00:05 Music is such a powerful way to share God's love with those
00:09 around us. But if people can't understand our words, 00:12 what's the point? 00:13 For the singer, there is a lot more at stake than just the 00:16 message, there are vocal issues, issues like tone, quality, 00:21 pitch, and vocal stamina. 00:22 These areas and more are impacted by the way you 00:25 pronounce your words. 00:27 So, how do you fix poor diction? 00:29 Try lip-syncing, begin by looking at yourself in a mirror 00:32 and lip-sync the words to a song. 00:34 No sound, but moving your lips, face, and tongue. 00:38 It will help you get in touch with all the muscles involved 00:40 with good diction. 00:42 Next, still with no sound, be even more expressive as you 00:46 sing the song and memorize the feeling of good diction 00:49 and expression. 00:51 Finally, make sure your voice is warmed up and put the music 00:54 to it. Try and duplicate what you felt in the first exercises. 00:58 I'm Jennifer LaMountain reminding you, 01:01 God has given each one of us a musical mind. |
