Voicing Animations with Kate HarbourThis month Rob and Helen Bee are joined by the legendary Kate Harbour – a voice actor with more iconic credits than you can shake a script at.You’ve heard her in Bob the Builder, Shaun the Sheep, Timmy Time, Octonauts, The Secret Show, Chip and Potato, Go! Go! Cory Carson… Honestly, the list goes on, and if we tried to name everything, we’d be here all day. She’s also a master of radio drama (Doctor Who, Robin of Sherwood), comedy (Puckoon, The Big Ben Theory), and Netflix dubs – basically, if you’ve ever watched TV, you’ve probably heard Kate.But she’s not just a voiceover powerhouse – she also teaches. Her Acting for Animation workshops have helped countless VOs bring characters to life, whether at top drama schools or in her own private coaching sessions. So, of course, we had to sit her down and grill her on everything: How did she get into animation? How does she build her characters? What makes a great animation performance? And crucially, how does her approach to teaching differ from everyone else’s?It’s a properly juicy episode, full of insights, laughs, and a fair bit of geeking out over characters. Let’s get into it!We also chat to Annette Rizzo - from Equity’s Audio Committee. She gives us the latest news on Equity's audio audit, BBC audio drama campaign, accessibility for blind/partially sighted for equity website, AI campaign and the Equity audio committee elections.Kate Harbour’s links: Website - kateharbour.com Acting for Animation workshop - info and booking link - https://www.kateharbour.com/a4a-book-ticketEquity Links: Save Audio Drama at the BBC campaign - https://www.change.org/p/save-audio-drama-at-the-bbcStop AI Stealing the Show campaign - https://www.equity.org.uk/campaigns-policy/stop-ai-stealing-the-show VO Social Links Great Big VO Social blog -b-double-e.co.uk/the-first-great-big-vo-social-a-review/ Great Big VO Social photo gallery - greatbigvosocial.com/photo-gallery/For more information about The Voiceover Social visit: The Voiceover Social Website Email us [email protected] Subscribe to our newsletter See which events are coming soon Find your closest VO Social group Find us online: Instagram Facebook Page Facebook Group LinkedIn Podcast sponsored by B Double E.Theme tune by Rob Bee.All audio production by Rob Bee.
