Title: How to laugh in a female voice
Post by: Auroramarianna on August 01, 2014, 12:10:56 PM
Hello :)

Despite my high voice, my laugh comes rather mute and some I make weird sounds. I don't know how to use my female voice while I laugh to be honest. :(

I have searched for tips on the net, but couldn't find any. Can someone help me?

Thanks,

xxx

You have to make a conscience effort to keep your voice box small (narrow breathes) as you laugh and do your best not to let it go too big, I know it's hard to since laughing happens involuntarily. But just practice laughing even if it sounds fake, so you can get the right feeling down.

Yes, thank you! I just never recorded my laugh and don't know how it really sounds. But since my voice is so high, my laugh sometimes comes mute and I make weird sounds! I just don't know if the weird sounds would be gendered male or female!

Thank you for the advice :)
