In part two, Cristina picks up from her University experience and working part-time at Jamba Juice and Starbucks. Finances became an issue for her and her family back at home. It was a huge dilemma and struggle. She made the call to go back to California. It was a pivotal decision. Cristina let everyone know she was back in NorCal! There was a question about her voice changing with age yet as she aged. Creativity Inc. was a creative services company that provided VO, music, sfx and more for toys and games, and Cristina got invited to work there in a salaried position as a voice talent. A.Huge.Boon. It was an incredible on-the-job education about voiceover. She stayed 6 years, ending as a voice talent coordinator. It was her initiation into doing VO as an adult, rather than little girl voices. She even got her first agent while she was there. Then, a big, dramatic, unexpected change in the course of her life. A terrible snowboarding accident leaving her lucky to be alive, with lots of physical damage and a wounded psyche.

Cristina’s determination created her new path because the medical system failed her: She became a certified personal trainer so she could get her own answers to her physical problems. Chronic pain, the ability to walk only half a block… Depression… She made decided that VO must provide her a full-time income. Another crossroads… 86 pounds. Hair falling out. Essentially – she was dying. It was terrifying. She made a HUGE decision in her sobering reality...

All about staying supple with her skills, Kay gives us the inside perspective of her experience with VO training - when she does it and whom she's done it with. Names you've probably heard about, but her perspective on working with folks like Nancy Wolfson, Pat Fraley, Rob Paulson and Ceila Seigel.

What are Kay's future plans? Gaming for sure - chasing that Shakespearian drama! And wrapping up her first VO book - but it's not a 'how to get into VO' book, it's about having a VO career and keeping your human soul intact!!

Kay is the female voice of The Tennis Channel, the female imaging voice for Q107 Toronto, and narrated the insanely popular TV series The Property Brothers on HGTV, seasons 1-4.

part 1 of 2
Rick Riley, VO artist & storyteller, is a former radio personality with almost 30 yrs behind the mic, with 16 yrs doing a drive time show in Miami. Swept out of Clear Channel, he searched for his roots and found VO. He is the VOICE of the Minnesota Vikings and a feature voice for NFL films. And More... Audio was his LIFE, but Rick Riley didn’t want to do voiceover after a very successful Miami 30 yr drive-time radio show. However, Clear Channel shut that down, so he had to move on. Rick tried to do a syndicated show, but it didn’t take off as he wanted. He decided, with outside encouragement, to step into voiceover, trying “pay to play” as a first step. Guess what? He didn’t like how he sounded doing commercials! He felt really green compared to national talent, but didn’t know why. He got coaching from Nancy Wolfson, learned a TON about script interpretation… pretty soon he got an agent, started booking jobs… Once he was more confident of his own ability… the dominoes fell! He’s a natural storyteller.. And has learned how commercials have changed: Selling the product “ain’t” selling the product! Now with the Minnesota Vikings production company, they’ve won 3 Emmy’s and both he and the producers acknowledge what the other does. Help your clients feel like each of them is No. 1! Treat your clients so they provide you the foundation for success! Become an Epic Storyteller like Rick! Learn more about Rick at his website www.RickRileyVoice.com

Is there a power play between agent and talent? Is it still the Hollywood stereotype? Roger King didn’t want to be a DJ… but he had a degree in Radio/TV broadcasting. So he honed his sales skills, was a good businessman as his own VO talent, got repped by PN Agency and then bought it when he had the chance. He knows both sides! Roger offers nuggets of advice about talent communicating with agents, Professionally being selective vs being “clever”… How industry changes and lots more talent entering – or saturating - the market had changed his job.

Some tidbits: Digital and Live Action are coming together… Be Entrepreneurial. Best advice – think globally… Actors have a license to stare – and see people for what they really are! Are those in the MOCAP suits Actors or not? How should they be paid? It’s all up for grabs right now. Digital has changed the landscape of payments. Digital and live action are coming together. Animators are having the exact same ideas as actors. Be Entrepreneurial. Think globally. The movie Chico & Rita was produced by a Barcelona Spain company but was actually created by companies in 11 different countries coordinated via Spain. The production model is changing. It’s as big as when sound entered films! You can work with anyone, anywhere. Ed works all over the world and shares his China experience as a ‘Master’ and how he had to invent again, to break thru the culture walls. Then - WHY is that Iron Giant (from the movie) piggy bank in Ed’s closet and why is it his favorite thing in there? Guilty pleasures, best childhood friends and Shamans.

WOODY ALLEN, ANTZ & ED HOOKS - MATCHING PIXELS TO THE HEART! MEET ED HOOKS, INVENTOR OF ACTING FOR ANIMATORS! My acting teacher from San Francisco Ed Hooks got dragged in by another acting student to do acting teaching to animators back in 1996 for a “small” animated movie called ANTZ starring Woody Allen … ANTZ was only the SECOND computer animated full-length movie made in the US! (Toy Story being the first. So he tried to teach introverted animators about acting via script work and performance, which totally bombed. Luckily Ed modified his efforts, learned about animation work in order to teach animators, especially when working in computer animation and the 24 frames per second “moment” ; and then he wrote a book about it. Back in 1996 NO ONE wanted to publish his new book ‘Acting for Animators’ because they didn’t think there was an audience. He was just ahead of his time. It didn’t get published until 2001. Ed also has great insights to the VO production and casting handled for animation projects. Some tidbits are: VO Sessions for animation projects… Contacting animation companies – who are not accustomed to actors!

Deb Munro: Teenage runaway to Pirates of the Carribean!
Part 2 of 3 on LovethatVoiceover
From being a teen runaway who was anti-“book smart” to becoming a teacher, loving psychology, from voicing on ‘Pirates of the Carribean’ game to being the voice of the Faroe Islands… Hear Deb tell us how it all happened… As we pick up, Deb tells me how a casting person was fearful to tell her the truth, which motivated Deb to not only educate herself but fully embrace coaching and brutal honesty toward talent!
