The Voice Coach behind the 'gibberish' in Nude Tuesday

From Afternoons, 1:52 pm on 15 June 2022

The New Zealand film Nude Tuesday is standing out, not because of the nudity, but the fact the language spoken in throughout is made up gibberish!

Vocal coach Perry Piercy worked with the filmmakers and actors to invent the entirely new dialect.

He talks to Jesse about that process and how the actors learnt their lines!
