@DoorsSeparate @AbiN_Theatre @NatashaTripney @iian_network @NatashaRickman @RadskiNatasha @WorksWithWords @Oldsocky @flipthelights @ABlindBitofDiff @wilshaw3 That we continue to invest and engage with outreach and community work. Theatre and theatre(s) do so much more than "put on shows".

We are deeply saddened to hear this news. Kristin launched the NCVM almost four years ago and her work, presence and intellect will leave a massive hole in voice and theatre industry. Rest in Peace.

[Kristin Linklater Voice Centre, Orkney @LinklaterVoice]

The family and friends of Kristin Linklater are sad to announce her death at the age of 84 at Housegarth, Quoyloo, Orkney on Friday 5th June. An inspirational writer, teacher of voice and Shakespeare, she helped people from all walks of life to free their natural voice.

What about playing "status" games in your acting classes but using camera angles and distances from the microphone to show high + low statuses.

[Northern Centre for Voice & Movement @northcenvm]

Creative Zoom(ing)? What ideas do you have for making online learning a creative space?

[Northern Centre for Voice & Movement @northcenvm]

This was amazing - lots of talk about the connection between the body + voice :)

[Northern Centre for Voice & Movement @northcenvm]

I think we can take this into our everyday teaching too :)

[Being in Voice @BeinginVoice]

@northcenvm Take your time, in other words, go deeper with less.

[Northern Centre for Voice & Movement @northcenvm]

Yes! The secret is snacks and exercise.

[Northern Centre for Voice & Movement @northcenvm]

This is really great advice. Just transferring your work doesn't always work :)

[onurorkut @onurorkut]

@northcenvm Think beyond transferring 'teaching to in front of the camera'. Think about creating a more 3D approach to create learning by designing the whole experience for the learner.

[Northern Centre for Voice & Movement @northcenvm]

Yes! We have lots of love the the emojis

[Nic Redman @NicRedmanVoice]

@northcenvm Stretching before, during and after. Hydrating. Use the breakout rooms if on zoom, they’re ace fun! And don’t be afraid of keeping it physical. Encourage people to engage with the clap/thumbs up emoji too!

[Northern Centre for Voice & Movement @northcenvm]

Great ideas ... and mini rolls will def be on the next shopping list

[Northern Centre for Voice & Movement @northcenvm]

So what are everyone's top tips for teaching online?

[Northern Centre for Voice & Movement @northcenvm]

Voice and Movement people reach out...

[Catt Lyons @CattMay]

I'm on the hunt again...

Doing some general research into theatre creatives/designers based in the North West region, emerging or experienced.

Please do share and pass on.
Let's keep connected

You can do it! :)

[Northern Centre for Voice & Movement @northcenvm]

Have you all told your neighbours that you're going to be teaching voice and movement classes from your bedroom yet?

[Northern Centre for Voice & Movement @northcenvm]

Hope everyone is staying motivated :)

DRAMA SCHOOL STUDENTS: Those who are about to graduate and had their showcases cancelled - if you tweet me your showreel, or record yourself performing a song / speech on YouTube - i'll retweet them and put all links on my channel for people in the business to see. #dear
