Sebastian Stan (From the Vault)

On this episode of In the Envelope: The Actor’s Podcast, Odom Jr. takes us behind the scenes of his Broadway homecoming in “Purlie Victorious,” the Tony winner’s first time on stage since “Hamilton.” 

“Theater as a whole really is fighting for its place on the American stage, for its usefulness and its value to us. But it feels as necessary and as valuable as ever before to me,” Odom Jr. says. “So this company [in “Purlie Victorious”] is going to fight the good fight. We literally couldn't have a better text, we couldn't have better themes. We will have our work cut out for us, but I think we're set up to follow through with our intention.”

Tony winner James Monroe Iglehart joins In the Envelope: The Actor’s Podcast to discuss leading back to back musicals with ‘A Wonderful World’ and Broadway’s ‘Spamalot’—and why he’s not taking his busy schedule for granted. “I never want to get too big for my britches. I never want to think, 'that's right, I deserve this. I'm booked all the time,’ “ Iglehart says. “I want to appreciate this time, because there were moments where I wasn't booked at all and no one knew who I was.

Becoming a member of the actors union (SAG-AFTRA) is a goal for many voice actors, but why is that? On this weeks VO School Podcast we are discussing why a voice talent would choose to join the union, the barriers to entry and some of the peculiar idiosyncrasies that voice actors face by going down this path.

What does a voice actor gain when they join the union? And what do they give up?

How does this affect already established non-union business relationships? And how can you turn a non union project to a union one?

SAG-AFTRA doesn’t cover every genre of voiceover, so we find out which ones it does, and which areas a union actor can work without a union contract.

We also cover many of the confusing terms and rules governing union membership, as well as the eligibility requirements.

Joining us this week are three guests at very different stages of their union/non journey. Melissa Exelberth is a successful NYC based voice talent. 2018 marks her 20th year of union membership. 

Carin Gilfry is also a very busy NYC based voice actor who recently became Fi-Core (find out what that means in the episode!). And Dan Lenard is an LA based talent with decades of voiceover experience who is now looking to join the union.

Episode 33 - SAG AFTRA with Melissa Exelberth Carin Gilfry and Dan Lenard

Welcome to the VO School podcast. In collaboration with Backstage Magazine, we will be interviewing some of the brightest lights of the voiceover industry. Voice talent, engineers, agents, casting directors, buyers, covering all areas of the business. 

Subscribe to receive a comprehensive education in the art, craft and business of voiceover!
