ADMC with Eliza
Springboard Correction and Sign-Offs
This is a chance to have Eliza correct and sign off on your springboards. CAP students should be working on Irish right now in the monthly cadence, but any dialect you’ve worked on and are ready for correction is fair game. If you’ve already had your springboards corrected, (from the previous ADMC or hotseat) but you need Eliza to sign off on them, bring those as well. You can upload your springboard MP3s and associated scripts to the appropriate folder (if there isn’t a folder with your name, please add one) here: https://drive.google.com/drive/u/2/folders/171W7I8Yxff6SHCQxLjXXmLzGxb8UPUqA
Master Springboards
For those of you who are ready for it, this is also a chance to have Eliza comment on your master springboards.
For clarification, the master springboard is the culmination of all of your springboard work so far. It’s one long springboard with all eight dialects and all three of each speaker’s clips in a row. Don’t record yourself in it; you should only include the native speaker clips, and after each leave enough of a gap for you to repeat it live. Repeat until you have all of your springboard clips in the same MP3 file. You can use this to practice them all as a run. Don’t forget to add all of your scripts to one pdf, so Eliza can follow along and correct your work.

Once Eliza has signed off on your springboard, and to assign you the next step – performing monologues in your perfected dialects. This is where all of the work you’ve done on your springboards pays off! Taking your version of your native speaker’s dialect into another context is where you’ll figure out what you still need to hone, and it’ll help you build a sense of flow and ease that translates huge on the mic.
We’ll be doing these ADMC sessions for the next bunch of Tuesdays, with a few skipped weeks for the awesome Industry Webinar guests we have yet to come.
