Compatible with my belief that we are entering a golden age for indie productions. There's incredible talent available if you're willing to open your eyes and see it. They see a meager social media following. I see value, and a unique opportunity to build something amazing.

Just a tweet from the heart today: If you’re passionate about what you believe, remember... the goal of a conversation isn’t to 'win' but to understand. Listening doesn’t mean conceding. It means staying curious to learn what drives others and then maturing your own perspective.

Many people probably already know this, but this line of Star Wars: Empire Strikes Back was completely adlibbed by Harrison Ford. It serves as a great reminder why you should not put your actors in a box. Sometimes they can rescue you from a weak, scripted moment. Let them act!

Well, it happened again. When I first heard his voice, Hubert McCarthy blew me away with a sound so unique that I had to create a character for him. Can't wait to hear him bring the character of Arnold Decker to life. Hubert, welcome to Greasepunk Paradise!

Only a few days left to get your audition file to us for the role of Cecelia. If you missed out on our opportunities this year, we’ll be back in 2025 with an entirely new cast of characters for open auditions.

This applies to VO, too. Specializing in two or three media is way better for your sanity, but the best actors I know, with the most sustainable careers, still indulge their curiosity. They get lessons in other media & performing arts and nurture interests not adjacent to VO. Be well-rounded.

One challenge for small, indie storytellers like us is achieving true diversity and inclusion early on. It requires more than just research. As our team grows, we plan to hire writers who can create authentic, inclusive stories rooted in wisdom gained from personal experience.

Website tip: If you use social media as a means to network and find VO work, then we highly recommend you make your website as mobile friendly as possible. Here's just one metric from our own website showing that mobile users dominate more than half of our total website traffic.

We are absolutely delighted to share that @micthematt.com accepted our direct offer for the role of Dimitri! We can't wait to start working with him early next year when we begin recording for season 1. I don't think we could have found a better match for our spy hunter.

In all seriousness though… this has been one of the most rewarding experiences by being able to engage with so many talented people. We just underestimated the amount of coffee we would need to get through over 1000 auditions.

Good news: The Prologue script is 50% complete. Bad news: It’s an estimated runtime of 40 minutes. Guess we’re doing a two-parter now. Oh well. It’ll be fun.
