Hey there, hero!The complaints about on-camera self-tapes have got to stop. Like, now.Yes, it's different than it used to be.But to rail against it is a super huge waste of time.And you on-camera folk that are so pissed off that you have to do most of your auditions at home should take a page out of the voice over talent playbook. Because we've been auditioning at home for decades, and we've learned to leverage it to our advantage.And you should do the same.Yes, it's different, and might be a bit more difficult the first few times you do it. But it really isn't the onerous responsibility that some would have you believe.And no, you shouldn't be paid for it. There are advantages to home self-tapes that more than make up for the disadvantages. And there are millions of free tutorials on how to do a competitive on-camera self tape, even if all you have is a window with natural light and a mobile phone.It is what it is. Stop bitching, grab a new skill and get back to acting.Agree? Disagree? Sad that I'm not being more sensitive to your struggles with technology?

Hey there, hero!One of the ways you can help people hire you is to show them how to work with you, and you can do that with a document or web page that shows them exactly how.We sometimes forget that our customers may not even know how to take advantage of all that we offer.An example is when you book an audiobook project, and you provide the author or publisher how you work, and what to expect.It can set their mind at ease and help them decide to hire you...simply because you know what you're doing and will take care of them.Do your clients know exactly what your operating style is? Do they know all that you offer? Or how you work with clients in general?

Hey there, hero!This past week or two, I've heard some really amazing numbers regarding two numbers - and actors and VO talent complaining about both.We only have ourselves to blame, and we need to stop grousing and be at peace with them.What are these two important metrics?One is the number of auditions that casting directors get for each role, or what ACX rights holders get in terms of submissions from narrators. (The numbers are likely similar in other categories of on-camera or VO work.)The other is how many seconds before someone reviewing your audition will move on to the next one if you're simply not right.You might be surprised at how minuscule that number is.And it means you need to be aware and OK with both of those numbers...because we've brought it on ourselves in the quest for better access to projects.Yep. It's our fault, and the numbers speak for themselves.Now that you know these numbers (watch or listen to get them), how do you feel about them? Are you thinking that they are patently unfair? Still shaking your fist at the heavens? Or are you accepting and understanding of them?

Hey there, hero!After a bit of back and forth, SAG-AFTRA has successfully negotiated a new payment format for IVR work for actors and voice talent.And I am so happy they did - it reflects higher compensation for the hard work that talent does in the category of IVR, and the nature of IVR recording and usage.What's IVR? What are the new rates?

Hey there, hero!We often are fearful that if we don't give our casting partners an awesome option (or a number of awesome options) in our auditions, we won't give them what they really want.As if we CAN even have the slightest notion of what they really want.Instead, I'd like to make the case of being confident in our choices when we design our audition paths.It's not going to "make" them cast you, one way or the other...so be kind to yourself.Do you worry that you're not giving casting what they want? Or that your choices aren't "good enough" for them to cast you?

Hey there, hero!If there was ever a guy who didn't look the part, it's Rick Rubin.He's the first to admit he's no performer. And when someone who knows he's no performer narrates his own book, be very very thankful that he's a genius.His new book, The Creative Act, is filled to the brim with wisdom on how to be a creative soul. Even if he's not the best author-as-narrator, the book is worth listening to, and you'l forgive the sing-song amateurish nature of his delivery......because the content is so amazing. Here's a link:https://voheroes.com/get-thecreativeactOne of the big takeaways has to do with how important the audience and what you think it wants. It's a gamechanger.

Hey there, hero!It can a moment of pause and tense self-reflection, and often, one of uncertainty: raising your rates.Let's take a look at how to have that conversation with your existing clients, and to be at peace with getting paid what you're worth, and then some.Is it tough for you to ask for reasonable, satisfying rates?

Hey there, hero!If you find yourself looking at audiobook auditions of a particular genre, like fiction, or non-fiction, and saying, "Nah...that's not for me."I wonder if you're being fair with yourself.Or if you're telling yourself fairy tails about yourself and your abilities.You just might be cutting yourself off of some amazing, profitable and yes, enjoyable (!) opportunities.Let's take a look at that, and examine the evidence - and perhaps open yourself up to a chance to do some great work.I'll be leading a session called "Fearless Fiction and Nuanced Non-Fiction" At WoVOCon VII (My 5-7 in Orland):https://voheroes.com/wovoconMaybe you'll join me on stage to read!So..do you find yourself avoiding certain books?

Hey there, hero!They've done it again. I don't know how long it will last, but AudioTechnica has lowered the price on the AT-2020 USB Plus (the microphone I use and recommend and teach people with)...again.Earlier in the year, the price dropped from $149 to $100...then it dropped a couple of months later to just $70.With no drop in quality.And they now dropped the price to less than $60.

Hey there, hero!Here's a quick turnaround replay of an in-depth Q&A session held a few hours ago, live on FB, YT and LI, with Jim Johnson and Dan O'Day of The Accents Class.Questions included getting started with studying and integrating accents into your performance, how to switch between accents in narration, how to be consistent throughout a longer piece, what to watch for in terms of caricatures and potentially offensive performances, how Jim studies and helps you study a particular accent or dialect, why an actor might be good at one accent and find a challenge with another......and so much more.The Accents Class is open for registration, and if you join before Tuesday night at 9p PT, you'll get a $300 discount. Here's the link - I highly recommend this course:https://voheroes.com/accentsWatch this to deepen your understanding of accent and dialect work - then let me know: is this something you avoid?

