"It is rare to find quality practice for dubbing with an engneer and a director. With Jonna and Anthony, you get to find out what it’s really like behind the mic for a fantastic price. Working with Jonna and Anthony helped me learn how to relax behind the microphone. I feel more confident in making strong choices in fast paced recording sessions."
⁃ Casey Johnston, Voice Actor

“I will try to keep this review as brief as possible, but no guarantees. I took this training looking to increase my capabilities in dubbing for anime, and it did not disappoint! Through the guidance and direction of Jonna-Lynn, I was able to bring the proper nuances and emotions to the characters provided for me. Being able to be vulnerable and bring the truth that was needed was an absolute cinch due to her help…

This was a wonderful class and only $50 to boot! I cannot wait to take more classes from Jonna-Lynn and Anthony. I hope others will as well!”
- Chris Berg, Voice Actor

I would HIGHLY recommend if you're interested in ADR!… If you've ever watched a dub and were curious what it's like behind-the-scenes, try it even if it's your 1st time! They make it so approachable and comfortable. I felt like a [star]. Thanks y'all!”
⁃ Becca Su, Voice Actor

- Amber Barile, Voice Actor

"Working with Jonna-Lynn and Anthony was phenomenal! I was going into their class with a limited knowledge on the workings of a dubbing session, and that made me apprehensive. However, they created a space that was so welcoming and so well thought out, I immediately dropped all nervous feelings of trying a new thing, and was just ready to learn and have fun - And I did both of those things in tremendous amounts!"
- Brendon North, Voice Actor

"I simply cannot recommend Jonna’s ADR workshops highly enough. She creates an incredibly safe and open environment to learn and find how to get the most out of your read. If you’re looking for a super fun way to practice a highly-sought voiceover skill at an incredibly affordable price, this is for you!"
⁃ Alister Cado, Voice Actor

“Just wanna take this moment to shout-out [Jonna] and Anthony for an AMAZING ADR Practice session I honestly feel like I learned a lot from y'all despite that being my first time. I look forward to working with y'all again in the near future. Again I really appreciate it.”
⁃ Christen Smith (AriesFires), Voice Actor

“Jonna and Anthony are so much fun to work with! They provide a fun and safe environment where I was able to goof around and have fun while experimenting with new ideas or approaches to a character. They are great directors and really know how to push the actor in the right direction in a way that isn’t pushy or demeaning but in a fun and loving way!”
⁃ Tomas Villamizar, Voice Actor

“I only have positive things to say about my experience working with Jonna and Anthony… Both of them have such a profound love for the craft of acting, directing and storytelling. Also, they are both very professional, respectful and easy to work with, as they promoted a chill and light atmosphere during the session…

Jonna’s kind, joyful and disarming energy, coupled with her knowledge and insight as an actor/director made it easy for me to trust her and her direction. She had a specific vision for how she wanted the characters to be portrayed/performed, but at the same time, she was open to surprises, interpretations I put forth that she hadn’t thought of that still served the character/scene/story/etc., which made the work we did even more collaborative, which was awesome!

I had a lot of fun throughout my session with Jonna and Anthony. Though I got a lot out of it and pushed myself, the work we did didn’t feel like work to me. It felt like play, which made it so much easier to stay relaxed, present and inspired. There was a lot of laughter and lightness but we still stayed on task, and it was easy for me to get back into and stay in character each time we recorded. I left the session with a smile on my face, and I felt accomplished and more confident in my abilities when it comes to ADR, and as an actor in general.”
- Clinton Vance, Voice Actor

“There is a phrase out there, that practice makes perfect. And while there is an element of truth to that phrase, a more accurate one would be- Practice makes permanent.

It’s not enough to just practice something, because if you don’t know what you are aiming for, what you are trying to accomplish, you can develop bad habits at worse, or not truly improve. And, as an actor, I always want to improve.

Enter the wonderful team that is Jonna-Lynn and Anthony. Working side by side as director and engineer, they both truly understand what it means to do ADR, what the industry is expecting out of you, and what to say to convey that message to you.

ADR is something that’s easy to learn and hard to master, partly because directors who know exactly that je ne sais quoi are almost always hard to help you practice ADR remotely, even if they are available for coaching. These two breach that gap. They helped me understand that “anime” sound that is strived for so often, and got my hands on experience with what was needed.

In short, they know that practice makes permanent. So, they help you make permanent the best version of you possible!”
⁃ Aiden Childs, Voice Actor

“I was a bit nervous about getting into ADR for the first time, but Jonna-Lynn Alonso and Anthony Rodriguez help you dive right into it. The advice and notes I was given in real-time were incredibly insightful. These two are going to help you bring out your FULL potential in the booth. You get to learn how to master the fast-paced environment of ADR, while also getting tips on how to grow as an actor… You can tell they both love what they do, because they want you to nail the scene and feel proud of it. If you’re a voice actor curious about ADR, I cannot recommend a session with Jonna-Lynn Alonso and Anthony Rodriguez enough.”
- Melody Finn, Voice Actor

“As a beginner to ADR, Jonna-Lynn and Anthony were fantastic to work with! Jonna-Lynn was incredibly patient and helpful in her direction, and I really loved the amount of time I was able to get with the scenes! I feel much more confident with my ADR skills as a result, and I definitely recommend their coaching services.”
⁃ Megan Otani, Voice Actor

“I had a BLAST working with Jonna-Lynn and Anthony in our private ADR session! My goal coming into this was to gain more confidence in my live action dubbing skills. While I had some professional experience in it, I wanted to practice and refine those muscles in a safe environment. When I saw that Jonna-Lynn and Anthony were offering 1-1 coaching on this, it was a no-brainer.

After talking to JL about my goals, all I had to do was to show up! JL and Anthony had everything prepped ahead: a scene chosen, a script adapted, and a character handpicked for me! We proceeded as if in a real sesh. JL was fantastic in her direction, and helped lead me into subtler performances, to the point where I would start catching myself in later lines and recognizing when I did something too "big". Anthony informed us of any timing adjustments that were needed as we went along. They were a perfectly well-oiled machine together, and created such a 0 pressure setting for me to explore and practice!

Often in a real session, it's go-go-go and you don't get to watch the entire scene playback all the time. Getting to simulate the experience for educational purposes was so invaluable, and I would absolutely do it again. I highly recommend booking a private ADR practice sesh with them, whether you're new to the craft or especially if you're a working actor looking for more practice!”
- Rebecca Wang, Voice Actor

“I had my first ADR session EVER with Jonna-Lynn, and she made it SO SO SOOOOO easy. I couldn’t be more thankful for the experience. 💖💖💖”

“Jonna gets this side of the industry. I highly recommend a session with them to brush up on those ADR skills of yours! 💜💜💜”
- Dashawn Ricks, Voice Actor

"TLDR - Book time with these two! 

This was absolutely wonderful, I haven't had so much fun working in the booth, practicing new skills, learning new techniques, and getting instant feedback. Jonna and Anthony were so kind and really wanted the session to be fun and engaging. I genuinely didn't want it to end. Everything we tried was pretty much a first for me, and I wasn't left to feel anything but safe in the session. We laughed, we bonded, and I learned how to kill it in ADR/Dubbing. I'm grateful for the opportunity to learn with them and I can't wait to do it again. Time very well spent. I promise you won't be disappointed.”
- Terrance Addison, Voice Actor

“Jonna was delightful to be directed by. Not only is she passionate for the craft and very amicable, as an actor, I felt like she pushed me in the right direction without being harsh nor taking it the wrong way. Definitely a director with a vision for the work and a pin-point execution. Definitely recommend working with her!”
- Valentin Angel Fernández, Voice Actor

- Nicole Shara, Voice Actor/Sound Designer

“Jonna-Lynn did a good job of picking a character that would match my voice print so that I could focus on the acting portion of the practice. She did a solid review of the scene prior to the lesson and was able to direct me appropriately based on it. Overall it was a good learning experience.”
- MJ Lu, Voice Actor
