For
those unfamiliar with voiceover work, a "punch-in" is the term
describing the process of making an on-the-fly correction to a voiceover.
If the talent screws up, the
engineer will go back a couple of sentences and play the recording while
the talent reads along (or sings.) At an appropriate place, the engineer
punches the "record" button creating an instant edit, replacing
the mistake with the live voice of the talent. The session then continues
with the corrected recording aleady in place.
I've
been trying to keep my friends and business associates entertained and
informed, using e-mailed newsletters on a more or less monthly basis.
I call it "MrVO Punch-Ins" because it's my way of correcting
the mistake of not staying in touch.
Most of these are just chatty little mini-blogs covering my observations
on anything from recipes to world events (with a bit of shameless self-promotion
thrown in.)
Browse
through them, and if you decide you'd like to join the MrVO Spam Club
and receive a copy via e-mail whenever I get around to putting another
one out, just ask!
