July is over, but life goes on!

So, we are quickly approaching the end of the middle of the year. Or... is it the beginning of the end of the middle of the year? I can never keep up with these things.

Anyway, some news:

- My official OFFICIAL demo reel is currently under construction, but is coming along quite nicely. I hope to have it up and running so I can send it to companies in the area before the end of August. The sooner, the better. :)

- I have recently been approached to work with a prestigious blog known as Voice Actors in the News! I'll be providing some news, info, and stories about Anime voice actors and their involvement with the industry and fans. So keep an eye out for more information there. :)

- Took the Adventures in Voice Acting Intermediate Voice Acting Workshop for the second time this past weekend. It'd been 8 months since the people had last seen me, and I think I brought the heat in this long-overdue session. Made some new contacts, and hopefully I'll have some big news for you guys in the near future.

And that's my news! Still looking for auditions in the LA/Burbank area, so if you guys hear about anything and want to pass along the information, I will love you forever and promise to buy you a plushie or stuffed animal when I'm rich and famous!

Enjoy the new Animation Voice-Over Reel to the right! I know I did. ^_^

P.S.: Those waiting for plushies and/or stuffed animals may end up disappointed because the likelihood of my being rich and famous is less than the likelihood of a penguin being struck by a bolt of lightning while driving a Honda Civic through the Gobi Dessert. Just saying. XD

Auditions, AX, and a New clip!!

Hey everyone! Sorry for the overdue update. It was work, then my birthday, then Father's Day, so I took some time to deal with all of that.

Now to fill you all in, I had some AWESOME auditions on Monday! Don't know how much I should say, but I got the chance to audition for some new characters the folks at World of Warcraft are throwing at all you gamers out there! That's all I'm going to say about that. But it was fun, and the casting director seemed impressed by my performance and said she would throw some more auditions my way as soon as she gets them. In the meantime, I now have to play the waiting game and hope I hear from them.

As to Anime Expo, I am still definitely going, and I am absolutely prepared to show my stuff at the AX Idol Voice Acting competition. Unless, of course, Blizzard calls me and has me come in and record before then. If I get paid, I officially cannot participate in AX Idol. But I'm going to keep practicing and really honing it until I got it perfect. :)

Finally, I did something else! I play the red tulip (I think it's a tulip; I'm bad with flowers XD) in this clip from Sailor Stars! It's actually part of the whole episode, but I was just this extra. Hope you guys enjoy! :D

Callbacks, Auditions, and Projects! (Oh my!!)

Been a bit busy again, but for good reason!

The truth is....

I was abducted by aliens.

No, really! Aliens of the auditioning kind! I got callbacks for an audition for a video game which happened yesterday. It was an awesome experience, and it will go down as my first official video game audition. More information about that when I can give it.

In the meantime, I continue to prepare for my final chance at the Voice Acting competition AX Idol at Anime Expo this year. This is going to be my final chance because after this, I'll be getting paid work. This is my chance to go out with a bang. It's my chance to announce to the world that I'm here, and that I'm ready to wow them. This'll be my 3rd time participating, and I've never made it to the finals. Even if I don't, if I do a good enough job for me, I will walk away happy.

That being said, it would be nice to make it to the finals. XD

Anywho, a few more projects should be coming out soon, so keep your eyes peeled for those. Other than that, I hope everyone is doing well. :D

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...

So, yeah. Hi guys.

Sorry I've been so behind on this. School has picked up, family stuff happened, and big things have happened.

So let's talk about the big stuff. I was asked to go to a read through at Fox Studios 2 weeks ago. It was for a new show idea that I can't say much about, but it was quite the experience. Don't know if I've been accepted into the production yet or not, but I eagerly await to hear back from the director. It's an interesting story, though. I met Cristina Vee through a mutual friend. Then, I she introduced me to a few other VO people (whom I know have the pleasure of calling friends), who introduced me to more, who passed my contact information to the director who sent me a Facebook message. So whoever came up with the idea of "6 Degrees of Separation" wasn't lying; I've experienced it first hand.

Most of my time lately has been spent working on a radio play that I had to turn in for my final for Intro to Audio Production. As of now, I never want to touch Pro Tools again. I have a great respect for the engineers now, which is exactly why I took this class. Needless to say, the final product will be up online later on, so check my Facebook for more info on that.

I've been actively looking for more auditions, and have submitted a few things, but nothing has come back yet. It's definitely time to update my demo reel. That is what I'll be focusing on over the Summer. In the meantime, if anyone sees something coming up, it would be awesome if you'd either pass on word to me, or mention me. Without an agent, I'm finding it hard to find stuff. But I'm not giving up any time soon. :)

Hearing Voices has officially ended for this semester. If you missed any episodes, head to http://tinyurl.com/HVEps to check them out. We return next semester with more awesome guests and a possible co-host! And keep an eye out for the upcoming Youtube and Facebook pages. :)

Other than that, I hope you're all doing well! I'm going to try and update this a bit more frequently, now that I'm not freaking out about school projects. XD
