Interview With Creative Director, Monte Bowden – Part 2

February 19, 2020 by Jodi Krangle

Here’s the second part of my interview with Creative Director, Monte Bowden   We talked about his philosophies on directing voice talent and trusting his editors, discovering a brand “voice”, consistency in branding, and his thoughts on creating a deeper connection with those who his clients hope to serve.

We also spoke about things like:

  • How he gives direction to the voice talent he works with, helping them find the “why”
  • Consistency in branding – both in the tone of that brand and in the voice talent used
  • How other ads have used INconsistency to create interest and engagement
  • Authenticity and how it plays a part in advertising and fundraising
  • How movie trailers seem to be getting more compelling
  • His love of work that’s “cinematic”
  • What he’s working on right now
  • How a client of his is helping people to understand transparency in healthcare and leading in that field
  • Working with a children’s hospital and telling their caring stories
  • How social media might play a role in hiring voice talent – and whether or not it should
  • Monte actually interviews ME for a little bit. 😉 (He asks some excellent questions!)

You can find more information on Monte and Amperage on their website at https://www.amperagemarketing.com and on Facebook at https://facebook.com/AmperageMarketing.

Interview With Sound Designer & Studio Owner, John McClain – Part 2

January 15, 2020 by Jodi Krangle

John McClain knows a thing or two about sound.  For one thing, he’s the owner and lead sound designer/mixer at The Dog and Pony Show in Las Vegas, Nevada (https://www.dogandponystudios.net/).  For another, he won a Grammy for his work with the late, great George Carlin, and an Emmy for his work with HBO on the series 24/7, his work with PBS on the show Outdoor Nevada and his mix of the documentary African Americans: The Las Vegas Experience.   If that’s not enough, he teaches a class in Tech for voice talent through the Voice Actors Studio – https://www.thevoiceactorstudio.com/ – owned by Melissa Moats (https://www.ladyluckvoiceovers.com/ – another fantastic voice talent in Vegas) and another course on Sound for Film at UNLV.

The second part of our discussion covered a bunch more topics like:

  • Voice actors and editors need to pay attention to the tempo of a script
  • How sound that’s inconsistent or simply not good, can make a person turn away without knowing why
  • Information on a book John uses in his course called The Sonic Boom (https://www.amazon.com/Sonic-Boom-Sound-Transforms-Think/dp/0544570162)
  • How sound allows you to time travel
  • When he first became conscious of sound and began to love it
  • How architecture has its own sound
  • Some information on his latest sound design projects
  • More information on his podcast, VO Inertia (https://anchor.fm/voinertia)
