Joan Baker - Voice Over Diva - Bad Interview
I’m sorry, but this is possibly the WORST morning show interview I’ve ever seen. Now, before I rip it apart, I want to make sure I’m clear about one thing…I TOTALLY respect Joan Baker and I actually just ordered her book on Amazon. She is a very talented woman and what she did in her book was fabulous and I’m very much looking forward to reading it.That said…WHO IS THIS WOMAN THAT INTERVIEWED JOAN — Gigi? SHE IS HORRIBLE!!! Joan has been so much more interesting and informative about voice over, being a voice talent, the life of a voice over actor, etc. in other interviews, but here the interviewer made her sound like a freakin’ moron. I’m sorry for Joan that she had to endure this tragic interview.At the same time Joan’s answers to questions like “what is the secret to voice-over?” kind of rambled on and didn’t make much sense. “So it does take a lot of courage, and it does take a lot of fearlessness, or naivety…haha” Ummm, I’m sorry Joan, what? Joan that comment escapes me.
5 Voice Over Guys in a Limo
I found this a long time ago, but I finally have a blog so I can pass it on to the rest of you voice over geeks. My favorite line is “hung like a horse.” It’s a clever video if you’re in the business. The clip features Don LaFontaine (arguably THE most successful voice over actor in history), Mark Elliot (who has been the voice over for Disney Animated films for years), John Leader (promo voice over for Access Hollywood, Celebrity Jeopardy, Access Hollywood, and more) Nick Tate (trailer and promo voice over for Apollo 13, Braveheart, FOX, and more) and Al Chalk (trailer voice over for Flushed Away, Snakes on A Plane, Scary Movie 4, and more)Five classic voice-overs you’ve heard a thousand times on movie trailers, TV promos, and national commercials. If you would like to research voice over Don’s site has some excellent advice for aspiring voice over talent on his Ask Don page.
