I have been struggling a lot of my voice usage in our acting class. I know my voice is strong and resonant, but too often I get caught up in the ''feeling'' of my voice. My character, Sorin, was booming around the stage with the fury and a timbre of a Henry V.
I've noticed, that when I don't have specific actions and objectives, I tend to push my voice out. Imagine hitting a punching bag over and over again... that's what my voice feels like when I'm not working for anything. It's supported... but it's definitely not connected.
In the clown run I was focused on "playing" with vocal qualities. I found a lot of interesting choices that are to be made. Changing my voice also allowed me to emphasize different words that changed my intention on several lines.
The more choices the better!
