Zoom: ACCENTS ON ACTORS - 4 Week Online Class with PAUL LIBERTI, Voice Director and Casting Director

Thursday, October 9, 2025, 6:30pm ET / 3:30pm PT

6:30pm - 10pm. Accent On Actors is a focused, 4-week accent course created to give actors the tools to perform a wide range of accents confidently and authentically for Audio Book Narrators, Animation and Video Game Actors, and On-Camera, Film, TV, and Stage actors as well.

Over four weeks, students will review the important British accents each week and then move on to other world accents, and finish with practice work in each accent.

Idiolects (accents based on students) are also explored as a part of every session to keep your accents more character-specific for auditions and bookings. 

This course is interactive with a focus on acting performance and accent application.

Students will also receive an Accent Workbook with Exercises and Instructions from class to better prepare them for auditions and bookings.

You'll learn to create dialects quickly with authenticity, layering accents, adding lilts, and a focus on accent rhythm changes.

Don't miss this exciting 4-week class!

The accents covered may include:

Week 1 - English/Cockney/Non-descript European

Week 2 - German/ Russian/Ukrainian

Week 3 - Irish/Italian/French

Week 4 - New York/ American South

"Great class. Great teacher. Great fellow students." -Claudia Stoy

"This was a great class. We learned a different accent every week. The way Paul breaks down the accents is very effective and clear." -Clare Gillies

"Paul is the greatest strength of his classes. The way he works with and nurtures his students is remarkable and the syllabus he created for this class demystifies the material and makes it easier for any student to learn." -Susan Cohen DeStefano

"Paul obviously put a lot of work into the book and the classes are very organized." -Jami Simon

"It was great working with you again these past 5 weeks! The class was a lot of fun and helpful, and I would definitely be interested in Part 2 in the future. Simply put, this was a fun and wonderful class. I would highly recommend it to anyone pursuing acting or character voice-over. I felt the phonetics and use of lilts were key to picking up the accent easier, and the scripts were a good practice. Thank you, Paul, for all your tips and tricks and for always being so helpful!" -Alexandra T.

"Just wanted to say a big 'THX U' to you for all you taught me in your V/O classes. The V/O I did today I felt pleased that I'd given them what they asked for, that I didn't require a lot of redirection and when they asked for multiple takes, I was able to fulfill this request. And, I owe it all to your amazing classes that gave me the skills needed to be a successful V/O artist! I feel prepared with a skill set that will help me succeed and shine. And, I booked another that I will voice in upcoming weeks! My deepest gratitude! -Jo

"Thanks Paul - I finally feel comfortable with the Wry/Dry reads and I look forward to working with them a lot more. Amazing how the breathing techniques you teach make a difference. The power from the first take to the second take made all the difference. Why doesn't anyone else teach that? Looking forward to next week! All the best! -Stephen

"Hi Paul. Just letting you know that the agent that you brought in to the last VO Tune Up has contacted me, and we now have an appointment to meet next week. Thanks so much for creating this opportunity for me. I have been trying so hard to get noticed by an agent.. and in one night, I did. I really appreciate all your work and classes. Thanks again. -George

"Hi Paul! got the takes from class, thanks, and I appreciate being able to listen to my own work--a great learning experience. Also, I appreciate your teaching points below--they're the kind of self-adjustment I should never stop doing. Looking forward to seeing you next week!" -Doug R.

"Hi Paul - I just wanted to take a moment and tell you how much your class meant to me. When we first started I was very disillusioned with my career as an actor, and I had started to think that it was maybe time for me to find something else. In fact, joining your class was a last ditch effort to see if I was really cut out for this. Every single session was so inspiring, and I learned so much from you and I feel rejuvenated. I'm at the point where I can jump back into auditioning with both feet and feel confident about my work. I know this is a corny email - but I mean every word of it. Thank you so very much. I will definitely be taking more of your classes and I look forward to working with you more in the future." -Jonathan

"Paul, there's a special star in your crown up in heaven. You're more than just an artist and a teacher. You're an INSPIRER! While I'm now on book #21 that I have recorded professionally since I took your audio book class â€" thanks to the work we did in your classes, but I have never done a National Network Commercial VO. UNTIL NOW!!! I have one booked for tomorrow (Tuesday) for Perigio Sausages. As I auditioned, in my head I kept hearing you saying, 'Less. Less. Less.' Thanks for everything once again!!" -James

"For an intimidating skill to learn, you made it very comfortable and totally open for errors and 'failing.' That comfort is crucial, especially amongst a group, to having the confidence to attempt an accent. You also didn't just lecture, you continued to use the accent with us which is so helpful. Someone can take an accent apart piece by piece and explain to me how to do it, which you did do, but what helps the most is just continuing to speak it, allowing us to hear it live from you as well as from others with the examples on the internet you showed us. Great examples by the way. It made the class a lot of fun. ESPECIALLY when we listened to bad accents. That strangely might be the most important part because it allowed me to stop being so much in my head knowing that really great actors can be terrible at accents and get away with it, therefore so can I (if I've really tried and can't seem to fully nail and accent that is)." -Melina
