This World Voice Day (WVD), we brought together voice geeks from around the globe for a special Meet the Author session with Dr. Ian Howell, moderated by Dr. Dann Mitton. Centred around Dr. Ian Howell’s new book, this session offered valuable insights directly from the author. This was our little contribution to celebrating WVD and sharing the wonderful work within the voice world.
If you couldn't attend live or would just like a recap, you can watch the recorded session below:
