People often think recording anything is easy. You get a mic, hit record, speak or sing your thing and then it is done, right? But anyone who has spent even 30 minutes in a recording studio, or dabbling into a recording program can definitely tell you otherwise. It takes patience to get the perfect take, get the timing and layering right, and that isn’t even counting the post-production for the best voice over! This often means countless hours in the studio and many a sleepless night. But for us voice over fanatics, our love for this industry pushes us to create the perfect sound.
My dear friend Dan Hurst often reminds us to not take ourselves so seriously and I certainly applaud that philosophy and his great humor because you need that view to keep you sane. He told me he was inspired to create this list after a very long day in the studio, and having had a few of those days myself, this list came alive even more!
