Update on My Goal: TIP One Dampen That Sound
When I started this blog, years upon years ago, I was just starting out. I had microphones and subscriptions. Now, here we are in summer 2015 and here are the things I've accomplished.
1) On Voices.com I have over 200 five star reviews.
2) I have done well over 500 non-union jobs.
3) I am represented for Union jobs by Access Talent. (though I am non-union)
4) I am represented for Non-Union jobs by Friedman West.
5) I have been able to make a living off of voice over.
I've decided to just update this blog with small tips. Nothing huge but bits and pieces that will help others.
Now, I must say, I'm not an expert on how YOU can become a voice over artist. I am an expert on how I became a voice over artist.
TIP ONE: Home Studio Basics
How to Dampen that sound
1) Location Location Location: Be careful not to place the microphone near a wall that is next to a fridge or some kind of constant sound. Constant sounds can be computers, laptops, windows, etc.
2) Quilts Blankets Whatever you Got: Any thick fabrics work wonders here. I've used quilts and towels. Tack them to the wall behind you. Put them on the mic stand itself. If it's really back, make some way to get the towel above the mic (not hitting it) and over your head. I know it's a pain but it will help.
3) Filters: There are some great filters available, I've heard Izotope has a great vo filter. My friends who are professionals seem to use it. If you have the cash get it. It has a setting called Voiceover that cuts out the sound.
4) Watch out for Wood. If there are wood floors, that creak is gonna suck. Put a patch of carpeting.
5) Dampening Foam. We're not talking acoustic million dollar foam but something cheap and small, it'll work.
6) BE CREATIVE: Use tacs, rubber bands, rope, hooks, whatever you can to get a good set up. Once that sounds good, it's off to work.
