Back in January of 2008, Leo Lucien-Bay (Dr. Nemesis) asked me to do some voiceover for a little iClone promo movie he was putting together. Recording voiceover in a small house with two small children has its challenges. One of those challenges you can hear faintly crying in the background; the second was sitting in the room with me.

I learned the hard way just how poorly babysitting and voice acting mix. This is the first half of the recording session, featuring Overman and son (age 2).
