Landed a pretty decent voiceover gig but it didn't happen the normal way. Here's how it went down.
I've had my issues with voice123.com before. No doubt. But I've since been able to (mostly!) figure out how to use that site so I can get some quality auditions coming ...
NEWSFLASH! I have a blog! As you probably guessed by the sheer fact you're here now. And sometimes in that blog I use pictures.
And one of those pictures cost me about $650!
I put a blog up a few years back about celebrities doing VO work. Celebrities who are in no need of the money yet are effectively taking a job away from a working ...
Man, I don't like going places.
Ever since pursuing voice acting full time, I've been working from home.
Rarely do I need to leave the house for my voiceover career. Occasionally, the local recording studio will have a job for me which will require me to get in the car and drive about 10 miles down the road. It doesn't happen hardly ...
Something I've always wanted to do. I've always kind of emulated and practiced since I was a kid.
Has come true!
Stay tuned here for the details on a voiceover goal that I've had for a long time that has FINALLY come to fruition.
UPDATE/REVEAL:
I ...
Stupid ears and sinuses!
A little backstory.
I've had sinus infections, bronchial infections for as long as I can remember. I always tell people that I don't get colds, I get infections.
Recently, with the kids back in school, my youngest got some 'crud' and she therefore passed it on to me.
Flash forward a week or so ...
Stay tuned to this spot for a very unique voiceover session I had last week.
It promises to be 'mushy!'
Kinda. Though I narrated the audiobook version and that version is almost through the Amazon/ACX approval process, I just found out the most recent book I narrated, "The Ultimate Serial Killer Trivia Book," is the Amazon #5 seller in books! That's pretty cool, right? I thought so. You can order the book here ...
Not THAT kind of 'tool,'....perv.
I'm a voice actor. My main tool is my voice. So what happens when your tool doesn't work anymore? Or isn't working at 100%?
That's where I find myself at the moment as I've been dealing with a cough for the last 2 weeks. Coughing is one of the worst ...
Finally got my elearning demo together!

Lemme know in the comments what you think? Would YOU hire this person to voice your slides, demo video, curriculum or anything else that may require some guidance?
Usually to get work, you have to try. I was fortunate to get work the other day without doing a damn thing. Now, to be clear, I TRIED in February when I did a job for them but a client hit me up saying they needed me again for a video and hired me outright. No audition. No marketing needed. Just, 'hey, I got some work for you. Can you do it?' The ...
I voiced some movie trailers. From Comedy to Fantasy to Horror. They're all on my youtube page or you can watch them all here. Check back as I'll be doing some more.
Look for more videos but I thought I'd share at least one of the videos I'm voicing for Vonage.
Somebody posted a negative comment on a video I posted to my channel and it's not got me mad. It's actually got me thinking.
I had a job interview for a voice job.
That's NEVER happened before. Usually it works like this... You get an audition, you do the audition, they either hire you or hire someone else. But this happened very unexpectedly. The client contacted me through backstage.com (a site for actors and casting call jobs) and said they really liked my voice ...
Did some VO work for Char-Broil and their TRU-Infrared grills...
