are you happy with how expressive your voice is, or do you wish you could sound as charismatic as...?

Question: ...your favourite actor, and have as rich a voice? do you think your voice is just what you grew up with and its set in stone......or do you think you can mould it into whatever you want it to be like?

Answer: Voice is a strange thing. It's all relative. Most people tell me that I have an amazing voice, so much so that I'm able to pay my bills by working as a voice coach when I'm not acting. But I've always wanted to have a bassier tone to my voice like Ian McKellen. Your voice is not set in stone by any stretch of the imagination. Your voice can be almost anything you want it to be it just takes lots and lots of training, a little patience and the help of a good voice coach to point you in the right direction. But I've found that it's always best to learn to like your own voice. Train it so that it can be the best it possibly can but always make sure it's still your voice. It's never wise to copy someone else in any form of art, because then it's a imitation not an innovation. Your voice is a part of who you are, embrace it and never be shy of using it.
