Rapunzel Dress: Soup to Nuts

Disney Tangled

Sometimes we just have to be creative in ways outside the booth.
My daughter wanted to be Rapunzel from Tangled.

 

So we bought a dress:

And with some ribbon, sewing and glue…

Here is my Rapunzel.

The hair is home grown. 😉

 

Fan’s 1st Birthday

I was tickled pink yesterday, when the producers of It’s a Small World sent us a letter from a family. They decorated their daughter’s 1st birthday with all the characters and pictures from our animated series. What an amazing feeling to be told you are a happy part of a family’s celebration. Happy Birthday Makenzie!  You made my day too!

Join Harald and Ashley, and the rest of the gang as they visit Machu Picchu.

I’m hoping to play these characters for another season. Rumor on the street is all positive, still waiting for the final word. This series is just too cute, and there are so many more places to go and see. What are some place you would like to visit, or your favorite place you’ve already seen?

Lego Friends Game

 Legos are awesome, and now girls can have a game with colors, adventures and styles they will love! I’m finally “grown up” and play 3 of the girl’s moms. I had a great time working with the folks at Warner Bros, and my voice director, Ned Lott is awesome! Fun times, and I hope your girls enjoy the game!

Psssst…. I’m the voice of young Melman.

I had a great time voicing this project; it was an honor to be associated with such a memorable animated film franchise. I hope the little ones in your life enjoy playing the game as much as I did helping bring Young Melman to life.

Are you Mad for Madagascar? How about the Game?

New Madagascar Game

JumpStart and Dreamworks have joined forces to create a whole new game for kids. I’m the voice of Young Melman in the new Madagascar Game. Kid friendly and fun, what more could you ask for!?!

New Game

Or the surprise in box #2

Last week I enjoyed recording for a new kid’s game that is about to be launched. It is all still on the hush hush, but I played the younger version of a popular animated movie character. Hopefully, the “well known” clients will give me the go ahead to bla bla blog, very soon!

The Staples Center

Staples, Clippers & UTLA Reading Challenge, hosted at The Staples Center, has invited me this Wednesday the 14th, to be their celebrity guest reader for all their LAUSD school winners. This is my 6th year as a guest reader and I’m so proud to be involved in a program that promotes literacy. Staples, in conjunction with the UTLA and Clippers puts on a great program for these kids. They start with a basketball clinic, taught by one of the Clipper’s coachs and some of the players. Followed by a special reading (by yours truly and a few other celebs) and ending with great seats to the evening’s game! So, here’s to education, making reading count and a Clippers win!!!

Around Town

I want to say thank you to all the kids in Mrs. Wildman’s drama classes. I totally love all your thank you notes!! Your words mean a lot to me. I truly enjoyed sharing the world of voice overs with you all. It was so much fun watching and hearing you do the warm ups, and voice placements. You had great questions, energy and were good directors as well.  I wish you all much luck in whatever you choose to do.

I just got back from recording another episode of Bleach. Fun series.

Next week I will be reading stories on Thursday night at Barnes and Noble in the Calabasas Commons. I’ll get back to you with the time.
