    Well, here we are, back with our first guest in the B-Hive after a year-long hiatus! Thanks, all of you, for your patience! It's been quite a year! Now, in truth, I recorded this podcast with Kirsten well over a year ago, so there may be some outdated bits of info, but let's not sweat the small stuff, okay? We're still in Season 3 and the essence of the podcast remains! Kirsten Krohn is my first guest in the Hive hailing from NYC and the first guest I've actually never met in person. She is a VO powerhouse, my friends. At it for over 20 years, Kirsten landed one of the first voiceover jobs she ever auditioned for – as the national brand voice for General Nutrition Centers. She quickly added Strawberry Jello and Godiva to her ‘menu' of jobs. Today, her repertoire includes a multitude of national campaigns, promos, children's books and narrations for Lifetime, The Discovery Channel, The Smithsonian Channel, HBO, and others. In between voice gigs, Kirsten has also had success with on-camera commercial campaigns and has appeared in webisodes, performed in local community shows and continued her theatrical education with periodic classes at HB Studio, People's Improv Theater and continued learning through private coaching. Her most prized creations, however, are her four sons: Caleb, Simon, Oliver, and Asher. Kirsten grew up in the suburbs of New York City and now lives back in the New York Metro region with her husband, Douglas, a pediatrician, and their family. Kirsten has an AMAZING presence of mind, heart, and soul, and aside from her remarkable talent, brings a cool head to her vo business. There are some stellar gems in this one.

    Susan Palyo has been working for Voicetrax West since 1990 and has been the resident demo producer since 1996. Susan grew up in Springfield, Illinois. Her passion for music led her to believe that pursuing a degree in Commercial Music from Millikin University in Decatur, IL would be a great idea since she wanted a job where she didn't have to wear a dress. Shortly after graduating, Susan packed up her car and drove to Los Angeles to pursue a career in recording. Susan landed at the famed Cherokee music studios as an assistant engineer. She got to meet lots of cool celebrities, and she didn't have to wear a dress. But, the pay didn't measure up. So, she looked around and landed the position of head engineer at Voice Trax West. After engineering loads of commercial sessions and assisting in demo production under Thom Pinto and Cindy Akers, Susan became the full-time demo producer. Since then she has produced hundreds of demos for many aspiring and successful VO actors including Grey Delisle, Debi Derryberry, Robert Clotworthy, and Stew Herrera. Her demos are respected by all of the top VO agencies in town for their quality and contemporary style. Susan also has a great reputation as an instructor and director and teaches workshops and private studies in commercial and animation voiceover. Susan lives in the San Fernando Valley with her husband, daughter, 3 dogs, 3 cats, and 2 hamsters. She even wears a skirt once in a while.

    What? Men in the B-Hive? Sacrilege! Nonetheless, here they are. Two of the most prolific voice actors of their generation, and two of the kindest friends I've known. Please welcome Townsend Coleman and Thom Pinto from the podcast studio at VO Atlanta 2018. The creator of VO Atlanta, Gerald Griffith, asked me to host my own podcast while in attendance at the conference, and I threw a curve ball by inviting two distinguished male voice actors in to the Hive. A woman's prerogative, I say! We do a lot of reminiscing - 'cause we're old-school like that - but there are a few good lessons in here, as well. With time, comes wisdom :-) These are two men who'd never want you to put them on a pedestal, and prove it by sharing not only their successes, but their struggles. What a privilege to have them as guests.  I'll be back next time with more WOMEN in voiceover! In the meantime, enjoy these two gems. 

    Season 2 - Special 'Cast - A Predator Among Us

    Play Episode Listen Later Mar 8, 2018 59:44


    This episode of the B-Hive takes a turn toward a difficult subject: Sexual assault. On February 8, 2018, CNN.com published an article entitled "They're Not Celebrities. Their Voiceover Coach isn't either. But #MeToo Changed Their Lives." In that article 16 women were stated as having been assaulted by formerly esteemed New York voiceover coach, Peter Rofé. As of today, March 7, 2018, more than 50 female voice actors have come forward to say that Rofé manipulated them, exposed himself to them, and/or sexually assaulted them, all under the pretense of helping them "find their vulnerability" for the good of their voiceover careers. The process of this manipulation varied among his victims, and each woman's story is unique. In many cases, he moved slowly - 6 months to a year - to engender their trust. Other times Rofé struck quickly on his prey, as if his behavior was not predatory, but simply an accepted part of his "unique coaching technique."  Every actor knows the value of having a trustworthy and honored coach, and our job as actors is indeed to discover our vulnerability, as we learn to reveal the complexities of the human condition with authenticity, whether on stage, in film, or in the voice over booth.  Voice actors Heather Costa and Becky Poole, both victims of Peter Rofé's sexual impropriety and abuse, join me in the B-Hive to discuss their particular experiences with him. What we discover is that abuse at the hands of a trusted mentor is difficult to parse, often taking years to do so, and that those on the outside looking in are all too eager to blame the victim.  If you or anyone you know has been victimized by Peter Rofé and you'd like some support, please send an email to voiceoverjusticeclub@gmail.com. All communication is treated confidentially.  *photo credit: Kendrick Brinson and Kholood Eid for CNN.

    Play Episode Listen Later Dec 21, 2017 54:27


    This is the first of a two part series. Today's podcast is all about failure, and next week's will be all about looking ahead to 2018. Failure. Ya. Everybody goes through it. And believe it or not it is the cornerstone of success. That's taken me a while to understand, but I've really found it to be true. Yet somehow whenever we experience a failure, we think perhaps we are the only ones who do, that every successful person must lead a charmed life void of any stumbling blocks. So, to help eradicate that myth, I've asked a collection of Women in Voiceover to share their own experiences of failure, how it has shaped them, and how they've used a less than stellar event to shape their goals, their work ethic, and their approach to life. The stories here vary in their degree of "intensity," if you will, but all of the experiences shared here are uniquely valuable and transformative. My hope is that you will discover that your own failures can serve you in positive and productive ways if you are willing to reframe and learn from them.  Huge thanks to the women who participated in this podcast for their willingness to be vulnerable and share some of their most difficult moments.

    Ladies and Gents allow me to introduce the one and only Mari Weiss. Mari has a career in voiceover spanning more than 2 decades, doing all kinds of national spots and campaigns over the years, as well as promo, narration, video games such as Mafia 3 and Guild Wars. She does both commercial and theatrical on camera work, and her roots run deep in the theater, having earned a Master's Degree in Acting. I gotta say Mari is the female prototype in voiceover I was thinking of when I started this podcast. Her voice and her face are distinct and ubiquitous, yet I'm fairly sure her name is new to you, primarily because she's spent more time with her shoulder to the wheel working than she has promoting herself or seeking the spotlight. If there's anybody you should attempt to emulate in terms of commitment to the work, Mari's your woman. And frankly, her voice is buttah. Enviable to say the least.
