Animation comes from the latin word 'animare' which means 'to give life to'.
Known across North America for their humourous audio productions, SMA has also produced demo tapes for many of the top commercial and animation voice over artists in the city. In the past SMA has utilized the talents of the Acting Program faculty for commercial productions. Recently this association expanded and SMA hired Acting students for their current Christmas CD project. We needed performers who could read classic Christmas stories, deliver answering machine messages suitable for a variety of settings from corporate to the North Pole, act in short dramatic audio scripts and render improvised and scripted characters like kids and elves. The Acting Program talent pool was an obvious choice.
