A Canadian group called "On The Mic Training" recently announced a voice acting summer camp aimed at children and teens (aka the target demographic) taught by none other than Lee Tockar, Kazumi Evans, and Rhona Rees. Tockar is the voice of Snips, Steven Magnet, and Gummy's inner monologue. Evans is both Rarity and Luna's singing voice (and Octavia and Rose's voice). Rhona has many credits to her name including Vapor Trail from Top Bolt, and Bev from Littlest Pet Shop.
Now I'm sure you're wondering why Horse News is shilling for such an endeavor?
That's because, it's actually a hell of a deal. The camp says it runs for 4 days from 9am to 4pm for under $700 CAD (that's $540 usd)
That works out to be around $20 USD per hour for lessons from 3 professionals.
So if you've got kids or younger siblings or are here without your parent's permission, here's the details:
