Congratulations! Episode 27 marks the halfway point in this Real Talking Tips podcast and Elaine Clark’s top 52 public speaking lessons and voice-over tips.

The Word Emphasis chart uses a symbol to describe movements and gestures that draw unique focus to a word or phrase.

Additional information, video, and activities about how to use the Word Emphasis chart are found in the Elaine Clark app: Adding Melody To Your Voice. The Word Emphasis chart is also written about in the Elaine A. Clark books: There's Money Where Your Mouth Is and Voice-Overs For Podcasting.
