VAMFR 004 | Interview with Robin Armstrong, Part 3
Welcome to episode 4 of the Voice Acting Mastery: Field Report podcast!
In this episode our correspondent, Ashley Huyge, continues her discussion with writer, director, and VO talent, Robin Armstrong.
As of now, there’s no traditional academic path for voiceover. You can’t go to college, study for four years and leave with a degree in voiceover. Finding someone to guide you as a mentor is invaluable and in today’s episode Ashley is joined by one of her mentors, actor, director and VO talent, Robin Armstrong. In the two previous episodes of this interview, Robin has treated us to stories about his journey to becoming a voiceover talent, and how he keeps his business and artistry balanced. Today he’ll be sharing a couple of very important concepts: generosity and community. It’s due to Robin’s generosity and his ability to develop his community that he and Ashley met. I think you’ll find the final part of their interview very enlightening.
The VAM Field Report will be released on the 1st Wednesday of every month so stay on the look out for it!

What’s this? A VAM Field Report woefully underpopulated by comments? Nonsense!
Anyway, just wanted to say that I enjoyed the interview! Teachers recommendations from working pros are always appreciated.
Also, Ashley — as a 10-year resident of Grand Rapids, I’ve gotta ask – did you ever live here? Your name sounds super-familiar, but it might just be due to the sea of Dutch people out this way.
Thanks again for the podcasts! Looking forward to the next one.
So glad you’re enjoying the Field Report! I found the interview with Robin inspiring as well!
Lovely interview, the sense of community within oneself is a great support technique, never thought of that before.
Thanks to Robin for his time and wisdom.
And thank you Ashley for your episode!
See you next time!

Loved this last part. Robin’s generosity is heartwarming and makes me want to work with him some day if I can help it.
Thank you so much for this interview, Ashley. Looking forward to the next one!
Thanks for the great interview! Robin speaks from his heart and soul and it’s people like him who really move and inspire me. Also great stories and advice as well! I love this new branch of VAM!
