George The Tech talks voiceover skills, studio savvy - and why you need to embrace your entrepreneur self for voiceover success

Wrapping up a short series about tech + media with THE voiceover tech recording wiz George Whittam, also known as 'George The Tech' and okay, as a voiceover pro for a while, dang...I learned a lot from this interview with George! We start at the beginning of his career, working at WYSP in Philadelphia (The Howard Stern Show, Opie and Anthony): joining the NFL Eagles Radio Network as a booth engineer and onto embracing his entrepreneurial spirit and heading off to Los Angeles, building sound studios and adding music to film (production mixing). We then move to his current career: helping voiceover talent not only sound better, but also helping them understand and fix what's going on in the booth - including mic technique, noise floor, acoustics and so much more. From working with the legends of voiceover like Don LaFontaine and Howard Parker, helping over 4,000 voiceover actors get better at sounding good, to his own podcasts 'The Pro Audio Suite' and 'George The Tech's Performer Friendly Podcast', join me in the studio with George as we get real about sound! 

About the Spotlight Conversations podcast:

Tune in as I invite friends inside my cozy linoleum free recording studio to talk about all things media - radio, television, music, film, voiceovers, audiobooks, publishing - if guests are in the spotlight, we're talkin'! Refreshingly unscripted and unusually entertaining, listen in as each guest gets real about their careers in the entertainment biz, from where they started to how it's going. Settle into my swanky studio where drinks are on ice and the conversation starters are music + media - always a deal breaker for the rock and roll homemaker!
