Secrets of Voice Over for Success

Joan Baker & Rudy Gaskins

Push Creative Advertising

Joan Baker, and her husband Rudy Gaskins, took an ambitious mission to transform entertainment industry
with Voice Over technology and started Push Creative Advertising, an innovative marketing and promotion
company that includes training the voice in 2001. We’re both grateful to be in business together.

“Voice-over (also known as off-camera or off-stage commentary) is a production technique where a voice
which is not part of the narrative (non-diegetic) is used in a radio, television production, filmmaking, theatre,
or other presentations. The voice-over may be spoken by someone who appears elsewhere in the production
or by a specialist voice actor”1.

What’s great about our careers is that it is part and parcel of the life we want to live. We are involved in
everything from nuts to bolts and love to create for ourselves a powerful “present”. And that is in voiceover
acting and voice coaching, operating our own business in the entertainment industry and being in a position
to create anything we dare to dream.

What makes it possible to do all this is being open to opportunities for giving, sharing and receiving the
positive feedback. The second is a cultivate a totally new awareness of our personal power and the impact
we can have by simply committing ourselves to a mission that’s bigger than ourselves – one that requires the
energy and spirit of a community. To gain this awareness for your solve we recommend conferences such as
Rio+20 to catapult you into another realm of living your life.
