I WORK IN THE VOICE OVER INDUSTRY AS A(N)

Voice Actor

HERE'S A LITTLE ABOUT ME AND MY VOICE OVER EXPERIENCE

I thought I would give you some of my background. In 1976 I joined Covenant Players and travelled with them for the next 8 years. During that time I performed over 400 roles; everything from a bear to blind lady. This ministry became a spring board for my husband and I to start a children's ministry with puppets. By the time we were called to something else; 10 years later; we had a collection of 150 puppets( all the voices were mine) Drama has always been a passion of mine so when my husband and I moved to a small community in Canada, I performed in several community theatre musicals. I always audtioned for the "character" parts; not the lead. I would always tell people it was more fun to do the characters:) I also taught drama to children and adults with and without disabilities. This was something I truly enjoyed. Currently I am involved in Reader's Theatre in Olympia Washington and if I didn't have to have surgery(sigh) last year I had the role of Lady Bracknell in The Importance of Being Ernest. I became disabled Nov. 2008 but thank the Lord with medication I am able to carry on with life now. Oh, one last hat in (addition to my Red Hat) I wear is I am a sign language interpeter. When you look on my VO universe page you will see that I am my own character .

RECENTLY BOOKED PROJECTS

Currently no projects booked as 2010 is my year to get up and go.

LANGUAGES

English

VOICE DESCRIPTION

Youthful with a medium to high vocal range. When I sing in Church my preference is soprano. I can do the lower range especially for specific characters.

DIALECTS, Character voices and vocal impressions

I have listened and mimiced for my family's enjoyment the classic cartoon voices(I know I am aging myself) I also watched Carol Burnett(I consider her my hero:) I have been trained in vocal characterization, drama, puppetry and just starting in VO. When I was travelling with the puppet ministrty, I started with 2 puppets and finished with 150 puppets. Each of those puppets had a unique voice, character and distinct personality.

VOICES I AM ABLE TO PERFORM

Senior Male, Senior Female, Young Adult Female, Teenage Boy, Teenage Girl, Child Female, Baby

EQUIPMENT

Toshiba Laptop, C01U mic, Audacity

Thanks for organizing all of this! Where will be meeting? I have never been to LA so I have no idea what terminal I'll be coming to. Is there a central location where we all want to meet and then travel to the van? It does seem crazy that it is here already!
