ONE OF FEW – FINAL SNEAK PEEK

We’re less than a week away from One of Few’s release! I can’t believe it, guys. This is so exciting… and TERRIFYING. But mostly exciting. Thanks to all those that have pre-ordered their Kindle copy! If you’d like to pre-order, do so here. The paperback will be available on Tuesday May 23rd through Amazon. And…

One of Few – Sneak Peek #2

I had the opportunity to talk with Doug Engler and Darcy Abramson of Anime Zing Radio about some of my voiceover work (Interviews with Monster Girls, Girls und Panzer der Film, Fairy Tail, The Thunderbird series, etc) as well as One Of Few. The interview can be heard here (I’ll pop in around the 33…

One of Few – Sneak Peek #1

The book is less than a month away from going live!!! If you’ve seen the Amazon page for the Print version of One of Few, it shows that it was released on March 12th—it wasn’t. Quickest/easiest way to get that fixed was to simply make the book “unavailable.” One of Few OFFICIALLY comes out on…

TAKE COVER!

You’d think working at the same company with someone would allow you the opportunity to get to know one another before having them on your podcast. You’d THINK that, but, alas, no.

However, when it came to attempting to write a book,…

It…

Check Baby, Check Baby, 1 2 3 4

Time to geek out about microphones! If you’re in search of a mic (please never abbreviate microphone as “mike”), best to test out a bunch of different ones. This is the best way to figure out what works and what doesn’t. Dynamics are a good “workhorse” mic. They work in a variety of situations. I personally like…

The More You V.O.

Many before me have answered these questions & others like them: “How do I become a voice actor?” “Got any advice for someone trying to break into the industry?” “Do I need a demo and/or agent?” Yet, despite their best efforts, the inquiries continue. So here is my attempt. Voice Over (or V.O.) is everything…
