For years I’ve been researching ways to take voice over on the road so that when I travel I can accommodate clients who might need a rush job, an audition, a pickup.
Today I had a wonderful workout with my voice coach, Marla Kirban, via Skype from New Zealand to New York.
As I was updating the demos on my site just now I came across a “blooper” I HAVE to share.
I recently accepted the challenge to step into the role of Goneril in a production of King Lear. The actress playing the part was rushed to hospital with a gall bladder emergency and there were two weeks of shows left.
I’m so grateful for another wonderful year of voicing. I’ve enjoyed collaborating on some really cool projects…
Most of us experienced voice artists take for granted that we can produce a “conversational read.” It’s like falling off a log, right?
As the apartment door opened, a cloud of marijuana smoke greeted me. I didn’t think that boded too well for our recording session, but I told myself not to be judgmental.
My first big voice job in Paris was for a national TV commercial about lawnmowers. I showed up to a very ritzy recording studio, with a panel of people ready to scrutinize my work.
So, I’m working on a project at the moment for an Italian client and the direction he has given me is “institutional/emotional” – I would really love to know what that means, any ideas?
