This week I entered the world of the voice actor at the Con Artists premiere at the Downtown Independent, LA.  The film is a mockumentary about “the madness of the convention circuit as seen through the eyes of two voice actors, who live in a sort of bubble of fame.” (Yuri Lowenthal)  You might know Yuri – one of the writers and stars of Con Artists – by his face (Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles, Shelf Life), but you would most certainly know him by his voice (Ben 10, Naruto, Afro Samurai).  He is not the only recognizable creator/writer behind Con Artists; but also his lovely wife, Tara Platt (Naruto, Shelf Life, Ben 10). The film follows their career as actors/voice actors, as well as the fame and fortune at the wonderful world of conventions – a.k.a. Cons( for my non convention going readers.) Continue reading

GEEK INTO SHAPE: The problem with desk jobs.

19 Sep

As I’ve mentioned before, I have a desk job. It’s a very demanding job with a ton of hours- lots of overtime, weekends, you name it. I work so much that it’s customary with my job to have a person who brings me lunch to my desk so I don’t have to take the time to get up and go to the kitchen. It’s not healthy. While there isn’t much I can do about the hours, I can do something about the sitting. Continue reading
