EP 77 Joan Baker and Rudy Gaskins: Creators of That's Voiceover

An intimate look into the lives of Joan Baker & Rudy Gaskins.

Chuck and Stacey announce that Sennheiser/Neumann has become their official microphone and show sponsor. They are both now Neumann Endorsed Artists as well as the VO Buzz Weekly show. Big thanks to the wonderful Chris Currier and the entire team at Sennheiser/Neumann! Guests Joan Baker and Rudy Gaskins light up the set and allow viewers a very intimate look into their personal journeys.

Joan talks about her childhood dreams as well as the painful struggles she endured growing up as bi-racial child and the ways it has impacted her life. She tells the story of finding her way into the voice over business, by way of dance and on-camera acting, and how she didn’t let fear or expectation stop her from moving forward.

Rudy offers the reasons why he left Washington, D.C. for New York and how he first became aware of voice talent by doing documentary films. He describes how switching roles with a voice actor in order to experience their process has given him great insights as a writer and director.

Joan and Rudy discuss how their popular event THAT’S VOICEOVER came to be, what they get out of doing the event as well as their strategy for creating an experience that is both meaningful and beneficial for the attendees. They tell viewers how they can attend the upcoming THAT’S VOICEOVER event on August 17th 2013 at the Director’s Guild in Los Angeles, CA. Chuck and Stacey will be in attendance along with top talent agents, casting directors, voice talent and more. We hope to see you there!
