I broke down. I swore I wouldn’t ever do her on camera but I bought a brown Palin wig at the Halloween shop the other day while shopping for a wolf costume for my 3 year old. They didn’t have a bona fide Palin wig so the closest thing I could find was an ’80′s Mall Rat’ wig…I guess it was supposed to look like the lady on that HORRENDOUS sitcom Married With Children. I knew with some cutting and pruning I could get it to ‘work’, and think I’ve managed to do that…at least for video. The wig doesn’t actually cover my head. Maybe they meant it to go on a 3 year old? Anyway, if you’ve never cut a wig, it’s kind of an eery feeling. But I digress. It’s late and I’ve posted my video to my Facebook page…hoping that with some support from my friends I will have the confidence to post it on YouTube tomorrow. The whole Palin impersonation thing is frought with a lot of baggage for me…She brings up a lot of kinda tricky things for me…not politically but from a comedic/voiceover standpoint purely. I’ll go into at another time. Right now, it’s back to Pandora and Money Plus.
Hello world!
Good October To All!
With the Fall some exciting things are happening like…well, like this blog for instance. It’s still Greek to me, but gimme a few days and this puppy will be covered with INCREDIBLY important and useful information about the life and times of Rosemary Watson.
Briefly, however, tonight I am singing for the first time in a long while for a corporate event being held at the Natural History Museum in San Diego. Should be an interesting mix of insurance executives, jazz and bones.
I’m thrilled to be out there making music and am really happy I get to see (and hear!) my wonderful friend from LA, Octavio Bailly on electric bass. On the keyboard is none other than Mr. Mystery himself…Mikan Zlatkovich.
In the world of VOICEOVERS, I am recording like a fiend, almost everyday, for Ashley Furniture. Those spots are running nationwide on tv and radio. Other fun projects are also coming in which I will tell you about later, speaking of mystery.
I also finished voicing my first cartoon series, for toddlers, called Bommi & Friends. I am playing the part of a spazzy, cute cute cute blue dog named Yip. It’s an ensemble cast (13 – 30 minute shows) in which all the vo artists are all from San Diego and the art work is coming from India by the company, Image Venture.
