Today is the last day of March! Is tomorrow really the start of the second quarter?  It’s been a super busy, good-feeling month. VO has really picked up steam and I’ve been blessed with gigs from new clients, old clients and a bunch of residual checks rolling in, completely unexpectedly! Gotta love that. Seriously it’s…

It’s 11:28pm on Leap Day, Feb. 29!  Since I committed to posting at least once every month, and it seems I only have 30 minutes left of this one, I am posting.  Got lucky with that extra day! The truth is, I have no idea what to really say. Because my head is once again swimming….

In LA, rainy days are like Snow Days. We don’t get them very often, and when we do it feels like a special treat. It makes me want to stay inside and bake cookies in my pajamas. Somehow time seems to stop and frivolity feels justified. BUT, on a workday, cookie-baking can be a bit of…

This week I received a delightful and unexpected gift. I got paid for a job I thought I’d gotten burned on. Let me backtrack. My business is divided into two parts. There’s the agented side of things: I audition for jobs with my agent (s) either at home, in their office or at casting places…

Preparing myself for a book

Recording an audiobook at home is quite a project. The scope is much bigger than anything else you will do as a voice actor. I remember when I first started, I would become a slave to my internal anxiety. I didn’t even realize how secretly freaked out I was under the surface; it was this low-grade anxiety that would follow me around and be under my skin for days. Recording an entire book by myself felt like such a huge responsibility: I want it to be great and there’s no director or anyone giving feedback and it’s taking so long and I have to juggle all my other work and…it’s TAKING SO LONG and…ai yai yai…a recipe for a not so fun time. I would end up working every waking hour, pulling all-nighters, eating junk food and getting no sleep or exercise. My mindset was kind of like: Let’s just hunker down and get through this!

Thankfully, after two years I’ve figured out some coping strategies to quell that anxiety and make the entire experience more sane and enjoyable! There’s lots of great articles on how to actually prep an audiobook for record, but lately I’ve been thinking about how I’ve learned to prep myself for the task at hand. Here are five things I do to set the stage for success.

Staying Alive

If you’ve been in the VO industry for the past ten, fifteen, twenty years, you will have noticed massive changes. I’ve noticed changes just in the past five years! Jobs used to pay more. There were more campaigns and long-term contracts. There were less voice actors and hardly anyone had a home studio. If you did have one, you had a serious advantage. And if it sounded good, even doubly or triply so!
