Voice

From real person to announcer; from mom next door to your Fairy Godmother having a grumpy day, Melinda is a seasoned voice actress with a wide range of deliveries. Fast and a pro in the studio.

Do you have the right voice for the job?

Director Martin Ritt calls it the ‘vein of gold’, a certain territory, a zone that actors get in where they’re doing exactly what it is they’re put on earth to do. You know a vein of gold performance because it’s dead on-target.
Doing voiceovers is my vein of gold. From the minute I stepped in front of the microphone I realized I had discovered my passion: to use my voice to create audio that would inspire the listener to take action. It becomes a fun challenge to discern exactly what it is that a director wants and to give it to them in the least amount of takes possible. It helps too, that I’m also a writer, director and producer — understanding the big picture enables me to deliver the read you’re looking for more quickly.
30,000 voice projects later, I still love it as much as the first voiceover I did, which you can hear here if you’re curious!

Don’t Believe Everything You Think

  I’m listening to the Boston Marathon coverage in the background as I write this post. Each of the elite runners has worked to earn a top starting point, and each one is focused on one thing—crossing the finish line ahead of everyone else.   As a longtime runner myself, I have great appreciation for …

Seeing With the Eye of Your Heart

Our whole business in this life, is to heal the eye of our heart, whereby God may be seen. I heard this quote in a conversation the other day, and it really made me think about the value of doing personal growth work. We often live inside a barrier of our wounds, and the energy …

Time for some Christmas Festivi-tea!

Isn’t it just plain fun to dress up and have a holiday tea party? One of my close girlfriends has a birthday close to Christmas and we use that excuse to pull out the wedding silver, get some yummy (and pretty!) tea sandwiches, and enjoy a few hours together during the holidays. This group of friends …

SO….WHAT’S THE GIFT IN THAT?

We’ve all heard about how important it is to find things to be grateful for, right? It’s easy to be grateful for kindnesses shown to us from others; finding a parking place close to the door in a full parking lot; a spontaneous hug from your child. But what about being grateful for harder things: …
