learned/refreshed my knowledge on setting up my home-recording studio, choosing the rigth mic (also for travel) and picking the right software. Current choice: Sennheiser MK4 (home mic) and MKH 416 (travel mic). In terms of software: Reaper or Studio One #stolenvoice
walked 5km 🏃 - time: 40,25 min - average speed: 7,45 km/h - remarks: something is going on - I was again faster than yesterday! Incredible. Also, had a an interesting thought towards the end of my walk which I executed immediately (an „unlock“ page for stolenvoice to arouse curiosity) #health
attended webinar on voicing animations with Dave Peacock #stolenvoice
walked 5km 🏃 - time: 40,5 min - average speed: 7,41 km/h - remarks: wild thoughts that crossed my mind, from finding a partner or not, to the cuba experience (and the heavy rain Erick and I experience in Viñales), I thought the freewritecamp lesson I sent out today (2 days late) and I thought about how to talk on social media so it’s meaningful on the one hand (me being the „expert“) but on the other hand personal to bond with some of the people following me… lots of thoughts, AND: if I exclude yesterday’s super-fast performance (with more than 5km of talking) tonight was the first time I walked less than 41 minutes for 5km - and it was extraordinarily cold but also beautiful with the moon and clear sky - a setting Stephen King would have liked as well (yesterday and today while taking the train I read on his „On Writing“ piece and I like many parts of it #health
wrote and sent new lesson 10 of Story Creation Masterclass, today on how to be more interesting #freewritecamp
asked for references of British and US voiceover so I have a reference on what to aim for with my VO deliveries #stolenvoice
walked 5.7km 🏃 - time: 45,5 min - average speed: 7,52 km/h - remarks: first time walk at my bro’s neighborhood north of Berlin, felt good, was fricking cold but for now the fastest time - and walked bit more than 5km because there was no other route to walk #health
continued learning on Self-Direction for Voiceover Artists #stolenvoice
walked 5km 🏃 - time: 41,75 min - average speed: 7,19 km/h - remarks: as always the act of walking is my best friend, helping me by giving answers and clearing up my head. #health
wrote and published "Hosted on Uberspace: How I moved to another server for my blog but kept the database and blog’s URL" - A personal reminder how I made my first „soft“ migration of a WordPress installation.

due to Meltdown/Spectre did back up a 10 GB big part of my web space incl. wordpress-based websites (coastery.com, naii.nu) and a piwik/matomo installation + migration to a new server - kept me busy for around 5 hours *puh*

learned about other reels (corporate, "voice of gods", audio book"), began a webinar on self-directing my recordings as part of the vo beginners drip, learnned bits and pieces on mixing, playtesting and targeting my reels #stolenvoice
attended a mentoring session on voiceover - helpful for my next biz steps and goal-setting #stolenvoice
walked 5km 🏃 - time: 41,25 min - average speed: 7,27 km/h - remarks: 2nd time with that time (3rd fastest walk in total). Knee pain close to non-existent probably because of the cleaning job I had before. Had many thoughts crossing my mind - mind was uncalm „AF“ (as the youngsters say). Thought a lot about my decision to go all-in on voice-over and I like the commitment. Let’s see if I can meet my personal goal (entering the acting world through voiceover) with my economic goals (not be broke) *haha* #health
learned how caricature/animation/kids demo reels are made and what role an accent does play #stolenvoice
now 🔒secured my main websites with https thanks to @letsencrypt and @ubernauten's wiki explaining (in German) the setup process: wiki.uberspace.de/webserver:h…. Took me 1.75h (cos I had some difficulties) incl. setting my first cronjob. New tech territory *yay* 👨💻
