The 4th edition of the vocal booth – or voice over isolation booth is up now. The door has gone in and most of the drywall is in for the back walls. Coming up next is the finished inside. We’ll be moving onto acoustic concerns in that one. [...] Here’s part 3 of the new voice over isolation booth – it’s coming along and things are starting to move a little faster.. One thing I can tell you when it comes to building a home voice over studio, is that it is a huge untertaking. It gets even more difficult when you try [...] Here’s the new video for the studio… Very retro.. Oh so fun!! We had so much fun making it we didn’t really get a whole lot else done… Enjoy… Here is the new video showing the rest of our snail like construction on the new voice over isolation booth at MineWurx Studio. Enjoy! I made a short video showing the current status of the isolation booth in it’s beginning stages. More like naked beginnings. You can catch it here on YouTube. One of the hardest things for new voice talent to overcome when they have little to no experience with sound isolation, acoustics or audio recording, is how to get the audio they do record up to standards that would be acceptable for professional production. Many times beginners will pout and cry about how they never get hired or booked for a gig without looking at one of the core reasons, outside of professional training, why they don’t. That reason is how the product they so desperately want to sell sounds.
Though daily, many people wander out into the VO world with audio that sounds like it was recorded in their bathroom – and they wonder why it is they have so much trouble. We all know how quickly an article about race, color or culture can spin out of control, so allow me to make a preemptive strike and announce right here that this is not an article about righting wrongs or correcting the world’s problems. If you suffer from hypersensitivity to racial issues, you may not want to read any further. Just understand that this article was derived from a collection of observations of race and ethnicity as they apply to the business of commercial voice over and nothing more. After 10 years performing voice over and coaching talent from all walks of life, these are some of the things I have seen and my opinions about how they effect multicultural actors attempting to succeed in this cross-pollinated society we call America. |
