    TSME #014: Entertainment Reporting

    Debra Mark was born and raised in Southern California, Debra always knew she wanted to be behind the mic or the camera in some way. She was the student who loved to read out loud; loved to be heard. She thought maybe she would become an actor or a news anchor so she went to college for broadcast journalism. Both of these dreams came true in different ways because now Debra is a jack of all trades! You can hear her on KFI 640 AM and KPCC 89.3 as well as see and/or hear her on shows like House of Cards. Debra's three pieces of advice for being a broadcast journalist or radio personality are to be a good writer, to read a newspaper out loud and work on making it as conversational as possible, and lastly to be natural - be who you are.

    SFV #013: ADR, Looping, and Voice Matching

    Ben Pronsky grew up in Houston, Texas. He was born to a yoga instructor and a military man. He had studied theater and was doing a co-op theater audition in Houston, where he performed monologues that had a lot of distinct characters. One of the directors introduced him to the director of ADV Films who did a lot of anime and dubbing. After recording his first job for anime, he put together a voice over reel, got an agent and began working in the Houston market. Eleven years ago he made the move to Los Angeles for more opportunity. He feels that his work is all about coming from a place of authentic genuine creation of characters. Ben has studied regularly at the Larry Moss Studio and is currently a member of the Edgemar Theatre Company in Santa Monica. Ben has been lucky enough to work in video games as well as looping and ADR. Looping, or Wala work, is the background noise in a movie. Productions hire voice actors for call-outs, incidental voices and crowd noises. This is necessary for scenes in public such as restaurants, airports, or hospitals. Looping requires a very specific skill set. Ben says, “It is the perfect marriage of improvisation, voice over and stage. You feel like you are in a theater because you are on this big sound stage.” You can hear Ben’s looping work in the recent movie Deadpool. Ben’s advice is to take classes, work on your technique and your craft, and learn what your unique skill set really is. Secondly, don’t let the self-doubt in. Never second guess yourself. Third, surround yourself with a really good team; meaning your agent and representation, but also your colleagues, friends and families who are rooting for you.

    SFV #012: Voice-Over Coaching and Training

    Tyrone Jackson and Alyson Steel discuss voice-over coaching. Alyson reveals that she prefers to coach students who are gung-ho about the industry. She says that it can be a very psychological industry and as actors, voice over artists have to access their emotions as tools, and if they have any emotional blocks its something they have to deal with.  To give our audience a taste of voice-over coaching, Alyson guides our producer, Lexi, through a piece of ad-copy. Alyson gives some great advice for beginners: 1) Stand up when reading copy. Either wear flats or take off your shoes in the booth to feel grounded. 2) Start by anchoring, which means reading each word in the copy without inflection.  3) Figure out who you are in this situation and who are you talking to. 4) Know where you are in the commercial. A coffee shop? A bar? Inside a car?  5) When working on the mic it's not about volume, it's about intimacy.    For more great advice like this visit SixFigureVoice.com!

    SFV #010: An American Idol Star's Journey to Voice Over

    American Idol's Blake Lewis opened up to our hosts Tyrone Jackson and Alyson Steel.   Blake was always a fan of voice over as a kid. Growing up in Bothell, Washington, he was always mimicking people-- he had a knack for impressions and sound effects. When he got into high school Blake found out that beat boxing was a legitimate skill and he dove in head first. Blake believes that beat boxing, voice over, sound effects and singing all bleed together because they are all ways of using the same instrument - the human voice!    Right out of high school Blake started touring with bands and it wasn't until a friend at a video game company asked him to come in to record some voices that he started to think about voice over as a career. Just as that was happening, he got on American Idol.     After all his musical success, Blake is now expanding into voice over once again. He has a huge range and no filter, which makes him uberly fun to be around, but he needs his coach to reel him in for commercial voice over. Alyson Steel coaches him in setting the boundaries and playing within those boundaries. He is learning how to use the attitutudes from his characters in his normal speaking voice to help color his commercial reads.    Blake Lewis is launching his voice over career and so can you.

    Roger Leopardi started out in the music business. He and his brother were recording artists known as MVP with a popular single in 1991 called Do It To Me. Because of contracts and bad management, MVP didn't end up taking off.  As Roger was leaving the music business he met his wife and decided to get a "regular" job. He worked in retail for years but always wanted to work for himself. When he decided he could not work retail ever again, a customer who Roger had always helped with programs like Pro Tools came back into his store and Roger asked him, "How come you've never asked me if I wanted a job?" He got an interview with an ad agency the next day.  Roger began his career producing commercials at this ad agency in Fort Lauderdale. He learned the environment and increased their productivity, making 30 - 50 commercials per day. There were about three voice over actors that he worked with on a daily basis. He built relationships with the them and eventually the voice actors started to tell him that he had a good voice that was popular right now.  With this encouragement and the need for growth, Roger told his bosses that he was never going to be satisfied. They never had to pay him a dime over what he was making at that moment, as long as they gave him the flexibility to pursue his voice over career.  Years later, Roger now lives in Los Angeles as a successful voice over artist.  Want to get your voice over career started?
