DB Cooper, voiceover talent and hostess of the VO-BB.com, gave a brilliant presentation at the VOICE 2007 conference on doing voiceover work for video games.
Stephanie, over at Vox Daily, has done a superb job of summarizing Deirdre’s presentation. This completes my series of posts about the presentations at VOICE 2007. I’ll have more stories to share with you in the coming days. And, I’m indebted to Stephanie and her team for their great work documenting all that happened in Las Vegas. But, let me close this post with these thoughts.
The experience of VOICE 2007 was amazing on at least 2 levels. On the one hand, we had a chance to learn from, meet and interact with some of the very top people in our voiceover profession. Rodney Saulsberry. Bob Bergen. MJ Lallo. Frank Frederick. James Alburger and Penny Abshire. Connie Terwilliger. Deb Monroe. Pat Fraley. Don LaFontaine. Just to name a few.
In addition, we got to spend a week sharing time, conversation and relationships with over 200 people who are just like us, voiceover freaks. After spending years living and working in small padded rooms, modified closets and basements, converted bedrooms and the like; to be able to be with so many people who understand, well, that was nothing short of amazing. I’ll let you know about VOICE 2008 as soon as I know. And I hope you’ll be there, too. I’ll do everything I can to be there, where and when ever “there” is.
