Print publication coverage of the voice-over business is usually lame...even online (which is where "print" is going). Typically, it's some thinly veiled promotion for a local VO workshop in the guise of a factual article. TV news does this too...which shows the power of today's "News Release", or...

Take THAT, ISDN!
This'll be brief. Info in today's blog relates back specifically to yesterday's blog (Lobbing the Grenade Into No-No Land). What I'm about to reveal harkens back even further to any number of articles I've written over the last five years that indicates the certain and now accelerating death march...
Lobbing the Grenade Into No-No Land
Politics Religion Mac v. PC Many times I've encouraged social media enthusiasts to stay away from three online topics. Tired Flames When you engage in those issues, there are no flame-war winners...so why bother? Not that the debate has no value...of course it does...but something about the...
Will Your VO Business Benefit From These New Social Networks?
7 years ago, a couple of enterprising geeks launched a social network called TWITTER. You could only write messages of up to 140 characters. Pundits scoffed. Now those guys are billionaires. Thousands of these experiments have launched since then. They come and go. Some die spectacular deaths...
5 End-of-Year VO Reminders
Holiday "creep" is upon us...and it starts sooner every year. Sheesh, WalMart had Christmas trees up at the end of July! Why is it that the days seem to drag on and on...but the years FLY by?! Look, I know you're perfect, you don't procrastinate, and you follow all your goals to the letter, so...

More ISDN Death Knell Predictions?
Just a few days ago, I posted a quick blog about Telos' Z/IP product. More than just an ISDN codec, it also has IP functionality built-in. My point in writing about it was that here is one of the world's premier ISDN codec producers, tipping their hat to the future, seeing the writing on the IP...
6 Realities of Working 2 Jobs
How many voice-actors do you know who graduated from State U with a major in voice-acting? I thought so. Ok, then...how many voice-actors do you know who earned their degree in business/poli-sci/marketing/or communications and jumped right into voice-acting? Again, suspicions confirmed. That means...
Oh, I Wish!
This is probably not going to happen for me, but maybe you could still make it! VOXMAS! The UK's premiere voice-over conference (VOX) is next May, but in just a few weeks, the same organization is hoping to get some USA VO representation to it's holiday party Friend, and UK voice actor Posy Brewer...
Telos Z/IP
Yes...I know...ISDN is not dead yet. OK, got it. But when one of the top makers of ISDN codecs begins moving aggressively to design and market its newest IP solution for remote hi-fidelity recording, it moves the needle a little further towards "I" for inevitable. Telos came out with what it...
