SUMMARY:The “Heard” Mentality with Jonathan Reiner
DESCRIPTION:Saturday 31st August 2024 – 12pm PDT / 3pm EDT / 8pm BST \n  \nCan we talk?  \nOf course we can!  \nBut knowing how to effectively use your voice in a way that translates into artistic and commercial success is tough these days. Being “all in” as a voiceover actor in 2024 can be overwhelming\, confusing and – let’s face it – lonely. \nThat’s where a manager comes in.  \nWhether you’re a booking machine or a newbie with a dream\, Jonathan will offer straight-talk insights into our industry in a way that both makes sense and makes sure you are empowered when you step into the booth. We’ll discuss the manager/client relationship and what makes a good client (and a good manager).  \nBring your questions and your copy (commercial\, animation/video game and promo) because Jonathan will also provide a safe and encouraging space to try new things with honest feedback. \nJonathan Reiner is an Emmy-winning showrunner and creator who began his career as an entertainment journalist before segueing into television production and then talent management. As a producer\, Jonathan shepherded dynamic content for major broadcast\, cable and streaming platforms. During the pandemic\, he oversaw the roster at Avanti Talent Management in New York. \nJonathan began working with Citizen Skull Management representing below-the-line talent and recently founded CSM’s VoiceOver division\, guiding the careers of a diverse roster of veteran and emerging talent in all areas of voice performance.
