob to build a successful career as a vocal coach(13:58) The advantages of using self-tapes in auditions(15:49) How to appear professional when creating self-tapes for auditions(19:11) The number of songs an actor should have ready when auditioning — and how to choose an appropriate song for an audition(20:25) How to pick out a 90-second cut out of a song to include for your self-tape audition (23:25) The songs you don't want to pick for your audition (which many other singers often overuse) (29:37) How Bob helps prioritize and organize material when a performer needs to make and submit a self-tape right away(32:34) Why the self-tape is here to stay — and why that's a good thing for singers, actors, and casting directors(33:56) How self-tapes can open the door for performers not based in New York and London (35:02) How online learning is changing the way voice coaches teach, and how singing teachers need to adapt to such changes(45:00) How self-tapes are being used for marketing(50:00) The benefits of being able to email self-tapes vs. traveling to auditions(52:10) How casting practices both limit and increase opportunities for performersIf you'd like Bob to help you with your voice and auditioning technique, contact him via his website.Bob's book, “88 Keys to Successful Singing Performances: Audition Advice from One of America's Top Vocal Coaches” can be purchased on Amazon.Download Bob's IVA webinar, “Keys to Audition Success with Bob Marks” which covers how to prepare for your audition, build confidence, choose your music, and work with accompanists.We've got many other exciting guests lined up for this season's Vocal Advancement Podcast.

Co-authors Lydia Hart and Stephen King are back on the podcast to talk about their recently published book, ‘Help! I've Got a Voice Problem'. A book which should belong on every singer and voice user's bookshelf as well as on display in the voice teacher's studio; so that everyone has the opportunity to understand how voice problems can occur.   KEY TAKEAWAYS Lydia and Stephen wrote this book for the reader, that's what's different about this book. They didn't want to write another book about voice, they wanted to write all the things that had never been written for all the people out there who are experiencing a voice problem, where those people will have lots of questions. From their work with the NHS and the Voice Care Centre Lydia and Stephen discovered that people with voice issues felt a real lack of empathy right from seeing their GP to diagnosis and if they're lucky a referral to a speech therapist. They're not seeing a doctor that has an understanding or sympathy for somebody that's a professional voice user. There's not just the issue with the voice itself that the book addresses, but also the emotions people may be feeling and the fears they have. In the medical or diagnostic world people have started to refer to the body as a machine and not as a living thing. We are not machines and when being treated should be thought of as what we are, people with emotions.   BEST MOMENTS ‘The book is dedicated to everyone without a voice' ‘When framing the journey of voice through a biopsychosocial perspective, all of those questions become clearer' ‘I'm fairly confident that the stuff that we have committed to paper has an almost universal truth about it'   EPISODE RESOURCES Guest Website: voicecarecentre.co.uk Social Media: @lydiahartvoice Relevant Links & Mentions: Stewart Harris: https://stewartharrisdesigns.myportfolio.com/ Sing Like Never Before by Justin Stoney with illustrations by Mark Pate: https://singlikeneverbefore.com/ VoiceWork: Art and Science in Changing Voices by Christina Shewell Lydia Flock: https://www.flockstars.com/ Singing Teachers Talk Podcast - Ep. 32 The Bio-Psycho-Social Model with Stephen King: https://open.spotify.com/episode/4R13bvilWjwQnd9WOfTiVc?si=f2b9489b9e914317 Singing Teachers Talk Podcast - Ep. 58 Understanding the Speaking Voice with Lydia Hart: https://open.spotify.com/episode/5q4JLR8tByssABbUeVNk7F?si=cc1553bd79f54f8c Singing Teachers Talk Podcast: Ep. 88 What can be Learned from Teaching 100,000 lessons with Bob Marks: https://open.spotify.com/episode/5Nc7qa6VxhYALuamxwgKZB?si=a37c1d39d8a64a24 Help!

She works with people experiencing difficulties with their speaking or singing voice, or other throat symptoms. Lydia is known for being vibrant, caring and sensitive, taking time to hold a holistic space for clients to explore and improve their symptoms. Lydia is also a singer, and voice therapy – which ultimately means working with a person, not a diagnosis – is a true vocation for her. Alongside her work at Voice Care Centre, Lydia works for the NHS including the Joint Voice Clinic at Wexham Park Hospital, with leading laryngologist Declan Costello. This involves assessment and management of a range of voice disorders, from muscle tension dysphonia to vocal cord paralysis, and her clinical expertise is constantly expanding. Lydia is dedicated to developing her knowledge and experience in fields outside of Speech and Language Therapy, in order to provide truly holistic, biopsychosocial care. She is currently undertaking a Diploma in Hypnotherapy with Chrysalis Courses, and has trained in manual therapy with Stephen King and most recently Walt Fritz. She is experienced in breath work, including training in Buteyko Breathing Method, and is also undertaking training in Reiki. Lydia incorporates holistic health and wellness into her own life, through natural movement including rock climbing and running, minimal footwear, meditation, breath work and cold water exposure.   Stephen King: As a thought leader in the voice health sector, Stephen has been responsible for creating the Voice Care model in the UK and sat at the helm of disseminating the core ideas around Biopsychosocial philosophy. As a Co – Founder of the not for profit Vocal Health Education, he has overseen the education of over 2,000 externally accredited Vocal Health First Aiders and several industry leading Voice Rehabilitation Specialists. As an author, Stephen has co-written Help! I've Got A Voice Problem, with further academic articles published in peer reviewed journals. Within his role as a manual therapy educator, Stephen has delivered masterclasses and seminars across Europe, China and Japan, as well as having written and delivered the UK's only 9 day intensive vocal massage training qualification. Stephen currently sits as the Director of London's award winning, multidisciplinary Voice Care Centre, where he still occasionally gives treatments to people with voice problems seeking biopsychosocial management of their ongoing issues.  The Centre for Mental Wellness is Stephen's latest venture, where he intends to build an online, multidisciplinary, evidence based and relational therapy platform to help performing artists in times of mental ill health.   ABOUT THE PODCAST   BAST Training is here to help singers gain the knowledge, skills and understanding required to be a great singing teacher.

Keas says the problem seems to have gotten worse in recent years but isn't a new one. He illustrates with the story of Tycho Brahe and Johannes Kepler.

Astrology Bytes with Theresa Reed

Episode 53: Interception is not just some sci-fi DiCaprio movie (although that movie is cool).  In astrology, an interception happens when you have a house larger than 30 degrees and an entire sign becomes part of that house. When viewing an astrology chart, you’ll notice that one sign seems to float in the middle of a house - that sign is intercepted. If a planet is in the intercepted sign in that house, it’s intercepted too. Interception always happens in pairs - if one sign is intercepted, the sign directly across from it will be intercepted too. In this episode, we'll cover what interception is and how you might interpret it. Sites mentioned in this episode include Llewellyn and Bob Marks Astrology. Book mentioned in this episode is How to Get More Love, Money, and Success by Traveling on Your Birthday by Bob Marks.

Addressing one of today's most acclaimed technological frontiers, Michael Medved and professor of electrical and computer engineering Robert Marks discuss the limits of artificial intelligence. They begin with definitions — What is a computer? What is an algorithm? — before tackling some pervasive media myths. Can a computer innovate or only imitate? Can computers now really do anything different from the Turing Machine, devised as a model by Alan Turing in the 1930s? Could a computer be programmed to interact with humans like the sinister HAL 9000 in 2001: A Space Odyssey? The answer is yes, says Bob Marks, and whatever flaws such a machine displayed would be the faults inadvertently woven into it by its human programmers.
