2022.09.03 - 0611 – What To Take Into A Voice Recording Session
Performance
Ok here we go. All that training and preparing comes to the moment the red light goes on! But we’re not there yet. Not quite.
What to take into a recording session:
- Headphones – closed-back or in-ear types
- Comfort and confidence
- Health
- Water – in a spill-proof bottle
- To top up your hydration
- To give you something to do as the director and colleagues discuss the next take
- To give something to do when you need a break – to fill it up
- The script – either on paper or maybe on a tablet
- Paper won’t run out of a battery but it can rustle
- A pad might break if dropped, and it’s less easy to mark up a script
- Pencil with an eraser on the end – so you can mark up the script, and alter changes as necessary
- A pad of paper - for your ‘take notes’ or a ‘take slate’
- Tea bag – yes maybe this if you know that your particular brand of, say, honey and lemon infusion is calming and soothing.
