Great stuff Richard, I started with the porta-booth configuration myself and now I am “in the closet” after moving all my stuff around. I just tote my lap top into the closet, make the recording, take my laptop out and edit in my office. It works for now, but always looking for a better way!

No one should ever become so narcissistic as to believe that he has reached his pinnacle of success and can reach no higher. There is always room for improvement, and a true voiceover artist knows this.
Although is does not relate specifically to voiceover, a book entitled “Chi Running” by Danny Dreyer explains how golf legend Tiger Woods realized his form needed improvement. Yes, he was winning all of the tournaments, but it was more important for Woods to improve his form.
