Recording voiceovers in the pillow fort today. The pillow fort is awesome! -John 🙂
This set-up actually works very well. I thought it might give you a few ideas if you're working without a professional studio like we are. The bottom was made by Jenny here at work, our videographer and fellow multi-media specialist. Recording voiceovers can be a very interesting process. You might think it boring, but I can tell you that when you insist on getting them right, there is a lot more to it than you might think.
Take the word applicable, for example...
When that word shows up as you read your script, it can feel like a mountain to overcome. Try saying it out load in the context of a long sentence and you'll see what I mean. To get it to work, you really have to slow your mind down, not race ahead, and focus your attention in each syllable while you annunciate it. Actually, it feels like a weird combination of anticipated focus.
How can you apply this kind of presence to what you're doing right now? Are you racing ahead and letting the present fall apart. Letting a future that does not exist degrade your mojo today?
Stop. Focus. Annunciate. Your legacy is being recorded...
