bought my new audio gear #stolenvoice

had another #mictime session with some progress but still wasn't happy with the performance (it's a tricky one because I try to combine a calm, conversational tone with a mix of fear and joy). So that's work in progress 😉 #stolenvoice

finished the advanced VO course (doing post-production, working with directors, client-work remotely, physical and vocal health) #stolenvoice

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

edited a part of a novella which I'll be voicing as a pro-bono assignment and gave feedback #stolenvoice

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

wrote my Thursday confession / 7-days review of what I got done in terms of VO biz and art, submitted my new VO performances to get pro feedback and some interaction with another VO student #stolenvoice

new episode 4 of #stolenvoice tv is published on Vimeo - blog post following later today

totally didn't see that coming, but after having attended the GFTB webinar "2018 Annual Roundup: The State of the Global Voice Industry" in combination with my general "pendulum swing" attitude I decided that starting in 2019 I'll solely focus on voiceover (voice-acting) as my profession. Side-projects like studiolist.io or voiceoversdream.com will only play a role when I have energy and time left, and in case I need a change from voiceover or just something else to "play with". What a surprise! #hip

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

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

Made an important decision: Making money through product work via #studiolist does take longer and teaching via #freewritecamp is not a money-making "machine" anyway. So, my current focus is on revenue 💰💰💰 via #stolenvoice client work and (inbound) marketing of my client voiceover services because through client work I can make immediate money and money is important for my business survival. When survial time will be "mastered" I can shift focus on playing with other channels of revenue - Klitschko's tweet (twitter.com/Klitschko/status/… ) reminded of focus as the key ingredient for long-term success. So be it. Also learned that when the topic is survival I'm pretty good at it, as learned in Cuba.
