Recording Danni Darville's Animation Demo

Demo day for Danni.  We had a blast recording her animation demo.  It felt so good to get out of the office and in to the studio.  I love recording demos, they're so creative and full of new beginnings energy.  


Even though I've known Danni for a year, this is the first time I met her in person.  She's even more lovely in real life!  When you're sharing your creativity you become close friends in a matter of moments.



Rebecca Davis's Birthday Party

 I love voiceover people.  We enjoyed ourselves so much at Rebecca's birthday bash at the Red Lion Inn.  A room full of talented people, all so kind and giving, no airs, helpful, fun and creative.  Being at this party reminded me why I love working in the voiceover field.  When you go to "actor" parties it's very "who's who, what have you done" type of feel.  But go to a vo party - everyone is sharing and caring and no phony vibes to be found.  Big difference in life.   Glad I figured that out, I'm much happier since I did :)

Desert X 2025

 I always look forward to Desert X art installations.  It's my favorite art show because it's all huge art pieces set in the desert around Palm Springs so you get art and views and desert air and sky all wrapped in to one experience.















After a drive to Rancho Mirage and our first art installation...it was time to eat.  We drove towards our next art piece and wound-up at Manhatten In The Desert Deli.  And who did we sit next to?  Blast from the past t.v. kid...Danny Bonaduce.  Even though he was like 10 in The Partridge Family and now he's in his sixties...you still recognize his face as soon as you look at him.  








Onward to this very cool exhibit:









That's a warm wind blowing up my dress.  I'm not that fat, I swear. :)


Next stop:  Soul Service Station




Then on to:

Many times I'll see a photo in my head, try to take the photo, give my camera to Vince to do it.  The first one is my version, the second is Vince's.

Hard nature in hard nature...
