Hello, Ladies and Gentleman, and welcome to Voiced By Webb
My name is Emanuel Webb, and I’m a freelance voice-over talent. So far, I’ve done audiobooks, commercials, and explainer videos that have been on the internet and on TV.
With this first episode, I want to explain what I’m doing here: I guess you could call this an audio blog, a solo podcast, or an editorial (or if you’re big on puns like me, you can call it a Webbitorial). This will be where I share my thoughts and experiences with pursuing Voice over full-time. It could have little tips on mistakes that I make that others might benefit from, or pretty much anything that comes to mind (whether those ideas should see the light of day, we’ll wait and see).
As far as what am I doing this for: I will be using this as a vocal workout and an accountability check to make sure that I’m putting myself out there. By putting out content showcasing my voice, not only does this help me get in repetitions when I’m not auditioning but also helps reveal a little bit more about myself, whether for sharing with the community or just simply reflecting on my growth and progression as a voice talent and as a person.
How often will I be posting these episodes: Although I would love to do this daily, I think a more realistic goal would be once a week at a minimum. If inspiration hits me sooner than that, there’s no reason to wait until then. As a matter of fact, waiting has been one of my biggest issues when it comes to this career I’m pursuing (now that I think about it, it’s one of my biggest obstacles in life overall). But I keep repeating this quote that I’ve come across so many times that it’s stuck with me: Fail Faster. This quote has been helping me with my mindset and making sure that I’m not only being more productive but making sure that I live with fewer regrets when I look back on my life.
Okay, I’m going to go ahead and wrap it up here. If you’d like to hear more, leave a comment on what you’d like me to speak on for the next episode. You can follow me on Twitter at Webb859, on Instagram at Webb.859, LinkedIn using emanuelwebbvo, or visit my website at http://www.voicedbywebb.com
