I don't think this is intended to be an excerpt from Witches of Eastwick but a 'stand alone' performance, so it really doesn't matter that she's not singing to an 18 year old!
That was great for someone so young, just standing up in a class room - I'm impressed. If you're not already receiving vocal training, you should be...you're very good. Go for it!
Is that supposed to be a baby she is holding at the beginning and end? She is singing to Jennifer, an 18 year old, not a baby, whose father she was having an affair with.
I think you will find it is completely correct. I am reffering to her attempts at vibrato which does indeed (if you research this carefully) come from the diaphragm and does not happen in the throat....just as i said.
please do not insult my intelligence on the matter as this is something i specialize in.
Do what you will with it. It's impossible to "flex" your diaphragm to create vibrato... it only reacts to an outward force i.e. your lungs filling up when you prepare to sing. Vibrato is the result of your larynx moving up and down slightly, causing a sight bending of the pitch.
Perhaps your teacher may be mistaken... I know that my first teacher thought that good breath support meant flexing the diaphragm, which wasn't right. Then I went to college and studied voice and learned the right info.
i have almost finished my training at the brit school, the best at national diploma level for musical theatre in the country.
if you look vibrato is a musical effect produced in singing by a regular change of pitch! it can be characterized by the amount of pitch variation (depth of vibrato) and the speed in which it is varied. this pulsating action comes from the diaphragm when it is controlled to pulsate at a greater speed (which this young lady in the video does not do due to lack of control

i agree the acting is quite real but the song very flat in areas... good job though xx

Be careful that wobbling your voice comes form your diaphragm and not just added to be decorative from your throat which is what you are doing.
you acting is fabulous.
be careful also with some dodgey moments in tuning.
otherwise...i love it weldone!

This whole tip about the diaphragm is completely wrong.

Perhaps there was a misunderstanding, but if so it's because your initial comment was written poorly and therefore was hard to understand.
And to be frank your second comment is barely more comprehensible. If you're saying that healthy vibrato is created by the diaphragm, you're wrong.

i am not so good with my wording....but i will highlight that to my vocal coach....
even though i am of extreme confidence...
