M1, M2 And Scream!

Introduction: one of the difficulties about working with vocal distortions is how we can teach them in a healthy way. In this workshop we will see how we can train Vocal Distortions through vocal registers and vocal qualities

Objectives: The objective of this workshop to train the attendees to be able to
recognize the different types of vocal distortions and be able to recognize their differences both audibly and anatomically (based on high-speed camera research evidence) and how to train distortions through Vocal registers & Vocal Qualities.
In addition to proposing a possible M4 based on a vocal distortion

Vocal distortions to check: Rasp (Traditional Rasp, Over Compressed Rasp, Decompressed Rasp, M2 Rasp & Breathy Rasp), Growls, Death Growls, Screams & Grunts.

Content:
1. Introduction: Quick definition of Vocal Registers, Vocal Qualities, Vocal Distortions & Vocal Distortion Source (Glottic, Supraglottic & + 2 Sources)

2. Vocal Distortion Types Anatomic description with Lab footage (including High Speed Camera ) : Rasp (Traditional Rasp, Over Compressed Rasp, Decompressed Rasp, M2 Rasp & Breathy Rasp), Growls, Death Growls, Screams & Grunts.

3. Vocal Distortion Types Training based in Vocal Registers & Vocal Qualities: Rasp (Traditional Rasp, Over Compressed Rasp, Decompressed Rasp, M2 Rasp & Breathy Rasp), Growls, Death Growls, Screams & Grunts. (Open Class)

4. Propose a possible M4 based on the evidence of the Vocal Distortions with High Speed Camera Research

the physiology of vocal distortions
2. At the end of the presentation participants will be able to perform
vocal distortions in a healthy way
3. At the end of the presentation participants will be able to
differentiate the different types of vocal distortions
4. At the end of the presentation participants will be able to recognize the periodicity of Vocal Distortions
