CC,

I will not be attending VOICE2012. On the other hand, I will not miss a Faffcon.

I will not be attending VOICE 2012 or Faffcon. If I had to choose, it would be Faffy time. Not in the cards this year.

Voice 2010 was great for me as being newish to the US market, I got to meet some amazing people.

However, the most I learned was when I was hanging out at the bar, going out for dinners, kicking back in the room with Connie (luv!) and general chit chat outside of the Voice2010 lectures ... ... hang on ... what a great idea! maybe we should form a conference where ...

'nuff said. FaffCon is da bomb. Hands down.
[however if peeps are around, I could be coerced into playing at Disneyland for the day! Smile]

I have to pay all my own expenses to speak at the GDC.
I can't afford the privilege of speaking at another conference, I'm afraid.

Must give Faffcon a bye as well.

I'm going to FaffCon and I'm going to VOICE. Why VOICE? I was asked to speak, I've never been to VOICE, and I've never been to Disneyland. I'm looking forward to it!

All that aside, I'm going to VOICE for my head and FaffCon for my heart...

I seem to recall that at VOICE2010 that i was specifically asked NOT to speak.

Of course I understand not being invited to be on the Promo Panel as they were only using local voices Laugh

And I'm sure Tom's heart will walk away a lot happier.

Faffcon is meant for working VO professionals; it's part of their admission requirements. VOICE conferences appear to be geared for newbies, wannabes, and part-timers, plus all the people who want to sell those attendees something. Sure, there's some valuable advice for professionals sprinkled throughout a VOICE conference, but price per pound Faffcon's the place to go if you're a working talent.

2012 - Nope. Not on the radar this (or any) year.

Faffcon #4 - Nope. Sad about that, though. See y'all at Faff5.

In St Louis? Maybe?

Yes, please...? Somewhere in the midwest, at least...?

I'm sad about missing 4 as well. Cry

wow for Bob Souer to skip out on a conference means something. Seriously.

I shan't be attending. I'd be Faffing up a storm were it not being held the same weekend as my daughter's birthday.
