  • Good in for for VO artists, but....

    I find out ironic that the "experts" in audio can't or don't have the ability to regulate their volume. I play the episodes straight through and some parts are low that I have to turn up the volume... sometimes George is blaringly loud and Dan sounds far away from the mic. Their intro is loud af, as are their commercials. It just takes away from them touting their expertise.

GTT Spotlight: Voiceover Audio Engineer and Demo Producer Henry Willard

GTT Spotlight: Voiceover Audio Engineer and Demo Producer Henry Willard
Q: How do you approach demo production to feel authentic yet be commercially effective?

Q: Tell me a little bit about what you do for voice actors and producers.
