If you’re new, welcome!  For those of you who have been with us for a while, thanks for hanging in there.  Once the cruise is over we’ll be back to normal posting regular podcast/newsletters with tons of tips, auditions and more.  Don’t forget to look on our site.  Our previous newsletters and podcasts are full of tons of free tips and tricks.

I’ve been very busy voicing several projects and preparing for Our VoiceLympics Voiceover Workshop Cruise.  This event has turned out even bigger than we expected.  If you’re joining us, you will have the opportunity to work with 12 top VO coaches covering nearly every format, two studio tours in San Fran and LA, unlimited food and entertainment, two cocktail parties, Deb Munro’s 40th B-day bash, Bob Bergen’s One man show, LA Wrap Party you will never forget, win tons of prizes and more.  I can’t stress enough what an incredible opportunity this is.  You will never get this many coaches in a workshop setting for this amount of money.

Due to a very busy schedule I’ll only be teaching a few workshops for the remainder of 2009.  
Selecting Styles Knowing what the client wants is key to landing the part.  We’ll teach you how to choose the right style to suit the script no matter your level of experience.  Work with formats, personalities and a variety of scripts and discover the style in you. 
Talking Audio Long format narration is a lucrative part of this industry and there are many variations.  We will take you through a variety of genres such as Documentaries, Tutorial, Industrial, Audio Books and more.  We will teach you about consistency, mic technique, performance skills and troubleshooting tips you need to know that will save you time and a ton of headaches.

Of course don’t forget our TeleVoice Workouts – the last Wed of each month.  Due to an extremely busy voice work schedule I was unable to host July’s workshop but we’ll be back on board for Aug.  Register soon.  This is a fantastic opportunity to work on current auditions (have them directed for a better shot at booking the job), to brush up on current skills or just get your feet wet.  Each session is catered to your individual needs.  Only 4 participants max per session.  Two session times offered: 2-4 p.m. EST and 8-10 p.m. EST.  If this doesn’t work for your schedule, consider booking a private session.  All sessions are recorded and uploaded for your review.  Remember, I don’t need to see you, I need to hear you.  This is the most cost effective way to maintain or learn this craft in a workshop setting while still getting one on one.  $105.00 per session  Aug 26th, 2009  Register – [email protected]   There is more information on our website in the workshop section – www.micnme.com
