My sessions always feel so effortless and fun, and I go home so proud of myself. My auditions always feel painful, take forever, and leave me feeling worthless. I wish I knew how to trust my own work when I'm not actively on the job... 😑

Auditions can feel desperate. You want the gig, that's why you're auditioning. But what I do is only give everything *enough* time and don't linger on any particular part of the process.
I refuse to let insecurity creep in by robbing it of the time it needs.🎙️⏳🫂
All you can do is the best you can think of. The rest is up to the universe. And, plushies of friends cheering you on can be a good help. Just do your best to be kind to yourself. 🧸🎙️
I think it’s the difference between being somewhere that you know celebrates you vs somewhere you fear people judging you.
There is something very social and human about voice acting. I always have more nerves for an audition than a session or a live show. You aren’t worthless, I promise you that.
That’s a really great way of putting it. I find myself second-guessing everything, how loud or soft I should be, how high or low I should pitch my voice. Things that usually come naturally to me suddenly all feel wrong.
I get it, I definitely prefer when the audition materials do a good job at attempting to answer these questions for us, but sometimes our best is all we can do. And not being chosen doesn’t mean we did bad. It just may not be the right fit for the vision.
Watching Fairy Tail with my best friend and heard your performance in it. Your voice is inspiring to me. Thank you for putting yourself out there even when it's difficult to do.
