(was Friday, Feb 16) finished course "How to voice commercial", read the article related to that, continued the drip on setting up a home-recording studio and watched the webinar on "How to Record Yourself as a Voice Artist" #stolenvoice

test out new travel studio mic

re-iterated on my recording studio by adding more foam overall - didn't take as long as I thought it would. The recordings sound good. I'm not hearing a space echo anymore. Only my performance is a bit weak due to allergy. Will give it a meal break and continue later to see whether I can push to a more healthy voice #stolenvoice

had first day of practicing voiceover daily - voice was a bit „in a bucket“ (in German it makes sense to say it ^^) #stolenvoice

🎙 spent an hour testing out my audio setup, mics, trying to reduce noise and then recorded an hour of audio to help with a few new projects #mylife

finished editing part 1 (day 1 out of 4) of my time at the London voiceover conference #stolenvoice

Shitty 1h recording session. Spent 40 minutes only configuring again PreSonus Studio One (the solution was easy in the end) and had only 20 minutes for the scripts itself which is when I didn't feel like voicing anymore and felt how tired I was as well. Calling it a day. #stolenvoice

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

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

learned about more advanced humanisation techniques (non-scripted humane sounds), breathing techniques (e.g. staccato breathe) and de-breathing methods, handling commercial copy, the challenges when self-directing and self-analysis, controlling the mic (e.g. bass proximity effect) #stolenvoice

refined and finalized the last 4 commercial scripts. Finally I brought this to an end. According to my process rehearing is what’ll follow tomorrow (and audio recording them after). Wish me success! #stolenvoice

(on Thursday 22) finished the "Home Studio" Drip emails, made it until "Module 11 – Delivery Speed – Fast" of the "Advanced Voiceover to Pro Standard" course, watched "British Voice Artists: Making it in America" webinar and wrote my weekly confession in terms of what I got done in the last 7 days #stolenvoice

Setup very professional recording studio for voiceovers #life

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

continued voiceover course (cabling, audio interfaces, hardware, recordings software) #stolenvoice

began editing the video+audio of the last 4 days at the voiceover conference in London #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

buy travel studio gear so recording can continue when I’m in Europe #learnwhileyoupoop

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