The Beginning of Becoming a Voice Artist - Week 1 Blog CVAP

The Beginning of Becoming a Voice Artist 




This journey started in the White Cane Safety Day 2024 Booth where CVAP was introduced to me. 

The program is held every Saturday. It started it's first week last Sept. 06, 2024, the day before the training, with an acquaintance night filled with energetic vibes.

In the first week of the program, 
we get the feel of what it's like to be a Certified Voice Artist. 

We virtually met our mentors & voicemates. One of our mentors is Sir Navi who, with his experience, taught the myths, requirements & the culture of Certified Voice Artist Program (CVAP). 

As an aspiring CVA, I thought that voice imitating was a requirement to be a voice artist. But it is just one of the myths and that voice artistry is not just voice imitation. We all have something to offer & we just need to find our voice authenticity. 

The requirements of a voice artist is a willingness to be crazy, a team player & have a need to have a firm heart & mindset. You must strive to be creative, have a strong will & be passionate in your craft. 

There were two quotes from "Pochology" that stuck to me. The first is "Someone out there needs to hear your voice." It implies that the story you share can make an impact to other peoples lives. 

The other is "Have the Heart of the Lion, Vision of an Eagle & attack like a Hornet." Having a strong heart to accept the hardships that you will face and having a clear vision to not get lost in your path & make a positive impact to others in everything that you do like a sting of a hornet. 

Excited to learn more in the upcoming week of training.

In the past 3 sessions, ang dami na naming natutnan.  This week 3 session, we learned about Efficient Practice Tips & Habits, Voice Care, Fueling up  Your Creative Juices with mentor Doc. Onie & mentor Ma'am Donna about Dubbing.  Learning the practice tips  & habits is very helpful, lalo na iyong tip para hindi mo makain iyong words mo, kasi may times na nakakain ko iyong words. So, that's is one of the things that I need to practice.  Before I thought that voice artist is also like singing, that the only thing to avoid is drinking cold water before & after, but learning about voice care ay madami palang bawal na foods/drinks that can affect our vocal cords.  The tips in fueling your creative juices, it's not only in voice artistry that you can apply it.
