    Voice Acting Lessons?

    Has anyone here taken such courses? I am considering it, as I'm doing a number of the voices in dotBoom, and while I like to think I've got a decent range, I know it could be much better, and also, I'm running into the maximum number of different voices I've got in my back pocket. Any...
