I'll keep an eye out for you on TV...just did a hulu search for the show the other day! Did Claire Simon from Chicago cast u? I read for episode 2 a while back. Nice for Detroit. I saw Love Drugs 3 times (self, parents, husband) and thought Anne Hathaway was Lockyer each time. Well deserved Golden Globe nod! Happy New Year!

I saw you...did u c me? Nice work!
Tony Kramer September 19, 2010 at 11:13am

Jean,

Thanks for the info and direction. I've been trying to pick my agents brain about this very subject matter but it's difficult with her busy schedule. It's great to have a resource like VU to gain as much insight and information as possible. My goal, if I can get work in this industry, is to get a small studio set up in my home office and learn the ropes. The thought of being able to do last minute auditions from home, my on camera auditions involve two to three hour drive times, appeals to me and my wallet.

Thanks again for the time and input!

Hey...another fellow Clevelander! Well, actually I'm originally from the Cleveland area. I'm in the small Ohio town of Van Wert, OH now. But I get back to see friends and family in the Cleveland area a few times a year.

Your welcome message is fun!

Hi Jean;

I have heard nothing but good things about you from a couple of your former students and a high school friend who was a former film & video producer. As a new voice talent on the block it looks like we should meet. I am likeky to be looking for a local voice coach after finishing a VO course with VoiceCoaches.com in NY.

Take care and best of luck, lets talk sometime!

Dear Jean,

I was just reviewing old messages on voice over universe, and must have missed yours. Thank so much for your encouraging words, and I would love to teach in Pitts. I'm supposed to teach at Carnegie, so perhaps we can make that happen. Please e-mail me at patfraleyteaches@aol.com Regards, Pat

Good morning! I read some of your critiques and I would be honored if you would 'tell it like it is' for me! I have an animation demo up on the critique site. I can take it!! LOVE your honesty AND your website. Wish I were in Cleveland to join the fun!