Hey there, hero!(For those who will listen to the audio podcast: at the very beginning of the episode, I'm holding an object in my hand, up close and in focus on my camera - just in case you're saying "How would I know what that is...I can't see it on an audio podcast!")I recently needed help. I'm usually the one offering help to others, but this time...I needed help myself.And I'll be honest - I had to fight the urge to say "Nah! I can do this! I don't need no stinkin' help!"But I did. And I found I had to set aside my desire to be self-sufficient and not to burden others...and take a bit of my own medicine.I got help - from one of my clients, Hopper Stone (a badass photographer, who came to the Palatial Lawrence Estate and helped me set up my new video camera.)Ever find yourself in a moment of pridefulness or embarrassment, not willing to seek the help you need?

Hey there, hero!I've observed people quickly search for an answer to a problem, find some information, and because time is (almost always) of the essence......jump right in to "fixing" the problem. But it doesn't get fixed, and they don't know why. We all want to be efficient with our problem solving, but there's a crucial component to "efficient": your step-by-step use of that solution's info.In many cases, the information is great. The problem is the order of execution. Let's take the example of Jess, who wrote me about a problem they couldn't quite solve, even though they had all the information they needed.It was their order of execution.Once you've listened to this episode, would you please take a moment and share with me a moment that you got ahead of yourself?

Hey there, hero!Are you addicted to making changes to your tried and true processes? Are you constantly tinkering, adjusting and toying with stuff?Or do you only change when you need to?If the newest, latest stuff has your eye, even if what you have now is working fine for you, well...you're not alone.I see lots of performers searching for perfection...going for the newest mic, an updated computer, the latest operating system, the hot new mobile device...when what they are currently using is working just fine for them.And then, there are others who only change when they see a need to, a real need, like security issues, not being able to run a crucial update because their gear is too old, or a feature that's only available on a newer edition of a product.And at the same time, your metrics might change - the standards by which you judge your success.So...Where are you with this?

Hey there, hero!As a Macintosh user, I know exactly what software to use to back up my data and keep myself safe: Time Machine. It's built in to MacOS, and is awesome. Reliable, automatic, elegant.But when a client or student asks me for the equivalent of that awesomeness for Windows, I have to ask my friend, my go-to Windows expert: Leo Notenboom, at askleo.com.I get my chance on Zoom recently, and I had the wisdom to record it for you. If you use Windows and you want to professionally protect your livelihood, Leo's your guy. Watch this video and use the software he says to use.It will simply and elegantly keep your stuff safe.He's even got a very low-cost course you can take (less than 60 bucks for anyone, and 30% off that if you use the coupon code HERO at the link below, making it just $42.

Hey there, hero!The word "ridiculous" comes to mind here.The mic I use and recommend is, currently, unbelievably discounted. With no changes in quality, materials or performance.So now, I'm stuck.I can't make an argument, currently, about looking critically at the price of a USB microphone as an initial litmus test...with my fave mic being priced so low.I can't really say, "Yeah, don't pay THAT little for a mic - except for the one I think you should get!"Can I?(By the way, if you want it, check it out here: https://voheroes.com/get-at2020usbplus)Have you ever had doubt, based on price about a product recommended to you, or with a product you love?

Hey there, hero!I'd like to help you break a habit I see some voice talent doing when recording auditions (and even work): immediately beginning their voice work, as if waiting was a sad waste of tape...or electrons?This applies to on-camera work as well - no need to jump right in and start performing the instant you see your camera recording.Take your time.

Hey there, hero!We've just opened registration for the new 2023 ACX Master Class, and because so much has changed for voice talent in the audiobook narration world and with ACX, I invited you all last week to ask me questions.And I got some great ones: on the editing, on how to judge a book's potential profit, on how much time it actually takes to narrate a book and more.I answer all of them in this week's podcast episode, so strap in, and get the skinny on the latest updates.And, of course, if you haven't yet joined us, we'd love to have you as a 2023 ACX Master Class student, building a solid audiobook narration practice. 9 PM Pacific tonight (Tuesday, Jan 31, 2023) is the deadline for the Early Action Bonus pricing, where we pay the first $300 of your tuition, so here's the link:https://acxmasterclass.com/joinDo you have a question of your own?

Hey there, hero!Next week, Dan O'Day and I will be opening registration for the brand-spankin'-new edition of the ACX Master Class.In fact, we're running (as this podcast episode is being released live) a series of free video training on ACX, audiobook narration, the tech you need, the challenges you'll face (and how, as a new narrator, we've seen our students meet them) and so much more.But...if you have a questions about audiobooks or ACX that you'd like to ask me directly, here's your chance.In this episode, I let you know what you can ask (pretty much anything, but I give you some guidelines) and how to ask (where to put your questions...hint-hint: scroll down to the comments here and leave them).Then, next week, I'll answer them all. I'll be doing a last-minute produced podcast, plus a live event online, with Dan to answer each and every question.What do you want to know about audiobook narration?

Hey there, hero!How many times have you approached decisions around the choices you make when doing auditions as "Sure, I can do that!" …when you clearly are not the type the character demands?Like, way outside your age range, your lineage, your vocal style and more?What about taking the time to choose your auditions based on how much you align with that character? Using a little jiu-jitsu on the situation?We can sometimes go overboard in our zeal to be "versatile" or "agile."This podcast episode discusses the pitfalls of that and how to avoid them. Do you find yourself forgetting just how good you are, as opposed to how many options you can create, when performing?
