If you've ever seen a cartoon, you've heard this voice. It's that high, annoying, squeaky voice that makes a kid character so young, or a nerd character so annoying, or a gremlin so creepy. Since there's no actual name for it, I have taken time and creativity to finally name it, "High Goblin." (/sarcasm)
How to Voice: High Goblin
Step #1: Move your voice's pitch up to your regular high. This takes care of the pitch, which can be changed after you get the hang of the voice itself.
Step #2: Partially tighten your throat and vocal cords. If you need help doing this, try moving as much of your tongue that you can higher, closer, and tighter. The indication that you have the throat formation is a little feeling at the spot where your adam's apple is/would be, meaning the middle of the throat. The only way to describe it is pressure and a lack of space.
Step #3: If you don't get the voice right away, try breathing in and out for a while in this mouth/tongue/throat formation for about half a minute. If you don't get it by then, try another half-minute. Hopefully by now, you've gotten the voice.
