My 2nd Day in CVAP


It's a sad day for me!

I wasn't able to attend the afternoon session because of the message through a phone call from my cousin that my adoptive father Tatay Arthur has given up his last breath at past ten in the morning. September 11 is not a favorable date for me and I have to admit the reality that we only live once.

I can not be the person who I am now without the things tatay had taught me. He instilled in me the importance of respect, patience and being fair, at all times. 

It's really hard for me to focus in listening to the virtual class this morning. What I remember is that "The Voice Master" sir Choy discussed about the formula in voice acting and he portrayed and showed some examples of the voices he can project by applying the techniques like the voice variety, proper voice care and avoiding monoty in delivering the script. Sir Pocholo also underscored that each voice is dynamic and can always be changed and improved.

Mr. Joshua Simeon also shared about his experience in his voiceover projects. His insightful ideas on technical tips is a sure help to a newbie like me. 

I don't know what and how I feel as I encode this scribbling but I hope this article will remind me one day that this struggle that I'm facing right now has impacted greatly in  creating a better version of who I wanna be in the next chaptersnof my existence.

As what the person behind the thousand voices, Sir Pocholo is always saying, we should always inculcate in our minds that we are just good as our weakest link.

I hope I can make it up to the final day.

With a heavy heart, I know and I believe that this trial, shall pass.

My First Day in CVAP

It was really a dream-come-true experience for me to be part of the Certified Voice Artist Program (CVAP). I was always fascinated by the testimonials of the pioneer members whenever I browse the different channels where their videos are uploaded. I was amazed how these trainees underscored the great changes in their personalities and principles as they were joining the program.  Perfect timing!  Yes, you read it right, folks. It was late in the evening of April 8 this year when I attempted to send a message to Sir Pocholo De Leon Gonzales who is widely known for his pseudonym "the Voice Master" who happens to be a native of Mariveles where I am living up to now. I bravely expressed my intention and interest to join the CVAP and he encouraged me to send a short video stating the reason why I want to join, what are my expectations and what will I do next after the short course. Sadly, I was tested positive for CoViD-19 and it took me less than a month to recover. I

My Reaction on Sir Danny "Ama" Mandia's Talk

  I am not actually familiar about Direk Danny Mandia until I was given the chance to be a part of CVAP and until he was given the slot to share a bit of his roundabouts in the field of dubbing. I was really mesmerized on the way he retold his experience as a professor in Merriam College and as a dubbing director at the same time. He shared about the secrets and tips to be a successful dubber. According to direk "Ama", he considers himself as "monster" whennit comes to coaching his trainees in dubbing. He always sees to it that his students incorporate the value of discipline everytime they are inside the studio. "Kung walang disiplina ang isang tao at siguradong walang mararating", direk Danny reiterated. As one of the zoom viewers who witnessed his talk, I got even more fascinated with the numerous works he contributed in the dubbing industry. This even brought me back to my younger days when I and my childhood friends were watching "tagalized"
