ATLA KIDS VO WORKSHOP

It was a full day.  Fifteen kids in the morning and eight in the afternoon.  I'm surprised I had a voice left by the end of the day.

Here's a picture of the first workshop - I'm thinking that Stuart liked the odds in the room.

PJ's Animation Demo

Just finished PJ Butta's animation demo.  I love it! Had a blast putting it all together with PJ and Zach.

Audition Techniques at The VO Connection

Had a blast with this crew.  The last night is always bittersweet, I get attached but have to set them free....

Lunch at Canters

Before our dear friend Nile went back to Egypt we had a delicious deli lunch at Canters.  I joked with her that it would probably be a while until she had some good Jewish food so she should really enjoy some matzoh ball soup :)

Paul Nobrega's Animation Demo

Had a blast making Paul Nobrega's animation demo.  Take a listen:



That moment after we've listened to the demo and are so happy with how it turned out!

Finally here!

On Christmas Eve we dined at Mark's house and enjoyed the fruits of a wonderfully abundant life... champagne, scampi, salad, smoked mozzarella mushroom lasagne, ricotta cheesecake, cookies, wine wine and more wine....life is good!

Mark and Neal put it all together.  Everything was amazing!

This is what dreams are made of.  Food of the Gods, beyond delicious.  Once a year bliss....can you tell how much I love this lasagne?

Rum balls, Mexican wedding cakes and biscotti:

Enjoying my ice wine in a tiny little glass:

Christmas finally arrived.  Zuri helped us open presents.

Then off we went to visit our family.  Here we are with our dear (OMG, you're almost 21!) niece Cecelia.

The day after Christmas - I can't believe I found myself at Don Cucos but Mario was in town so the party continued....

Walking it off the next day....

A visit with Vince's family...

 With Mom and Uncle Bob in Santa Barbara....

New Years Day atop Mt. Feuer.  Loved the icy weather - who wears a coat in L.A. in the day time?  I do.  It was 50 degrees!

The Candy Thief

Matt as The Candy Thief

Behind the scenes of the photo shoot.  Vince and Richie dressing the safe...stuffing it full of candy.

What a star!

It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas....

More fun with props....

The Stooges Fest

I look forward to The Three Stooges Festival every year not only for the laughs but also to see old friends that I've known since Jr. High School.  Now their kids are in college!  Damn time flies.

Fun with Props
