So, yesterday's video wasn't quite your cup o' tea? That's OK, there are SOOO many tools available (unbelievable, really) for easily producing videos that it's almost a crime not to take advantage of 'em. Below is a little thing I put together in less than an hour using wideo.co. Once composed,...
2015 was going to be the year of video for me. So far, it hasn't been easy carving out that goal, but I've made some deliberate and encouraging steps in that direction. Let me back up a second. How often do you find that your friends outside of your VO circle are fascinated to find out what you...
Did you get this email too? Apparently somewhere along the line, I must've expressed an interest in knowing more about this proposed VO casting site. Now they want to know if my interest is serious. From the email: "As we gravitate to finalizing the roster, I am reaching out to you to confirm you...
Are you familiar with SlideShare? Acquired by LinkedIn not that long ago, SlideShare is an online service that lets you share your presentations. Upload or download in almost any format (Keynote, PowerPoint, etc), and share to almost anywhere. The free service is actually pretty...
...there's a new, even more cryptic request showing up in auditions now. Have you see it too? I'm talking about the call for voices that was sent back again by the prospective client, 'cause the first round of auditions were too "announcery". Fine. 'Quite accustomed to seeing THAT. [See my rants...
I dunno. How are you doing these days? Somehow I made it through January...the most hated month in my year. I'm one of the most optimistic people I know, but that doesn't mean I'm immune to doldrums. Lethargy is an equal opportunity mind-set. Business can be good, or jobs can be scarce...none...
This is a side of voice-acting I haven't tried for. Should I? I know Brad Venable and DB Cooper (and many others) thrive on the work they find in video games. It's not like I wouldn't want to...it's just that like launching into ANY new genre, I don't know where to start...where to find the job...
Sometimes you just hafta sally forth and ask, instead of sitting around waiting for answers to come to you. So...I asked. I asked Rebekah Wilson of Source-Elements about the Holiday flyer she sent out. It had all sorts of good news about Source-Connect Beta vO.5, and some verbiage about upgrades...
Got a minute?...er....well...a couple of minutes? The technology, planning, and marketing behind a show like CES is beyond imagination. It all comes together for 4 days in the Las Vegas Convention Center, and this year almost 200,000 people paid homage. I spent all of 2.5 hours roaming around the...
My sites are set squarely on CES today. 'Almost embarrassing that a Vegas geek like me hasn't set foot on the exhibit floor until the third day! My planned stops include Blue Microphones, Shure, Microsoft, and about 50 other impromptu stops along the way. 🙂 Until I get back with pics of cool...
