The Voice

A couple of months ago Hope auditioned to film a piece for the Space Science Institute in Boulder.  It was for a interactive travelling museum exhibition about space and asteroids.  She was one of 3 kids to be chosen to film the piece and they filmed in just about an hour the next day.  She loved the experience.

Well, last week she got called back by the same people to do some voiceover work for the same exhibit.  She was so excited when she heard it was going to be done in a recording studio - "Am I going to be in one room with a big window that looks into the other room with all the people in it and they can talk to me through the speakers?!?!?"  I wasn't sure how it was going to be set-up, but it turns out it was just like that, and she had so much fun.  The sounds engineer was so complimentary of her patience and direction-taking.  He said she did better than most adults do.  She had to do some of the sections several times because she just couldn't get the word "comet" right.  At first she kept saying "comment"  and then she could only say it like she was from the east coast, for some reason.  But that provided some comic relief!  Here are some pics in the studio:
