Recipe for Voiceover Success

cammie — Thu, 28 May 2009 00:00:00 +0100

We get many calls from people who are interested in getting into the voiceover business. It's an intriguing prospect for people who have been told they have a great voice; maybe they've spent a lot of time reading stories to kids or have made announcements on PA systems and loved it.

It seems like an easy way to make money. And besides, it's just reading outloud, right?

No! No! No! The pros make it sound like it's an easy way to make [...]

A Bread Recipe you'll go Bananas for!

Hang on to those mushy bananas hanging out in your fruit bowl and whip up a batch of this banana bread.

This particular recipe is unbelievably good. I gave a loaf of it to Mayo on Saturday when she came in to the office to record Verizon phone system prompts.

Mayo texted me later that day and told me her 2-year-old daughter Mia ate it "like there was no tomorrow". Adults seem to react the same way. It's that good.

I've named the bread fo [...]

Thank you to everyone who took time out of their busy holiday schedules to stop by our studio last Saturday for our Holiday Open House. We had an impressive turnout of more than 80 people! We even had a couple people drive up from Oakland to join in the festivities. It was a fun group!

Jim and I were happy to take the time to spend a few hours of the holiday season with all the great people we've met and worked with this past year including students, clients and fellow voiceove [...]

At our last voiceover workshop I brought a batch of these whoopie pies to share with the class and they were a huge hit. If you're looking for a spicy, ooey- gooey treat, these spicy pumpkin pies will make you say "whoopie" at first bite.

Jim's Birthday Cupcakes

It was Jim's birthday on Saturday. Yes, we both had birthdays this past week. Two Scorpios in one office. Seems like that would be a recipe for disaster but it's worked out great!

Of course we needed to celebrate and so I baked cupcakes that we shared with our voiceover class. The only thing missing was a nice cold glass of milk!

Try these when you are craving something rich and chocolately. Topped with thick cream cheese frosting, it doesn't get any better!

A Recipe Worth Sharing

cammie — Thu, 16 Oct 2008 00:00:00 +0100

At our last voiceover workshop I brought a loaf of homemade pumpkin bread to share with the class. My son Rob has loved this fragrant pumpkin bread since he was a small boy and now at age 25 he still enjoys it......so much so that he can consume an entire loaf by himself in one day.

It's moist texture and delicate cinnamon flavor makes it highly addictive. I tell my friends I make it because it makes my house smell good....which is true, but I love eating it, too and really, [...]
