To better understand Loudness in our audio files, we need data. I’d love to have you share your Loudness values through a quick survey. Click through to take the survey! #justaskjimvo #studio #voiceover #competitivelyloud https://t.co/dgaUQP8hFc

Can we be sure our auditions are at the right volume? Delivering competitively loud audio should be approached on a case-by-case basis. #voiceover #homestudio #recording #justaskjimvo https://t.co/BpYgTIwo9p

Working toward “better” sound from our voiceover setup can be a constantly shifting target. What matters for VO auditions and delivered work? #justaskjimvo #voiceover #audio #audioquality #vo #recording #homestudio https://t.co/B0Z3cJ9iLK

this week's note for the booth wall: "More effort is wasted doing things that don’t matter than is wasted doing things inefficiently.

Elimination is the highest form of optimization."

Here's a #voiceover #studio #recording step that is easy to ignore. The simple "Save". But what happens when things don't work as they should? Some suggestions in this week's Tuesday Tech Tip: Be Safe, Be Saving... #vo #justaskjimvo https://t.co/Zpyna5q3nZ

"The teacher learns more than the student.
The author learns more than the reader.
The speaker learns more than the attendee.
The way to learn is by doing."

It’s easy to get focused on the tech end of things. Too easy. In this Tuesday Tech Tip, I talk a little about the Practice of What We Do https://t.co/tAVNn4Hk1t

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

I often say that we should eliminate the notion of ‘them'. ‘We' should be enough; the whole world is part of ‘us'. This isn't some kind of old-fashioned way of thinking, or an altruistic forgetting of your own interests. I want happiness and in order to achieve that, I need you.

@VoiceOneSF The curious thing is that a compelling villain sees themselves as the Hero.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

Why do we need compassion? Experience tells us that it brings inner strength. It also benefits others and we face many unnecessary problems when we lack it. To understand this we must develop a holistic way of seeing the bigger picture, which means we must use our intelligence.

Thank you @AaronBurkeVO ! Greatly appreciate your support.

@AaronBurkeVO Thanks for the kind words!

As tempting as new gear and faster computers may be, this Tuesday Tech Tip asks a simple question: What Matters More: Upgrades or Workflow? https://t.co/Rw8OiTTnby

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

When I meet people, I just think of myself as another human being, I don’t think about being a Buddhist, a Tibetan or the Dalai Lama, just a human being — I find it’s easier to make friends that way. And I find that a smile is a true expression of friendship.
