@@Betterschooloflanguages No, the video is not clear. Especially for beginners, because she goes right on step 3, and misses step 2 and 1. By that, I mean that it is true we modify some vowel sounds to make the timbre color consistent GIVEN that we are singing the overtones correctly to start off. That is to say, we sing the normal vowels in relation to a specific vowel sound, every single vowel ( a e i o u) needs to be in relation or "inside" this bigger vowel. She doesn't explain this, and its extremely important. Thats why are a lot of beginners are strugglers and never make progress. There's also more important details that I dont have time to get into which she didn't even bring up. This video should be more targeted to medium level singers.

@@I_Am_Midnight-i I agree, however you cannot possibly incorporate everything into a video and keep it short enough to where the "masses" will watch the whole thing. It also doesn't explicitly say this is for beginners, although I am one. Bouncing around the 12 million "how to sing" videos on youtube really has to be the worst way to learn how to sing. I feel like I'm going in circles, and while some of this made sense to me, I have more questions then I did before.

@@aly9402 Hi, I agree with most of what you said. And yea, watching the popular "how to sing" or ",watch this video and you'll sound great" are the worst sort of videos. Its about training the correct muscles to engage when signing. If I were you, I'd avoid the videos who encourage you to "yawn" , or who overfocus on breathing or bringing too much nasal resonance. Also, do NOT work narrow vowels first, or the feeling of a narrow throat. Get a sense of what an open throat feels like, but don't exaggerate (yea there's such a thing as too open of a throat) you need to learn to not get caught on bad habits as a part of your principles. Also, remember this; It takes a LONG time to master this or even make a significant progress. Singing is the hardest skill to master. So, if it doesn't go your way, just keep trying. In Italy, they spend 4 years working vowels before singing any song. That should give you a hint how difficult this stuff can be. If you have questions about something related to singing , I can answer them for you.

@@bhoomika6505 Well, what I'm basically saying is that you really want get the tone of your voice in the right configuration FIRST, before you start working on modifying certain vowels or even intonation. You have to find a way to find this right vocal track which is able to create the right overtones for a right voice to sing (one that is not squeaky, or too dark, depressed, over bright etc) . That depends on many factors, including the position of your pharynx, larynx, tongue, a relaxation response , and more importantly your vocal chords and its relation to subglottic pressure of the air. When we sing, we try to make the vowels go mainly to the "OH" vowel, (the OH vowel creates balance in the vocal track basically) thats what I mean when say that we make each vowel to a specific vowel sound. Every singer uses the OH vowel overtone sound. Make sure that you don't overdo or exaggerate this, you don't want sound operatic (unless you're doing opera) and make sure you don't use the root of your tongue to create the position. If you're just starting, I'd recommend that you get a good vocal coach to guide you, cause you really don't want muscle memory to mess you up if you're doing it incorrectly for longs periods of time You should first work on that, and along the way, youre gonna other overtones like those find in belting... or rock.

TL:DR Example sentence didn't follow your vowel to sound rules. Full explanation follows: I'm desperately trying to learn how to convert words into their singing form by applying a text to singing sound formulae but your rules and example don't align or am I missing something? eg in the example sentence "In the rain, the pavement shines..." you say the vowels in rain and shine are to sound like: rain = ah shine = ah But the rules you gave on the previous slide said: A = AH or AY I = EE or AYE E = EH or EE So according these rules: rain = r (AH or AY) (EE or AYE) n shine = sh (EE or AYE) n (EH or EE) rain is missing the "i" sound - either an EE or AYE according to the rules. and i and e in shine doesn't have ANY of the vowel sounds instead your example sentence said "ah" which is the vowel sound for an A?! Shine as spelt doesn't contain an a. What am I missing here? Please help me understand as this is exactly the approach - but an internally consistent one I'm looking for! Update: Hilarious I shouldn't have stopped at 5:10 because running it for a few seconds longer I would have noticed the only 2 singing sound used either AH or EH even though there are 3 vowels a, e, i in the sentence. Oh plus PAH which isn't in your given rules at all. As I say hilarious if dark comedy is your thing. 😅
