Welcome to The Off Air Voiceover Podcast with Michael Ashtiany and Jen Lawton-Hunt. Join us for banter, personal opinions, and stories about being Voice Actors in this epic and ever evolving industry. As Voice Actors and Voice Overs we often work alone, but we don’t want any one of us to feel lonely. We love having a chat with other Voice Over Artists at conferences and networking events and we wanted to replicate that energy in this podcast. DON’T expect anything overly formal or to come out an expert, DO expect some friendly banter and honest, light hearted chat. You never know, you might pick up a tip or two along on the way and share a laugh as we take this journey together. Join the community! Share, subscribe and come say hi over on Instagram @off_air_voiceover_podcast - we can’t wait to meet you! You can find Michael at www.manchestervo.co.uk Jens website is www.jenlawtonhunt.com Instagram @jenlawtonhunt Instagram @manchester_vo

    It was an absolute pleasure to have @susievalerio join us on this week's episode.  Susie is a multilingual award winning storytelling voice artist, , experienced casting and production pro at @soundcutsltd, and all round bloody legend.  As a Casting Director in video games, we talk about what it's like to be on the other side, a bit about AI and how going global could help you book alot more work.... We created this podcast to help voiceovers feel connected through some honest banter and said that this wasn't necessarily the place to come to learn, well apologies we were wrong. We've learnt something from every one of our guests and never more so than from Susie. We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we did recording it. Let us know!   ------------------------- Susie can be found at www.susievalerio.com Instagram @ susie.valerio Michael can be found at www.manchestervo.co.uk Instagram @manchester_vo Jen can be found out www.jenlawtonhunt.com Instagram @jenlawtonhunt

    Hello! Enjoying the voiceover rollercoaster? Whether you're flying high or you feel like you're still waiting to get on the ride, being a voice actor can be tough. We ALL feel like this at times but we don't always share it in public, this can lead us to assume we're the only one who struggles. In this week's episode we share some of our personal challenges, insecurities and how we both struggle (and have struggled) with the dreaded Monkey Mind, including - Jen sounding like the queen once in a session - and Michael having an anxiety episode recording for Man City FC (Not because he supports Man United either...) Hopefully something will resonate with you and we can feel more connected as a community; through good times and bad. Hope you enjoy it and if you do please consider supporting us by sharing, liking and/or following our podcast!

    Hello! As many newcomers come into the industry and find a plethora of info to help them, we wanted to chat to someone who's on that journey to see how they're finding it, and maybe learn a thing or two ourselves along the way! So In this week's episode we chat to (relative) newcomer Shiraz Engineer (@oratrixvo) about following your own path, self belief, pink cats and the elation of booking our first gigs....which gives us another Storytime with Michael. There's alot of them.   For anyone who's new to the industry and want to hear how someone else is finding it too, or if you just fancy hearing a different perspective on starting out, this one's for you. Names dropped in ep3: @garrytrezza @voicereelguy Delphine Koall (LinkedIn) and Dermot Daly https://dermotdaly.co.uk/ Please consider giving us a like and follow if you enjoy our pod so more people can find it and enjoy it too!   ------------------------------------- You can find Jen at www.jenlawtonhunt.com  Instagram.com/jenlawtonhunt Michael is at www.manchestervo.co.uk Instagram.com/manchester_vo
