Amazon Chime: ZOOM’s Newest Challenger
Remember GoToMeeting? Ugh...I hated that program. Skype seemed to be a pretty good video conferencing tool. Google Hangouts are still chugging along, but then Zoom.us blew up everything. Seems like most all of the working online public is using Zoom.us for...
Just Before that…
Google Your Name
'Said it before, and will keep saying it. Set up a Google alert on your name, or your website, or maybe your brand slogan. You'd be surprised and sometimes encouraged the places it shows up. Yesterday's Google Alert for "CourVO" and "Dave Courvoisier" turned up a...
Freelance Fodder
Nothing dogs a freelancer more than the issue of fair pay. The freelance voice talent I know struggle mightily with this on the various forums (see yesterday's blog, Lively LinkedIn) I'm not going to beat this horse too much more, but I'm fascinated by it....
Video & Audio
More and more, I find myself editing video. I don't know why I find that worth mentioning...I've been in TV 30 years...but never have I felt the incursion of video in my world like I do now. In a previous life, video was always something on TV, and one could always...
Step It Up
Immersion. I've said it before. I don't know how else to go about pursuing my dream in Voice Overs without total immersion. Be, do, say, involve, hear, seek, relate, and otherwise absorb all things related to the field. I made another move in that direction Thursday...
Writing Reigns
Among the skills I've developed in the last decade, none is more important than writing. People decry social media and how it's stolen decent physical social interaction, but people are writing now more than ever!...Twitter, Facebook, Texting, Email...it ALL demands...

Is it "Neesh" or "Nitch"? 'Doesn't matter. Niche is so chic or kitschy that it's become cheeky. What I'm trying to say is "niche" no longer has meaning. EVERYTHING = niche, so going by the algebraic law of equality, then, NICHE = everything. NIETZSCHE You don't have...

Avoid Mouth Clicks – Drink Water
My father got kidneystones. I occasionally do too. Yeah, they hurt. But I've managed to reduce their frequency by learning to drink water like a fish. Not cranberry juice, not soda, tea, coffee, milk, or energy drinks. Water. Lucky for me, the upside is I rarely...
