Cathy breaks down their intricate step-by-step process for casting projects starting with getting talent names from agents and listening to demos to determine who will get the opportunity to audition in one of their coveted few spots. Since they direct all of their auditions, they speak to what they’re listening for that stands out and aligns with what the client is wanting for their project. Harvey talks about why he thinks he is an effective director and illustrates his point with a story of when he directed, Orson Welles.

Cathy speaks to why she thinks Harvey is such a great director from holding actor’s in high regard to being a great communicator and audience. Harvey cautions voice over actors to not be self-involved and they both give some valuable advice of what voice actor’s should avoid like not coughing “on mic” and questioning direction as well as things to strive to do like being on time, easy to work with and prepared. The pair offers some great self-directing tips and stresses the importance of practicing your craft everyday and following your instincts.
