Pendaran responds:

When I warm up my vocal chords, I start out with deep breaths from the 
diaphragm to get into the proper breathing mode. I then start with 
some deep pitched, low rumblings and "mee mee mee" type stuff. After a 
few minutes, I bring up both the pitch and level of my voice I little 
at a time until I am "quietly" projecting my voice to a few feet 
around me. By then, I usually feel ready to talk to a few hundred 
people at once.

The thing is, I am not a singer and have had no training in voice 
projection. The stuff that I do, I just came up on my own and they 
tend to work for me. However, if there are any singers or actors  who 
have had some training in voice warming and projecting, please comment 
here. I'm sure that you could give some better advice and I would love 
to hear it as I'm always looking to improve my heralding skills.
