I coached English actor Rupert Friend in a New Orleans accent and American actor Jessica Chastain in a South Carolina accent for the independent feature Jolene, based on the E.L. Doctorow short story, currently lensing in Arizona.
My past acting and directing experience uniquely qualifies me as a dialect coach: not only can I guide you in the subtleties of a new accent, I can also help you explore sound possibilities within the character's given circumstances.
I look forward to working with you.
