Class Reviews:

For the past year, Lori has been my teacher, mentor, friend and guide in my voiceover adventure. Her amazing ability to challenge, encourage and pull from every student, their very best performance is an incredible gift. With her guidance and help, I have been able to reach my goal of delivering marketable reads and creating income within my first year in voiceover work. If you have similar goals, let Lori show you the way. You wont find a better guide.
– Chris "Spanky" Spangenberg

Lori's classes are intimate, each actor gets the attention they deserve. She approaches each actor based upon what that actor brings to the table, no generic direction given to all the the actors. You can tell that Lori loves to teach, it's about helping her students, not about her ego. What more could you ask for in a teacher?"
– Mariko Ballentine/ Mariko Ballentine Casting

You know you are working with a phenomenal teacher when you listen back to your first take, then hear how it drastically improves in later takes with Lori's dead-on direction. She will get the most out of your voice and prepare you for this ultra-competitive business.
– Chris Tergliafera

Lori is a gift. She has the rare and precious ability to work with people as individuals. Where so many other "teachers" just pull from an old bag of tricks, Lori works differently and tirelessly with each student based on their particular strengths and weaknesses behind the mic. I always knew I could rely on Lori to lovingly tell it to me straight so that I knew exactly what I needed to do to improve; and I did. Once I was ready, I also recorded my demo with Lori. I'm now choosing between interested agents, thanks to Lori!
– Alyson Kulavis

My booking ratio has spiked since enrolling in your class, by the way. COINCIDENCE??? ...I think not. I love your class!
– Brian T. Delaney

Thank you Lori. It is a rarity in our current Hollywood to have an opportunity to enjoy the presence of such a giving individual. Your time spent with the members of The Actor's Network was highly effective, well-received, extremely helpful, and deeply appreciated. If you would ever like to speak again just give us a jingle.
– Kevin E. West- President of The Actor's Network

Lori Tritel is one of a kind. Her teaching process causes you to dig deep within, to explore yourself, to discover talent and abilities you never knew you had, and to find places you never dreamed existed. You end up with so much more than you thought you came for!

F.A.Q.'s:

Q: What's the skill level of the students?
A: Before every class, I cast different scripts for each individual student, based on their skill level, and their voice print. Each student is directed on an individual basis, and skill levels vary. I have students who work full time as VO actors, and students who want to be working more as VO actors. Each student's uniqueness contributes to the class as a whole. My intention is that you learn as much from watching other participants being directed as you do when you're behind the mic.

Q: I'm a working on camera actor, but I can't seem to book any voiceover auditions. Why is that?!
A: It's hard to make the transition from on camera/stage acting to voice acting. There are critical technical differences you may be ignoring. Voice acting is taking all of your on camera choices and condensing them into 60 seconds or less, without sacrificing the integrity of your read. There are other issues as well, such as creating a scene through audio only, sentence balancing, and knowing who your market is, which can determine what kind of read you choose to do.

Q: Will I get a demo after taking the class?
A: Although your class work is downloadable from your computer, I do not recommend that you use it on your demo. Class work includes working on weak links, exploring new voice pitches and pacing, and taking risks. A demo should be nothing but the best of your reads. It must be competitive, professional, and compelling. I strongly encourage you to check out what professional demos sound like at: www.voicebank.net I produce demos on a regular basis for actors who are currently reading copy at a competitive level.

Q: Will I get an agent from taking the class?
A: I am happy to report that the answer to that could be yes. Because I am also a working voice actor, I am able to extend invitations to VO agents to come observe the class. As a result, several of my students have auditioned and been signed for representation.

Q: Will I get VO work from taking the class?
A: Getting work is a combination of talent, heart, motivation, and above all, our belief system. I have a saying, "Luck is when an opportunity is staring you in the face, and you acknowledge it." My other saying is, "when I'm not working, I'm working on working." I have many students who are producers and writers in the entertainment industry, and hire fellow students from our class. I also refer students frequently to producers who come to me seeking VO talent with specific voice characteristics. I believe that any time you stir up the pot, you get results, and not always from the place you stirred. Whenever I "stir the pot", by taking a class, updating my web site, experimenting with new voices, etc., I inevitably get a call for a booking. So yes, taking the class will get you work if you are working on yourself, if you're devoting an abundance of effort and time, and if you are open to the possibilities. Taking the class will expand your choices, provide new ideas about how to find work, and prepare you for the opportunities that will arrive. The harder you work, the luckier you get!

Q: Most voiceover classes cost $500 to $700. Why is this class priced lower?
A: Every class I teach has returning students. I make it affordable so you can return and continue the momentum you achieve. For me, teaching is not about the money. It's about passion and fulfillment, and the opportunity to meet some pretty incredible people in the process.
