My Voice Experience
I have over 3 years of podcasting experience as host and audio editor of Filkcast: Potter Style and audio editor for PotterCast. I have also recorded announcements for the shows as needed. A year ago, PotterCast started producing an old-time radio show. I performed several characters including a wizened professor, and several older students and a lovable gamekeeper. These were performed with a British accent. The first season of the acting troupe was a huge success.
My Training
President of a Toastmasters Club: The Prudent Speakers. Co-host of the podcast Filkcast: Potter Style for over 3 years.
I am a parody song writer and singer.
Also, I have developed and perfected character voices while reading to my children for almost six years. I feel this has provided me with the best training for audiobooks, narrations and character voices.
My Studio Equipment
Equipment
Intel iMac, shure mic
Software
Garageband, Levelator
Additional Skills
My real passion is for character voices and I have developed strong characters by reading to my kids. I was able to use that experience to perform in the PotterCast acting troupe as well as sit in online read-through sessions for new parody plays.
I have live announcer experience by participating in the 2009 McDonald's Thanksgiving Parade.
