Wednesday VO Tip: When starting out in the world of voice-over, focusing solely on money and equipment is not the right approach. The most crucial step is to learn how to perform commercial and narration scripts. Having a good voice alone and owning the best microphone or the most impressive recording booth will not suffice. To have the best chance of succeeding, it's important to work with a coach and develop your voice-acting skills. Mastering the performance of voiceover scripts is critical to your career and can eventually lead to success. However, many newcomers on social media often need to pay more attention to this vital first step. If you're serious about pursuing a voiceover career, don't make the same mistake unless you're doing this as a hobby. #voiceovers

A great panel and topic tomorrow! How can News organizations, networks and local stations groups create more content, more efficiently, and with better quality? 1- Virtual #extendedreality and #augmentedreality environments on LED studios are at the forefront of the technology adoption that is making immersive experiences the gateway for a new storytelling reality. 2- How the news and local content is going to be produced to engage younger audiences in the near future is beyond today's physical and green screen studios and way closer to a gamified LED XR immersive content experience without creative boundaries.

As a voice talent, your job is to deliver a clean, natural recording that captures the true essence of your voice. While it might be tempting to apply EQ to make your voice sound 'better,' it’s best to leave that to the mixing engineer. Here’s why: Preserve Natural Tone: EQ can alter the natural character of your voice, making it harder for engineers to blend it seamlessly with the other elements of the mix. Minimize Artifacts: Over-processing with EQ can introduce unwanted artifacts, which can be especially noticeable in the final mix. Trust the Experts: Engineers have the tools and experience to apply EQ in a way that complements the overall production. Your job is to provide them with the best raw material to work with. Remember, the cleaner and more natural your recording, the more flexibility the engineer has to make you sound your best. If you want to optimize your recordings without over-processing, Just Ask Robbo! Want to ensure your recordings are top-notch?

Quick tip for a video editor from an audio engineer #1: Get organized! The picture on the left is an unorganized OMF/AAF: ❌Elements (dia, music, sfx) are mixed up ❌Tracks not grouped together by channel type (mono vs. stereo) ❌Will take extra time and energy to set up for mixing The picture on the right is an organized OMF/AAF: ✅Elements are organized by type ✅Tracks are grouped by channel ✅Will take less than 10 minutes to set up for mixing Why is organization important? It helps your engineer: 👉Get a sense of the sequence just by looking at it 👉Spend more time on the finer details 👉Deliver a final mix that’s closer to your vision How do you organize your sequence to deliver for mixing? Let me know in the comments!

The forecast for the upcoming hurricane season is the highest ever issued and AM radio, which plays a key role in the national Emergency Alert System, is there to help, according to this Inside Radio article. In a recent consumer report, Xperi Inc. found that AM radio, which offers emergency/weather disaster updates, community news, and more, is an indispensable part of their vehicle’s dashboard (60% agreed). AM Radio is a national asset, especially during times of natural disasters, which is why the AM Radio for Every Vehicle Act, which would require automakers to keep AM radio in the dashboard, is so important. https://lnkd.in/e2DmvJQF #Xperi #DTS #AMradio #automotive #connectedcars #cars DTS, Inc.
