revamped my studio with more acoustic foam inside the cupboard and made the work surface in the studio plain. Also fixed the blanket so now they're all the time at a fixed location. Makes a quick recording more straight forward. #hip

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

another iteration for the recording of script 1/7 of my commercial demo reel, awaiting the feedback on the artistic performance level and the technical audio quality - making little progress while having fun in the studio imitating monkey because heck the script is about jungle and rainforest *haha* #stolenvoice

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

setup for recording #fajarsiddiq

Dragged my audio recording of my 1-minute description of what I got done for my client into Windows Clipchamp after procrastinating all day about starting on this. Baby steps.

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

finished editing and post-processing part 3 of the London voiceover conference 2018 footage - took longer than expected because I got picky / "perfectionistic" by adding more sound effects and smoother and more intentional transitions - it became a little film again 😉 - now exporting the file and uploading after - also got a little distracted from the editing work because I heard the Zoom H5 picking up the Canon G16 focus motor sound quite a lot - the Zoom was attached to the shoe mount of the camera with no audio absorber, that's why. So during the editing time I improved my vlogging setup by attaching both the camera and the mic seperately to the grip and tripod. Should work better. #stolenvoice

another extensive recording session on the mic recording a commercial script and my first reading-out loud session to start developing my hybrid voice (hybrid because I want to unite my writing and speaking voice to one) #stolenvoice #mictime

rig together some basic sound stuff so it’s less echoey in my office

bought my new audio gear #stolenvoice

long training session today in a new setup with better acoustic treatment (way better sound quality) - will try to improve it step by step #stolenvoice

worked on a re-voice for a video, transcribed the text and added new background music. Final edit later #stolenvoice

got an overview of the postproduction process (bit of a repition like - EQ - Compression - Normalisation - De-Essing - Limiting - Insert Effects - Send & Return Effects but that's ok); started the advanced voiceover course to get from my intermediate level to a pro level which included today: to warm up nicely and full-body, going to extremes (ultra low pitch, ultra high pitch, mixture of both and going over the top with a caricature performance) - my voice felt like the strings of a guitar today when I practiced #stolenvoice

watched explainer on how to use Adobe Audition as a voiceover #stolenvoice

finish tuning up photoshop and recording environment #archive

prepare room for Indiehackers podcast audio recording #life

Realize everything recorded at -20db because I pressed a button on the mic so have to reshoot everything tomorrow 🥲 #vids

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