Got an early, quick and dirty version of my commercial demo reel done - awaiting feedback from my VO peer #hip

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

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

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

continued learning on Self-Direction for Voiceover Artists #stolenvoice

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

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

practiced 3 English commercial (TV) scripts #stolenvoice

finished editing part 2 (day 2 out of 4) at my time at the One Voice voiceover conference in London (almost a month ago - what?!) - now uploading to Vimeo #stolenvoice

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

built (improvised) my 1st home-recording studio: it's the classic wardrobe that I find the best solution for now. Audio test still to be done #stolenvoice

edit voice-over for #devsync demo video 1/3

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

practiced the commercial script ("All The Towers" theme park) and liked some aspects of my performance, but not everything, especially that clipping occured. Can't wait for my new mic + mixer to arrive so I can regulate the gain level better. #mictime #stolenvoice

Building Studiolist (2020 Documentation) Week 3 #studiolist youtu.be/vnMSCirsFQk
