The New PASPort VO Audio Interface with George Whittam 25:33

acum 2 ani25:33

25:33

Tech guru George Whittam returns to the Voiceover Insider Podcast to introduce the new PASPort VO. This audio interface developed by voiceover and VO technical talent as a "group-think" product has moved from "wouldn't-this-be-nice-to-have" discussions to an actual product ready to be built in the space of only a few months. It's also something of a crowd-funding project, in that only 100 units are being produced, and the circuit boards don't start getting soldered until those 100 units are sold. This is an audio interface project George has been thinking about for a number of years, and contains as many voiceover-specific capabilities as could be jammed into a unit with a small footprint. (Perfect for a voiceover road kit, by the way.) George notes that Windows users are going to be particularly excited by the PASPort VO interface, because it can work around the audio drivers issues that many Windows users often experience when multitasking. After listening to George describe the development of the audio interface, jump over to centrance.com/pasportvo and take a look at the new unit.…

Tim Friedlander: Potential Health Insurance for VO Talent 25:23

25:23

Tim Friedlander talks to Julie about an effort by a new group, the National Association of Voice Actors (NAVA) to acquire health insurance coverage for voice-over talents (YOU!). This would be a potential option for non-union and union talents alike. But NAVA NEEDS YOU to fill out a very short form expressing interest in health insurance for voice actors so they can get proposals from health insurance companies! There is NO commitment involved; you're simply expressing interest. Please do that at www.NAVAvoices.org NOW! NAVA's closing date for submitting the health insurance census is the end of August (less than two weeks away) and they still need 100 to 150 names added to the census (they currently have approximately 900 names. Here's the catch: if you DON'T complete the census form, you will not be eligible for coverage should an insurance program be instituted this year; you'll have to wait until open enrollment for 2024. It's only expressing interest, so do it now! (The census form takes about two minutes to complete.)…
