Laci Morgan: Voice artist, actor and illustrator in San Bernardino, California.

Hi everyone! I'm Laci. I am a voice actor who specializes in kid/teen voices and upbeat narrations. I love what I do! I have provided voices for commercials, video games, audiobooks, children's apps, and toys. My favorite recent job, however, was getting to voice-match Twilight Sparkle (speaking and singing) for Hasbro's My Little Pony Live show in Dubai. That was a dream role for me, and I hope to get to voice more animated characters in the future! I love meeting fellow industry peeps, and would love to connect with you if you're searching for a versatile voice actor for your projects. My website is www.lacimorganvoiceovers.com. I also have a background in animation. I majored in it in college, and still work as a freelance illustrator/animator and graphic designer at www.scribblesparkstudios.com. The two careers really go hand in hand, and I enjoy it so much. Nice to meet you all. Hopefully we'll get to work together at some point!

I have a pair of new character shoes that are SUPER slippery on the bottom. I'm afraid I'm going to break my ankles when my feet slide out from under me! In the past, I've done the basics of scuffing them up outside a bit, or sticking rubber "shoe grip" adhesive pads on them. Well, I've tried both on these shoes and I'm still sliding. The adhesive grips seem to work ok on the ball of the foot sole area, but the heel is still pretty slippery. I tried cutting a small bit of the grip and putting it there, but the sticky part doesn't stay and the grip just slides off as soon as I turn or slide, then I have sticky glue goo on the shoe. I'm not really a dancer (just do musical theatre, I'm more of a singer who can fake her way into dancing with practice, haha), but am trying to break them in for an upcoming audition that will have dance in it and don't want to slide to my death or look spastic! What do you all do?

I recently tried the free trial of Voicezam, a service for voice talent that lets you create a customizable demo player you can embed in your website or send to potential clients. I've heard good things about it, so I wanted to see how it worked. Here's my initial impressions, and a few things I learned after talking to Bob Merkel, Voicezam's creator. Plus I have a discount code for anyone else who wants to try it! Let me know what you think if you try it out. http://lacimorganvoiceovers.com/review-voicezam-demo-system/

Cool! I just found out that a video game I voiced a character in (Nicole) has recently been released. It's a zombie shooter game called Contagion. I don't have a PC, so I can't play it at the moment, unfortunately. I'm gonna need to find one to borrow just so I can hear myself get attacked by zombies, haha! www.contagion-game.com

I figured it was time to finally separate my voice over services from my design services (until now they've used the same website), so I spent last week creating a new VO website. Still needs more content, but it's getting there! www.lacimorganvoiceovers.com

Hello Stage 32! I'm excited to have found this place. I'm a voice actress who has been working from my home studio recording lots of fun projects, and I've also just created an online course for other actors who want to get into VO work (not sure if this is allowed, but it's at www.udemy.com/beavoiceactor if anyone wants to look at it! Not trying to spam, just sharing a recent accomplishment...hope that's ok!) :) I also loooove doing musical theatre, though it's been a few years since I've had the chance, as I've got a toddler. Hoping to get to do one this fall in my area if I can make it through auditions! My faves are Les Miserables, Wicked, and The Scarlet Pimpernel. In addition to all that, I run a freelance graphic design and animation business from home, so things are pretty busy! Anyway, looking forward to some interesting discussions with all of you!

Wow, creating classes is hard work! I get asked all the time how I got into doing voiceovers...so rather than giving the really long answer, I decided to just create an online course I could direct my fellow actors to! Thus, "So You Want to Be a Voice Actor: Breaking Into Voiceovers" was born. Check it out at https://www.udemy.com/beavoiceactor/?couponCode=LACISENTME and use code "LACISENTME" for $20 off until the end of July! Hope it helps someone avoid some of the mistakes I made early on in trying to become a VO artist.

How many voice actors have looked int/ considered doing audio books? On the business end of Audibles they have a program where if the author is willing to give 50% to the reader, then audibles gives them 90% of sales. I work with a bunch of authors and we were playing with the idea of casting audiobooks and having multiple readers. Would anyone be interested in doing such a project on % of sales?
