When I walked into the newsroom today there was free pizza. ”Why?” I asked the nearest reporter. ”The fires,” he said. “Oh,” I replied…not having the foggiest notion what he was talking about. ’Turns out the fire season came to Southern Nevada today, and I had no clue ’til I walked into the newsroom. (We sometimes get free food when there’s no time to take a break in the coverage.)
The important lesson here is that the veil of self-assurance can be quickly and easily ripped from your over-confident face in a flash.
Here I was a newsman, who didn’t have a clue about the news.
Similarly, I’m a voice-actor, who apparently is the LAST to know about Harlan Hogan’s excellent list of voiceover coaches, pleasingly arranged by region.
Harlan is no slouch, and is certainly one of the top voiceover coaches himself, so while I haven’t vetted this list myself, I feel fairly safe in passing it along. A quick run down the list affirms many of the names I’d use in a second, and plan to use in good time.
So, there you go…free pizza, and a heckuva list. I’m humbled.
