  • Old eps were better, show has lost its spark

    I recently went back and listened to old episodes recapping too hot to handle and the difference between those episodes and recent ones was stark. It’s no longer a fun-loving conversation, often bringing up other seasons or reality shows. Instead I find myself cringing at what Max and guests say as often as I do the shows they’re recapping. Max no longer does much of the sound board which was always a fun bit. The show is seriously missing Ben and his counter balance to Max going over the top. M... more

Interview With Voice Actor For Love Is Blind International Seasons Guy Mandia Jr. aka Sally Jawn
Q: How do you keep different characters distinct when you voice multiple roles?
Character distinctions come from physicality and the cadence of speech, with age differences and body language helping to differentiate Leo from Alessandro, along with careful attention to tone when switching to confessional scenes.
Interview With Voice Actor For Love Is Blind International Seasons Guy Mandia Jr. aka Sally Jawn
Q: What's the process like for dubbing a Love Is Blind episode?
We work with a side-scrolling teleprompter and a ribbon timeline; we watch the show while recording, and the director guides us to stay in sync with the lips and the character's tone, often without previews of the full episode.
Interview With Voice Actor For Love Is Blind International Seasons Guy Mandia Jr. aka Sally Jawn

I started with a Google search for voiceover classes and found Voice Masters in Los Angeles, where Mimi Maynard became my mentor and helped launch my career into live dubbing for Love Is Blind international versions.
