attended the OneVoice voiceover conference in the last 4 days #stolenvoice

began a singing course (did the first 8 modules) to discover my voice even more #stolenvoice

learned (as an overview) how to use Reaper and Pro Tools as voiceover artist. Also learned: how to interpret briefs and casting instructions, editing my submission to a casting, how to get on casting lists, doing alternate takes, what it means to go over the top (OTT), the different types of agents and what rates/fee should be charged #stolenvoice

wrote my in-house-community accountability Thursday truth post on my I got done in my vo biz in the last 7 days #stolenvoice

finished editing 18 minutes of final material for #stolenvoice tv episode 5 (and 6 minutes of outtakes) - the result of 3 weeks not catching up (never again)

attended a mentoring session on voiceover - helpful for my next biz steps and goal-setting #stolenvoice

installed and tried Audacity in my recording studio to make progress with my commercial demo reel (recorded studiolist script and compressed and normalized it, send it out to review the performance and quality) #stolenvoice

continued the commercial VO course and learned the art of speed-reading, how important getting physical is, how to understand the copy and visualize the audience, and learned a thing or two on timing, rhythm, attitude, prosody and projection (it's a trapp :P). I also practice that commercial script on theme park rollercoaster more and submitted a version to let it be reviewed and critiqued professionally #stolenvoice

today's mic time was only 10 minutes long because I practice late and shouting in the mic at night in a non-acoustically treated room is not a good idea if I want my neighbors to be friendly to me 😉 - so I used the rest of the time doing the course on character acting and I learned about the 7 keys to characterization #stolenvoice

wrote how I chose my voiceover software for recording and editing my voice - draft for #stolenvoice blog

recorded 10 scripts (commercial, character, corporate, narration) for practing purpose and feedback #stolenvoice

recorded, selected and submitted 5 of my currently best recordings for one script get pro feedback #stolenvoice

learned about the casting process and getting work as a VO, the preferance for custom demos or custom clips for the casting, and that success as a VO means to practice a lot (!) and learn tons. Did a light refreshment of a sound theory: e.g. difference of dynamic mics and condenser mics, sample rate, bit rate #stolenvoice

Good day. Produced stolenvoice tv 31 in 7.5 hours. There's still room for improvement (doing it quicker) but I felt I was already having a pretty good / streamlined workflow (process) #hip

continued polishing the scripts of my commercial demo reel (iA Writer and Hemingway Editor helped today) #stolenvoice

another voiceover practice session (tomorrow I'll dive into more theoretic work again to improve my practicing practice) #stolenvoice

after a day off because feeling sick-ish and slight ear-pain I had an extended session today (but focussing only on style of delivery to perfect it) with a new recording setup: Sennheiser MKH 416, Pop audio pop filter, Shock mount by Rycote and Focusrite 2i2 mixer - is another level. Also I gave my recording environment a bit more room while still treating it with acoustic foam. #mictime #stolenvoice

digitally connected with people I met at the voiceover conference #stolenvoice

started with how to voice commercials course and practiced that one script I’ve been dealing with for some time now (I’m still not satisfied especially with the my timing of the screams and some pronunciation) - wanting to improve but I know it’s a process that takes time #stolenvoice
