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

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

Feeling good, feeling in flow (something I've been longing for to feel like for many months). Two factors are responsibility for that: an accountability partner keeping me accountable every day (!) my new voiceover show with a new episode (of Stoic philosophy) every day - yes DAILY is the primary keyword, and SOCIAL and PHILOSOPHY are the other (secondary) keywords #hip

took longer than planned but finally done, my first #stolenvoice IGTV video episode about the most important voiceover advice - hydration

Excellent talk with Hugh Edwards today. Key outcome: I was procrastinating to finish the demo reel and shipping a ready-to-use version of studiolist.io. With the new Plan-Result accountability, I'm planning to change that. #hip

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

Finished editing my weekly podcast episode 🎙️

(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

Recorded this week's episode. Nearly failed this week, no mood, but ended up with 17 min episode!

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

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

finished the ph story video, took 5-6h to make, 20 takes, maybe I overdid it a bit this time? 🙃

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

produced + published episode 3 of #stolenvoice IGTV on tongue twisters

pre-final-edited the first 5 minutes out of approx. 60 minutes of video footage of day 1 london voiceover conference #stolenvoice

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

Translation from stolenvoice tv 27 EN to DE done - 2.000 words the article, 200 words the scirpt for the actual video, 100 words the summary for the teaser on Insta #hip

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

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
