HERE'S A LITTLE ABOUT ME AND MY VOICE OVER EXPERIENCE
I have been working as a voice actor and coach for 16+ years in San Diego, CA. My partner, James R. Alburger, and I own VoiceActing.com and The VoiceActing Academy. I am the author of Demo & Marketing Magic for Voice Actors and I am the co-Executive Producer of VOICE, (The VoiceOver International Creative Experience) which is the only convention specifically designed for voice actors.
I am also the VERY proud grandma to three beautiful little girls and one little boy - all under the age of 6. They keep me running, but being a grandma ROCKS! See their pictures below in the slide show! I'm just a "little" proud of them!

Thank you for your courtesy. Good morning.
Hi Penny,
I logged into this site for the first time in a LONG time and I see you sent me a message long ago that I never replied to; How rude of me! So sorry, but now I am replying (they didn't call me "Rapid Robert" for nothing!) and thanking you for your warm welcome!
Hi Penny,
Thank you for that very kind welcome, I very much appreciate it. I am just getting started on the site so your input is very helpful. I will be joining the group & following up soon
Regards,
Mark
Thanks so much for the email. Nice to be welcomed!! While I'm not a voice actor, I do voice casting. I run a voice over production company located in Los Angeles... We do mostly games and animation, while every so often... a commercial or two. Glad to have met you on here. Thanks so much! Best, Todd Resnick
Hi Penny thanks for the e-mail. Boy is your story like mine, only I just started actively pursuing VO and I'm 57 YIKES !!! I took classes at Voice One in San Francisco 5 years ago, got a demo done and the didn't do anything.
I am now taking a VO marketing class in LA with Tori Hartman. Hey, I need a mentor, someone in the business that can talk to me once a week for 10 min. for the next 6 weeks. Would you be able to do it? I would love to find out how you got where you are, what you love and hate about the business etc. Do you have 10 min. once a week ??
