Audible, the world’s leading provider of spoken-word entertainment, has partnered with The Identity School Of Acting the UK’s leading part-time acting school, to offer specialist audio training and scholarships to develop students’ voice acting skills.

The partnership will include sponsorship of a termly 18 hour Voice Acting Module which will cover audio book and drama performance, voice reel surgery to offer actors advice, support and coaching and studio workshops between students and Audible staff to improve their audio skills and knowledge.

Audible will also sponsor two students per term. The sponsorship will be presented to students who require financial assistance and have a specialised interest in audio recording.

       

Identity School of Acting was formed by Femi Oguns MBE in response to the need for an establishment that reflected and catered for actors coming from a multicultural society. IDSA provides drama training of the highest quality, whilst preparing actors from all backgrounds for the reality of becoming a working actor. Since its opening, IDSA has received an overwhelming interest from industry professionals, including casting directors and major film production companies and has become a first point of call for directors seeking talented actors.

Anthony Mark Barrow, Head of Acting from IDSA Los Angeles, says: “We are incredibly excited about our partnership with Audible, and this very strongly illustrates their commitment to working with diverse voices. IDSA students are an incredible mix of unique performers from all over the world, and we can’t wait to discover what we can create together. Our ethos has always been to create a space for actors from as wide a variety of backgrounds as possible, and we are delighted that Audible have chosen to help us develop the next generation of talent.”
