Ryan Dream talked with Maric Tobias recently. She is known as the “voice whisperer.” The meat of this interviews starts around 20 minutes into the podcast. Good stuff all through, but my ears perked way up after the 20 minute mark.

Her closing remarks were so so true…
“The more patient you are with your progress, the quicker you will move.”
The things I learn from my friend Bob Souer’s Blog…
This time it was another source for podcasts about the VO biz. The voicebank.net – now called videovoicebank.net – has a great blog that includes podcasts. You can reach it directly at http://www.productionbank.com/blog/
I am Kevin Delaney’s newest biggest fan apparently. Yesterday I posted a link to an in studio video recording of one of his audio recording sessions and then today listened to a podcast he created about learning to say “no” to work that is simply not worth your time.
For anyone just starting out in this business, yes – take pretty much any VO job that crosses your path. But if you are a working professional with a steadily growing client base and creative skills, there will come a time when you need to learn how to turn down the work that just is not helping you continue to move forward.
Not only is this a truly inspirational podcast, it is exceptionally well done in every way – audio quality, content and delivery…simply superb.
