In-person Dialect Coaching for Film and Theatre

An acknowledged leader in British and American dialects, as well foreign-language accents, Paul can visit your production for just a few days, or be on set for the duration of your project (as well as supplying his dialect designs on CD, and coaching by phone or video conferencing). For lower-budget projects, have Paul prep the actors for the week's shoot, then send him a DVD of the week's sound to select dialogue for ADR.

Speaking of ADR, Paul is just the man to work with your cast at this stage. For instance, he directed Kris Kristofferson, who looped his entire performance in Molokai, substantially modifying his German accent in the role of Rudolph Meyer.
