Back to one

One year later, and things seem to be on the same cycle.  The commercial auditions have been few and far between for a while now. I did have to make an emergency trip to Atlanta back in February, was gone 3 business days, and somehow missed 2 auditions (of course!).  I did, however, pick up a few auditions in Atlanta.

There's been quite a bit of heavy stuff going on in the general life department. It's been a rough several months overall for the family, highlighting the challenges of living so far away from everyone else.

Since the last post down there, I have completed my commercial VO demo and I'm pretty proud of it. I'm currently working on getting a website up and running. Both of those things I should've done years ago. So let that be a lesson to you 20-somethings.  I've recorded a number of VO auditions, primarily visiting a studio because it's relatively inexpensive for the peace of mind that comes from not worrying about airplanes flying over, refrigerators firing up, clocks ticking, kids screaming, and dogs barking. 

I got a last-minute notice yesterday, so I did record at home. I have a decent mic and can get good sound when it's quiet out. The moment after I began recording, the neighbor's large dog went bananas for about 20 minutes straight. So THAT took a while. Much better to go to the studio...

Back in December I booked a job that shot in January. December has been good to me over the years. It was great to enjoy the idea of having a job for a full month over the holidays! The spot is supposed to begin running in another month. That's a more long-range and extended process than I've experienced before.  It was a great shoot with fantastic folks all around, so I'm looking forward to a long and happy run.
