Practice and record, read some of your favorite passages or phrases in different tones and inflections record and listen. But what ever you do please don't turn slang and poor pronunciation that usually hits my ear as uneducated. How low is your voice? Have you ever noticed the easiest voices to recognize are a deep and rich tone. Oh yeah and if you are in theater (drama) make your voice comfortable so you can still project, example going to deep in the diaphragm or high in the head (hopefully not from the nose) takes more air if it is not natural! Break a leg

just talk...every1 has their own unique voice

meditate on that for about a year. after 12 months of silence, you will find it...

Don't know... Try singing... Every kind of songs.

It's actually just practicing and finding they way you feel the most comfortable speaking. if you put on a "persona" to speak you wont be looked highly upon while if you speak in a voice that is completly naatural it would be waay better and more highly regarded.

I love acting... for my local theater co. but to find your own "voice" you have to go up on a stage, in front of a few friends that don't make you 2 nervous... and without practicing, "wing-it" then you make your own from all the things you have seen and herd, then you blend it to become your own

I would sing in your car or wherever. Make all the unique pitches and wierd sounds that you can. Sing high and low. Talk loud and softly. Experiment. Find out what you like. Emulate some styles that you like. Listen to different languages and see what sounds you like best. I like my voice early in the morning or right after a shower bc it's deep and low. Rhythm is fun to play with as well.

ummmm, everyone has their own unique voice.......
