Biggest Difference Between Bad Actors And Great Actors - Rhomeyn Johnson

Watch the video interview on Youtube here.

Dude, recording actors doing voice acting auditions is an awesome gig 99% of the time.

The 1% is the sucky times WHEN THEY USE A LINE FROM A THE LAST EPISODE OF A SHOW YOUR WATHCING AND IT SPOILS WHAT HAPPENS.

Otherwise fantastic gig 10/10.

I’m gonna go on a rant here, I just finished ‘Quiet on Set’ the documentary about the dark side of nickelodeon. Everything they said about LA and Hollywood is so true it hurts.(ON TOP OF HOW THEY PUT KIDS IN DANGER AND DO NOT CARE!!) it reminded me of my time in La. I was an aspiring voice actor and my mentor at the time promised me gigs and work if I moved out to LA. That year was probably one of my darkest years living. I auditioned in Disney studios, I was casted in a video game, hell I even got signed to an agency who represented the voice actors I’ve idolized since a kid! Yet every time I heard the train outside my apartment I thought to myself this day is where I would step out on the tracks. I remember my agent calling me and saying I had the talent, acting chops, but that is it nothing else I’m an ‘empty file’. Then she proceeded to tell me to go to a bar and ‘listen’ to industry conversation then insert myself whenever I can. I always believed it was your talent and your chops got you the job, but it’s not it’s actually brushing the shit out of your teeth cause you’ve been sucking sooooo much ass. On top of this they will send you 4-9 auditions a day and they can send you an audition at any time. I had a project that my audition was assigned to me at 10pm and it had to be in by 7am the next morning. You could have three of those types on top of two more that are due at 8am. I was chained to my booth I felt like a cash cow so I started to focus on school more and told my agent I was shifting careers. At that time they were frothing at the mouth to hire anyone black when I signed. I received a copy that had on it: please sound like Awkwafina,Mindy Kaling,Lizzo, Janelle Monáe……If you notice the only thing similar about them is that they are people of color. The last auditioned I ever received from my agency was a KFC ad. The industry be it tv,movie,vo anything in regards to entertainment will forever be about a check never your happiness or your own time. I will never forget that lesson. Create your own shit, produce your own shit!, these huge companies want to take your creativity make money off it then jerk odd on it. Do. Things. For. You.

Fortaleza Juan Pablo!

Worked with a voice acting coaching client on drilling into a piece of the material, getting very granular, and then zooming back out to see the whole piece with with those new options and ideas being part of it. Great to hear their work deepen and work well.

2023 has been a creatively fulfilling year ❤️ Here’s my collage of some of the stuff I’ve worked on/projects that came out this year (which means some of it was actually recorded a year+ ago)!

Milestones:

-2nd year in a row I kept up with auditions every month

-Direct marketed more than every year prior combined

-Took classes for the first time!

-Branched out to non-entertainment voiceover which has been a blast

Grateful to have worked with some amazing people 🙏🏼

Well this has to be fake. The #sexiest #American #accents. #voiceover #vo #va #voiceovers #voices

dissapointed in a buncha people I know for endorsing that game the finals which is still shamelessly using ai voice overs. just unapologetically creepy business practices

Been fun having people tell me to shut the fuck up about consent. Wonder if they'll consider beloved celebrities any differently.

Oof.

Cute.
