Part 11 of PML’s: How does a Voice Talent Prepare for a Session?


We asked some of our top 100 voice talents to find out how they get ready for a voice session. Here is what Sheila says…
“The best thing I can do to prepare for sessions is to sleep well, eat well and drink lots of water. Along with those basics, I spend time every day getting grounded in an attitude of gratefulness and peace. My state of mind affects my performance and there's nothing better than a clear mind and heart to produce your best work.”
More responses from other talents are coming soon!

Part 10 of PML’s: How does a Voice Talent Prepare for a Session?



We asked some of our top 100 voice talents to find out how they get ready for a voice session. Here is what Kevin says…

“It's pretty simple and I'm sure most voice talents do the same. I will read over the copy for any unusual words requiring pronunciation help. Then read for timing and style, basically getting comfortable with the script. I make sure not to get too familiar with it though because my interpretation might be a little different than the director's. This way I am comfortable with the verbiage but "pliable" enough to give the director what they need.”
