@finelinelexie Heads up, y'all. #VoiceActors, this is going to be good - I was repped by an agency two weeks after working with Lexie on my commercial demo. Keep creating y'all.

[lexie (she/her) @finelinelexie]

To all the #VoiceActors in my community and those I have worked on demos with in the past, I have an exciting announcement to share soon about #DemoReels!

Stay tuned 👀

[Lenard Liebe VO 🎙️ @lenard_liebe]

Hey #VoiceActors, if you are asked for up to 3 takes on three separate lines without other instructions....do you ABC, ABC, ABC, or do you AAA, BBB, CCC? Keep creating, y'all.

[Lenard Liebe VO 🎙️ @lenard_liebe]

@cryolei It depends on the agreement. My agency is not exclusive but I do need to be careful that I don't compete against the agency for specific jobs on my own.

Excited to announce @AudibleACX that “OutSide In” is now echoing in #audiobook form. For those who feel too much, think too often, and never quite belong—this one’s for you. #JuneIsAudiobookMonth
Now streaming. #OutSideIn #VoiceOfTheMisfit #AudibleApp https://t.co/gqWTDbAYb7

@AudibleACX Thx & I continue to tout the author's @GeorgeKevers collaboration throughout production as being a favorite factor. He suggests but not directs, let's the creative emerge and breathe, then waits for the surprise.

Contributing to #JuneIsAudiobookMonth with my latest #audiobook and colab w/ author @GeorgeKevers. #AudibleApp @audibleACX This isn’t a gospel for the faithful. It’s for the restless. The reverent. The beautifully undone. You’re not lost. Just listening.

AI generated content should be required by law to inform its viewers, both audibly and visually that it’s AI generated.

Imagine how many jobs are going to be lost because of this insane shift in the industry over the next few years.

Don’t support these people

I know, I know every pass or rejection is just 1 step closer to the next gig, but still strikes a nerve. While we see lots of great posts of castings on here (congrats) imagine if we saw all of the rejections, yikes! I am grateful for the gigs I have now. Keep creating, y'all!

How to fit audiobooks into your day: (it’s easier than you think).

Little moments = big story time.
You don’t need hours—just press play.

@AudibleACX Thanks @AudibleACX ! Two main things: read it first and then connect with the author to align with the approach and narration style. Oh, I guess three things...prepare to have FUN with it!

[Lenard Liebe VO 🎙️ @lenard_liebe]

Excited to announce #audiobook @AudibleACX that 2/9 of the Paradox Principles is out! Some books teach. Others transform. Breaking Strong is a reckoning with the myth of weakness https://t.co/tHSW4mXaOZ Creators..this one spoke to me as I narrated it. Keep creating, y'all.

[Audiobook Creation Exchange (ACX) @AudibleACX]

@DreamingAltair Day job is fulfilling and rewarding non-profit work. Fun job is VO.

If there is a positive about AI voice (and it is probably the only one) is if there is a demand for it, it tells me there is plenty of work out there that needs human voices. #hireanarrator #hireavoiceactor as we are more fun than machines. Keep creating, y'all.

Voice Actors...🎙️

You don’t need a studio in LA to be a force in this industry. Talent, drive, and consistency speak louder than geography.

Keep showing up!

[Lenard Liebe VO 🎙️ @lenard_liebe]

Look, I get it....we are busy & the hustle & grind is tough, but it is so great to finish an #audiobook ahead of schedule. Can breathe and focus on the business side this weekend, also a few auditions. Keep creating (and relaxing), y'all.

[Lenard Liebe VO 🎙️ @lenard_liebe]

@AudibleACX So simple:
Thank the author for the gig, and start a convo. Research but don’t creep.
Get to know them.
Ask for input & be ready for the answer.
Work with the author not for the author.
Check in along the way.
HAVE FUN!
Would love for @georgekevers to weigh in as an author.

I always forget how tedious editing is until I realize that my palm is tender after using the mouse so much as I get to the end of an audiobook. Worth every minute (or hours as it were) but time for a new mouse set-up and position. Keep creating, y'all.
