faffcon 2 video – uploaded from 36,000 feet

Here’s is the NEW Faffcon 2 promo video featuring the voice talents of Bruce Miles, Philip Banks, Peter K. O’Connell, Anthony Mendez, Bob Souer and Diane Maggipinto.

Look, this is geeky of me I’ll grant you, but I think it’s cool that I edited most of this video and then uploaded it on to You Tube from my airline seat flying at 36,000 feet. Oh by the way, this blog post is coming to you from that very same altitude and seat.

Fair warning, I will be at this Faffcon…I guess I can register from my seat too. I hope you will come…it’s gonna be big.

Please promote the heck outta this video. Thanks.

Voice Talents Peter K. O'Connell, Kelly Klemolin and Zach McLain

There’s a hint of winter in the air in Green Bay, WI (read near hurricane gusts) but that’s the perfect weather to experience the world famous Lambeau Field.

But Peter, you say, its the middle of the week and the Packers play at the Jets this weekend!

Yes, I respond, but a football mecca is always open and it proved the perfect spot for a voice over meet-up with old pal Kelly Klemolin and now new pal Zach McLain, a voice and theatre actor in his senior year of college.

What a fun night visiting with Kelly, who continues to work steadily because of her great talent and to learn about Zach who is as personable as he is talented.

All of this while dining at Curly’s inside Lambeau Field (named after Curly Lambeau). I din’t even get into the stadium proper but the re-do the city did in 2003 makes the public areas quite stunning! Now I wish I could get to a Packers game! Even in winter cause if you’re going to experience the “real” thing, you gotta go all out!

Thanks Kelly and Zach for coming out.

Corinth, NY is not the end of the world but you can see it from there.

Kidding! But it is a long way from Albany…none the less it was a very worthwhile journey to the very lovely home of voice talent Bill Nevit who is a member of Talent Guild International. Talent Guild Internationalâ„¢ (TGIâ„¢) is a group of on-camera, voiceover, print, and theatrical talent that have pooled their resources to help them market themselves more effectively.

More importantly Bill’s wife makes kick-ass chocolate brownies.

I first found the group some years ago on the web and was reintroduced to them when I visited with my friend Kevin Readdean.

My thanks to my hosts Larry Julien, Bob Bailey, Bill Nevitt, Kevin Readdean and Elizabeth Page Colwell for their gracious invitation and a nice evening.

Voice Talents Peter K. O'Connell and Kevin Readdean

Via my friends at Amtrak, I visited Albany, NY this week and got to spend some time with Albany, NY-based voice talent Kevin Readdean.

Kevin has been doing voice over professionally for about 6 years and is fairly well known in the Albany market and beyond. If you haven’t yet subscribed to Kevin’s blog, you can here.

We had a terrific time talking about the biz, career challenges and opportunities – it’s the opportunities that I think Kevin has in great supply!
