Hey Matt. I did do that one. Too rushed in one take to be really effective. Weekend Workout is so populated now that I'm afraid it may not last. The folks that are doing the critique are now faced with 60+ auditions. That's tough for anyone with an already busy schedule.

...did anyone else not get their critique back from the session we were gifted with at faffcon3?

i never heard anything back, although the praise i received from david goldberg and dan friedman was gratifying enough.

just curious.

Agreed, great critique, that's so awesome, I did a few weekend workouts a month ago and i'll be back in it next month. It would have been so awesome if it were personalized like chuck. Sweet stuff and informative as well.

Oops! I wasn't in your thingie, so I didn't know the scoop. David Goldberg sent me the feedback! I didn't understand that you guys hadn't received it, and I didn't quite know what to do next...

Come to think of it, that's still true! If anyone would like to a) explain this to me and b) be the captain of whatever the next step is, I'd be so grateful!

The link to the results of the Faffcon workout are on the Voiceregistry page under the past workouts. The guest director was Hugh P. Klitzke. You may need an account to be able to see them, but I'm not sure???

You would need to be registered to just enter via the voiceregistry site. However I think this link that Fran posted may work. It does for me.

Chuck --congrats on the positive feedback. I also did the workout this week and I thought his critiques were pretty much spot on. I had specifically listened to your audition and then your critique and thought they were both awesome .... so maybe you should consider branching into promos a bit more Wink

And, like you, I am also a bit nervous that perhaps these weekend workouts won't last and/or that somehow the format will change a bit. It's a huge chunk o' time for working v/o talents/agents/producers etc to take out of their schedule...but it's an awesome opportunity to get feedback and I'll keep doing it as long as it lasts.

Congrats again!

That was some great feedback, Chuck, and well deserved! I really liked your audition. I'd planned to submit one but psyched myself out. Have determined to definitely do it this weekend though! Now I've put it out there, I can't not Smile

I'm with Amy on the week-end workouts. Good stuff, and good for finding out your weak spots, so you can go get some proper training and focus for improvement.

Ok, so I finally did the Weekend Workout. And it wasn't a disaster Smile

Well, not a total disaster. Marc Graue said some good things about my read (yay!) but my new laptop/preamp system totally failed me. Major hiss going on! Am relying on my consult with George Whittam tomorrow night to pinpoint (and fix!) my problem. In the meantime, I'm halfway through an internet commercial job, so I'm really hoping I get this worked out quickly.
