VoiceWorx students 22 learn about dubbing

On the fourth session of VoiceWorx, the participants learned about the basics of dubbing under the one and only Danny “Ama” Mandia, the director behind a number of notable Tagalized cartoons like Peter Pan, Secret Garden, and Remi.

The said session was composed of two parts: the lecture and the hands-on dubbing exercises. For the lecture part, Mr. Mandia gave an introduction on dubbing. He also taught them how to create different characters using their voices as well as the difference between dubbing for anime and dubbing for real people.



Afterwards, these students had a chance to experience how to dub. They were asked to dub a scene taken from a certain Japanese animated series.

'Ama' has a new style

Mr. Danny Mandia, known as the “Ama” or the Father of dubbing, has a new approach in facilitating Voiceworx. Being the one who takes care of the introduction to dubbing part, he now wants more and earlier engagement of the participants in hands on dubbing.

This is unlike the past batches where there were no hands on dubbing exercises and just more of introduction to the dubbing itself plus some other exercises. Now, the participants are already given a chance to experience the real thing through mock dubbing.

This just shows that the instructors in Voiceworx do not stop in looking for ways to make the workshop even better and t make the participants more prepared. Voiceworx, in spite of its already long existence, is continuing to improve.
