(Intense, supressed excitement)<\/em>
\nI remember the way my heart sped up and how my vision got all bleary outside the crystal clear center focus. Awareness was way into that obsessive danger level, deep into the meter’s red zone.<\/p>\n

(gets personal, advances story)<\/em>
\nOrson Welles had just gathered his entourage and seated themselves nearby at the restaurant in which I and a few friends were having lunch. I had recently started working in in Hollywood, and knew I would be bumping into many hi-calibre celebrities, but THIS was something for which I was totally unprepared, unnerved and (rule of threes!) unable to further function.<\/p>\n

Usually I can find voltage for my legs somewhere. But not this time. This person was such a monster in my book of inspirations, I was frozen, unable to go over and introduce myself. Finally, \/\/\u00a0 beat \/\/ <\/em>I would settle for leaning in towards his party’s general direction and listening to that magnificent voice order selections from the Lucy’s El Adobe menu.<\/p>\n

That’s the way it is with some of us and those we choose for our Shining Example: like a Santa in the store can make a five-year-old cry, chosen champions of our profession can be so huge as to frighten. But it’s OK. Probably will be discovered to be good for us. Already, we know honoring someone we’re aware of as having achieved something worthy can stimulate us to be our best, more consistently.<\/p>\n\"radio\n

(2nd transistion)<\/em>
\nRecently I met a brand new (to me) batch of Shining Examples. But, instead of intimidating, they were refreshiingly welcoming as well as strikingly talented. Some of us even shared a lunch table with many of Dan’s Blog readers and regulars at his recent International Radio Creative and Production Summit<\/a>, where we all gathered for the purpose of sharpening our skills. I attended as student, not teacher this time, and came away a fan. (oops, too syrupy)<\/em><\/p>\n

Broadcasting and acting are the kinds of professions usually chosen because the performer really likes doing it. They take quite a risk pursuing these careers and, further, must adopt strategies for the different psychological hurdles they will face. Knowing just this general backstory alone, I celebrate each job bravely landed.<\/p>\n

When daring souls gather to evolve and get better at what they do, like a particle generator gone berserk, anything can happen, much of it all at once.\u00a0 And when it’s an ODay learning space, like a Bob Dylan show, you know it’ll be full of good material, but you never know the song set.<\/p>\n

Boy, was it.<\/p>\n

Home now, glutted with cool tips, insights and inside advice, I’m assured this next generation of VO performers will be the names which future aspirants\u00a0 will look up to as their Shining Examples, and of whom much will be… (pause)<\/em> well spoken.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
