Welcome to the Voice Over Coach

Our new voice over training site is up and all of our posts from the old site will eventually lead here. This is a good day for us – an does not signify the end of the MineWurx Studio site – it just means that MineWurx Studio is headed in a different direction and all of our voice over coaching and training specific stuff will be listed here from now on.

So if you came to this page expecting the MineWurx Studio banner to pop up – we’re sorry. The banner has changed – but we haven’t – we’re still the same old crusty, grouchy voice over training site we’ve always been. We’re just flying under a different, more appropriately titled flag than before..

Welcome. Please enjoy your time here… and if you Can tell us about any broken links we haven’t found we’d be very grateful..

The NEW MineWurx Studio – Home Voice Over Studio Wiring and Construction

dscn0928

It’s taken us a long time to get the “look” we wanted for our new workspace. We’ve had it up and running for some time, but the studio wasn’t shall we say, “client ready” due to the fact the booth and the other little construction projects were getting in the way of everything else. Now, we feel good about the overall look and feel of the studio and even though we still have a way to go to have everything up and complete, we’re at a point where we can switch on the lights and welcome people in.

The studio, as always has been designed around multi-tasking and multi-functionality. There are 4 Windows workstations and one Mac. The Mac and a few of the windows boxes handle video projects. The Mac is also the primary graphics machine and is what we use for all of the office stuff. One Windows box handles ProTools, the other Adobe. One is an exclusive video encoder and the other is a file storage device.

My lastest Private Message from Voices.com

Most of the time when you get a private message through an online casting site, you kind of get your hopes up that it will be for some voice over work. Well, this one was for some sort of work I’m sure, but it wasn’t your normal, everyday solicitation.

So you want to know MORE about your voice over coach?

Want to learn more about me than I may have ever shared before on the internet. Voice Over Talent Dave Courvoisier ( can’t believe I spelled that correctly on the first pass without looking) conducted a very lengthy interview with me for his blog. I wanted to say thank you to him for doing such a bang-up job on it.  With as much as I tried to make myself look like a putz, he wouldn’t allow it.

Voice Casting – Voice Over Talent Database – Week 2 in Review

There’s always some sort of risk when you leave yourself open for comments from customers. One of the things I have mentioned here and there when it comes to the design of the new database is transparency. We all want a voice casting site built upon transparency. What does it mean to be transparent? It means not having to sit around and try to dissect how or if someone is pulling the strings behind the scenes.

People want to know what is going on and it’s pretty hard for you guys to stay interested in a web site you can neither touch nor see. So it is my job, in the interest of transparency, to keep you informed about all of the things that are going on in and around the site. So I thought today with this post, we’d let you know what customers have been saying about us and the site as it stands so far. This is how people feel about what we’re doing.
