I know I said FRIDAYS but last weeks episode happened HARD this week. It comes in threes... Busted Faucet, another underground water leak and then a pop-off on the water heater went bad. And also got a quote to have my crawl space encapsaluted. Sheesh...
By the way...I HATE PLUMBING. I can do it, but I hate it. After covid I cannot affoprd a plumber. I am not a rich man but one who can DIY...However in VO (which I love) I measure my success against my targets not what others are doing. I am not them, they cannot be me. As I inch up on the end of year 4 I see great things but I also see shortfalls. Only YOU can measure your success and chart your path. We are all 1000% different. There are some common needs... other than plumbing. We have to use all our skills to make it work. Can I fix those things that happened this week? Yes. You Tube rocks. Am I dedicated to it? No. Love it? no. Passion for it? Absolutely not.
Quick listen but some good take aways today! Learn, practice, learn and see you next week.... maybe....

Exciting news from the studio that after a doing a lot of pro/con and why/why not charts I have decided to start offering "officially" demo and sample services for fellow VO's. This is not a move FROM voice actor to producer just and add on to my business and what will be a VERY LIMITED add on as I want to personally do all the work so I cannot do a lot of this... but I truly enjoy it. I started in audio many years ago and have been producing a lot of spots the last three years for end clients for radio and have even done a few local TV spots.
Get the full story WHY I am crazy enough to try to add this to my biz in this episode!

Don't let those illusions get in the way... your or others. Being grounded in VO is one of the hardest things to do for me. I ride emotional rollercoasters weekly...but this new focus of PIVOT VERSUS PANIC is helping me. Learn more about me at troyholdenvoices.com

We have all had it, and let's face it. It NEVER goes away. We work in a ctlclical business that can give great joy and elation and the next day drive you to drink.

How much processing are you doing? It really depends... is it an audition or a finished delivery? Are you expected to do ANYTHING to your files at all? Are you OVERPROCESSING? I'm no audio engineer but having worked with many and delivering well over 10,000 files the past few years PLUS I have stayed at a Holiday Inn...I think some of you are OVER PROCESSING your auditions and taking way too much time... and worrying about things that don't matter! {{voiceactor}} {{voiceover}}

I have been through a lot with this podcast. It was like raising a child in some ways... but as I have grown and changed in my career I also feel it is time to transition to the "other" podcast and dedicate more to it so YOU get better content. Thus, Ep 130 will be the last VO LIFE episode and you can hear me weekly on ANOTHER VO PODCAST with Alden and Jake.
THANK YOU for following me, listening, laughing and crying with me. THE JOURNEY IS FAR FROM OVER... it is just moving. The Facebook Group stays the same, the other podcast logo has changed to reflect toe connection... and we all three will uphold what I started in delivering truth, transparence and now 3 different views on all topics. Hugs to you all, see you over there!!!!
-
With 2 VO Podcasts, I want to make sure that we are not overlapping and not giving you great content so... this one is going to start doing things focusing only on my business and my practices versus interviews and other topics. Listen in for the plan!!!

LET'S GO! And not YOU Tom Brady!!!!
