The Eh to Zed of Voiceover

The Eh to Zed of Voiceover

There’s already loads of voiceover podcasts out there so we thought... why not make more of them? What started out as a sensible idea quickly unravelled into something rather odd. Stupid even. Maybe even a waste of time for everybody. But you might learn something (you probably won’t). Whatever the outcome may be, we had fun. Hosted by Martin Whiskin and Shelley Anderson-Tahiri (actual voice over people, not blithering idiots). https://www.martinwhiskin.co.uk/ https://shelleyatthemic.com/ If you enjoyed the podcast so much that you thought ”I’d like to give you money”, then you can - https://www.buymeacoffee.com/martinwhiskin

Warmth. Friendship. Or something.

How can you sound "warm"? No, not by sweat dripping on the floor in a plip, plip, plip sort of way.

Well, you can find out in this week's incredible instalment. (No, really it is).

V is for vile, vacuous and vanishing. None to do with voiceover. Couldn't even shoehorn something in.

 

It's near the end of the series ok?

Range. Repertoire. Rvariety.

Voice actors need to be able to show off their RANGE. And I do mean show off. Because that's what we are. Massive show offs. Oh Vera, how many voices can you do? 800? That's fabulous darling! I'm up to 801 now doncha know.

Name your files properly. That's it. That's the lesson.

Look, there's a limited number of words to do with voiceover that begin with N, ok?

What do you do if your ill? Rest.

But if you're a VO, sometimes you have to find remedies that will keep you going.

I just want to rest though.

A few weeks ago Shelley ruined episode G because she decided to get caned.

Turns out there were other things she was working on in the background.

Well, whatever, here's an episode about all the equipment you might need as a voiceover artist.

Did you know that my new phone doesn't even have a headphone socket? WHAT? WHY?!

I needed to get that off my chest, thanks.
