Vocal Warm-Up | #4 Articulation | National Theatre

My mom walked in and made a solemn face and left.

Thank you for all of your comments and I hope you find the rest of our collection on Voice as helpful and informative.

I use these warmups (1 - 4) before each performance of Henry V. They are exceptionally helpful!

Jeannette Nelson is a national treasure, although I reside in another nation. Her ease of education is appreciated worldwide, thanks to these videos.

This is an amazing tool.  I am an actor and incorporate it with my voice work.  So many comments of ignorance on this.   People making jokes, commenting on testosterone levels, and saying not to do this.  But they're ignorant comments.  People who have no knowledge on Biomechanics or the human voice. They know nothing about the diaphragm, the chest and head resonators, the soft palate,  stretching of the throat muscles,  the facial mask etc.   They ignore educating themselves, so they comment out of ignorance. Voice exercises are truly valuable.  They're is a reason why singers and Broadway actors who have to have resonance and carry it to the back row, do exercises like these.  It works.  Like anything else, if you exercise it, it strengthens.  So, I encourage you to try it CONSISTENTLY so you can truly  make an honest opinion for yourself.  Instead of reading negative criticism of lazy, judgmental, ignorant people who most likely never even took a moment to actually  see if it works.  :)  

Really excellent series of videos. Thank you!

Thank you for your comment and hope you continue to enjoy them as we publish new content in the future.

This is awesome. Thank you so much!

Thank you for posting these exercises. I've started doing them every day and it's made a difference it only two weeks!

God bless you, Mrs. Jeannette Nelson!!! It is so so helpful for actors! Thank you very much! I use your four videos "Vocal warm-up"  every day and every day is my voice better and better :-) Thank you! 

Thank you for these videos. Both the teacher and the actors are very talented, down to earth. The videos are of enormous help! 1,00000000000000 thank you.

Thank you sooo very very much for these videos! You have saved me from harming myself because I have no formal voice training. I sing in a hard rock band and this has helped me tremendously. Bless you for posting these exercises. :)

This really helps me. I'm working on becoming an actor myself.

Great to hear all the positive feedback. Make sure you subcribe to our channel for updates.

Thank you for these exercises ❤

Thank you for your excellent videos!

THIS IS AMAZING ......ITS GOLD ....LOVE SOME MORE INSIGHTS PLEASE

I use the warmups before all my acting gigs, so helpful! 

Just did this before my theater debut for opening night in God of Carnage! Thanks so much for the guidance.

I'm a singer/songwriter and although this is aimed at acting vocals etc, I've found it very helpful with opening up my vocals as I do get very tense at gigs while I'm playing guitar Thanks for sharing.
