It’s the tenth episode of the VO School Podcast and this week I wanted to do something a little different. We are taking a look at the psychology of the voice actor!
How does one deal with disappointment, rejection and self doubt? What techniques can you use to combat performance anxiety and how do you deal with a person bringing negativity into a session?
We also explore tactics to help you get into character, perform at your best in the audition room and the recording studio, and how to unwind after a difficult session.
