HAPPY NEW YEAR THOUGHTS, 2019!

I just saw a "larfy" spot for Libiberty Mutual Insurance, with a shadowy figure accidently revealed as Lady Liberty quietly chuckles in the background. Har-de-har! It was Geico worthy, but not as funny as G-Co's musical nostrils! Too bad Progressive typically tries but falls short, like the "becoming yer parents" spots. They pretty much lost any biz from this dad of 8 with that one! And now I’d guess that's a gig I'll never be offered by them. Oh well. Besides, I really loved working on the Travelers campaigns. They really hit the mark, even with a relative slacker VO guy (ask my relatives) ...yeah it was moi!

THEY were awesome!

Now, after finishing another vocal for the upcoming 2019 CD release, “Fan Cons & Flying Fingers”, I just sent out a gnu spot read for a new client! And I’m always struck by the feeling, “This sure beats workin' for a livin'“ ...not the oldie, but the actual gig! Oh Yeah!

And I hope & pray you love your job (& your life) in the 2019 year as well!!!

ALL THE BEST IN YOUR NEW YEAR!

Past Voice-Over Day Camps-Recapped!

On 2 Saturdays inJuly, 2016 & inn August, 2017, we "voice-camped" on Colorado2-day VO intensives, equivalent to about 4 weeks of an 8-week VO class (refer to "VO Essentials" on the tutorial page of this site). And, after guesting at Stan Lee's LA Comic Con on The Duck Tales Panel & with fellow VO Pros & fans, we added a Nov 2018 class. Using VO game-play, we explored tools & techniques to become highly skilled in a competitive market. We shared our exclusive tutorials & concepts to develop & enhance raw talent into “pro skills” for after the workshop & beyond. Among our roster, Ashley L., returned again from previous "Class Act Workshops" & booked a vid-game. Sisters Baylee & Allex H., who alsovoiced with us, are now working in LA. Tanja G. flew in from Raleigh NC, & is working on her new demo. Marcus W., Syd M., Rick R., Naiche W., & Tom L., all explored the "wild world" of voice-over. In 2018, Barry R., Don D., Thomas F., & Melissa W. all created alien dialogue, strong characters, & each upped their game. And Joe E. even drove over 10 hours from Idaho for the 2 week-end workshops & then hit the road with strong concepts, new skills, & a brand new voice-over character/animation demo. And Emily N. now has solid agent representation & booked her 1st pro VO “gig” just after we wrapped the class.

All have agreed that we’ve had a "fabtastic" time. And it must be true, evidenced by the fact that I always edit their VO for about 2 weeks after the class. "Whew! It can be tiring, but it’s truly awesome!" --Brian C.

Revues/Recommendations:

Phil Proctor-Actor, Writer & Founding Member of Firesign Theatre "I can't believe that anyone DOESN'T KNOW how enormously talented and successful Brian is! I'm actually amused that he's looking for work. Usually people are in line to hire him. Things must be weird out there!"

Craig Murray-Craig Murray Productions "Brian is one of the top pros in a very demanding industry. There are thousands of voiceover actors in this country. But...only a tiny handful get a chance to work their vocal magic on a regular basis. Brian is one of those select few. He's incredibly gifted as an announcer, a character voice and a human being. I should also mention that he's got a twisted sense of humor and a killer musical talent. Which makes him one of the most fun VO actors in the business to work with."

Blaine Stewart-Owner, The Stewdio "He is second to none in his professional voiceover work. One of the best in the business - anywhere. He has an incredibly versatile range which he provides on the first take."

Robbie Davis-Davis Group Entertainment "Brian Cummings is simply an amazing voice over artist. Some of DGE's most successful projects have Brian driving the brand. You would be smart to have him involved in your's."

Michael Bornheim-Actor, Producer at Monkey Town "As you might expect, Brian is incredibly proficient & talented when it comes to doin' that "regular" sorta VO thing ... but it's his character acting & comedic sensibilities that really make him one of the finest voice-over actors on planet earth. Now whether he's actually from this planet or not is still a matter of debate. Regardless, ...one of the best, as well as one of my favorite, people to work with."

Nicole Cruz-VO Producer "Brian is one of the best VO artists I've worked with! He is professional, has an awesome voice with a lot of range and is really great with direction (although he doesn't really need much). He makes the VO session very easy and a lot of fun!"

Jason Blinn-Actor/Former Student "I have taken Brian's class and hired him for private lessons. Brian's gift for bringing copy to life, and his ability to articulate that process make working with him a must for anyone who is serious about a career in VO."

Nicholas Burson-Actor/Former Student "Brian is one of the most gifted voice actors of all time. I have had the great honor of learning many things from this master craftsman. I fully endorse Brian both as an actor and as a teacher."
