The adventure continues in the loving care of Singapore Airlines, where nothing says “good morning” like a mimosa with Cristal. 🥂

I was super fortunate to work with the talents of @jmichaelcollins.bsky.social, @micthematt.com and @chrissharpesvo.bsky.social to put together an interactive character voiceover demo that I'm really really happy with and wanted to share with all of you! #voiceover #demoreel #animation #voiceacting

Daily Nuggets:

1.) In all things, pigs get fed, hogs get slaughtered. Leave some for other people.

2.) Overthinking is the enemy of creativity. Be thoughtful, but be bold and trust your gut.

3.) The #1 sign of a service provider you can trust is one that doesn't need to beg you for your business.

One thing I love about VO Atlanta, and which separates it from the field in many ways, is the ability to pack in tons of single-presenter content AND tons of mind-blowing power panels thanks to the size of the venue.
