FitMuses mobile app and Website design

Posted on November 30, 2012 by Anndi McAfee

Just met with my programmer today for FitMuses and we went over the design for the website and mobile app. I’m SO excited that this is actually happening but also incredibly nervous. I believe so much in the good this product will do for women that I worry if they will love it as much as I do. I think this is completely normal when you risk everything for something you are so passionate about. I really am throwing everything I have into this dream-to bring support and fun to women as they exercise so that they enjoy the journey they have with their bodies and their health. I really hope I can deliver a product they love! Here is the logo for FitMuses:

My new venture-Please “like” the facebook page!

For over a year now I have been working on a new venture and I am ALMOST ready to launch it!! So exciting. I wanted to share my journey with my product, called “FitMuses” with anyone who is interested for many reasons. One is that we all have great ideas. Every single one of us. Sometimes we just have no idea what to do with them, or how to execute them. Let me tell you, it is not easy. But you should do what you love, what makes you happy, what you have passion for. There were many times in this past year that I wasn’t sure if I could actually keep going. I am still nervous about the future! But this is perfectly normal. If you want, please share your personal business stories with me too.

SO…..

FitMuses was created to help women stay motivated, inspired, and entertained as they exercise. Myself and ALL the women in my life know we need to move our bodies as a lifestyle in order to stay healthy. That lifestyle is hard to maintain with all the responsibilities and time contraints we have in our lives. I do it, but I get really really bored exercising. My FAVORITE time to exercise, hands down, is when a girlfriend is with me and I get to hear all the juicy gossip in her life. I get motivated to actually get off my butt and move, I enjoy the exercise because I’m distracted by all the stories, and I exercise longer because of that. I generally just feel happy! But as is the case with life, sometimes my girlfriends are not available. Or they don’t belong to my gym. Whatever the reason, I find myself alone a lot of the time. One day I had my “a-ha” moment. What if I could re-create that experience for women? I AM a voice over artist!!!

That’s how FitMuses was born. I created a mobile app and website, and I recruited a few of my girlfriends, all different ages, shapes, sizes, lifestyles, etc, REAL WOMEN, to share their lives as they exercise to help motivate and inspire other women!! They all have different styles of communication too which is what makes it SO interesting! As a listener, you NEVER get bored. It’s a mix of life stories, advice, music, exercise tips, just everything we talk about when we’re exercising with our girlfriends! I can’t wait for it to be up and running so you (and any woman you share this with that you think may benefit from something like this) can experience it. Listeners can also be a part of the story by giving feedback, asking questions, etc and each of the FitMuses can respond in their “FitCasts” to individual women. It’s like an ongoing conversation between friends!

We are almost ready to launch, but for now I would love it if you could “LIKE” our facebook page. All the news and updates will be posted there so if you do wan to download and use the (FREE) app, you can get all the information on the facebook page. And of course, I will be talking about voice over stuff in my FitCasts!

Interview with Pure Gear

Posted on July 31, 2012 by Anndi McAfee

I was happy to participate in an interview with Pure Gear, a great company that makes cell phone accessories. They were looking to interview people with unique lifestyles that use their products and I fit the bill! A voice over artist has to be available and ready to record at a moment’s notice so my phone is incredibly important to me. I have to admit, I like all the cool more “sporty” gadgets Pure Gear makes since I TRY to hike or walk as much as possible and I always take my phone with me. Anyway, if you’re interested in checking out the interview (or you need accessories for your cell when you work out) here is the interview:

Voice Over Exercise

Posted on May 12, 2011 by Anndi McAfee

Sometimes we are spoiled by our engineers. They soften our Ps when we pop them, they compress our take to get our read within a certain time, or they perform many other little technical tricks they have up their sleeves that help make our jobs easier. But sometimes, an engineer can’t help us out, so we always have to make sure we are practicing our basic skills.

This is exactly what I had to do this week. I’ve been working on a campaign for a very well known acne fighting system, and part of this campaign comprises of reading a list of 1-800 numbers which must be completed in exactly 5.7 seconds. Additionally, they have required TWO clean reads. So here is an exercise for you I have put together (There’s never a dull moment as a VO artist, and there’s always the possibility for a new challenge! You’ll see why in the next sentence):

Read the following script of 1-800 numbers clearly, with each number enunciated (no forty nine, or twenty two, you must say four nine, and two two), all 0s read as “zero” (with the exception of 1-800), without shouting, but also like it’s the most amazing number you’ve ever read (but friendly, and not over-the-top), and get two reads at exactly 5.7 seconds (not a tenth over, not a tenth under).

Call 1-800-254-6007…that’s 1-800-254-6007

Call 1-800-233-3431…that’s 1-800-233-3431

Call 1-800-766-9817…that’s 1-800-766-9817

Call 1-800-694-7009…that’s 1-800-694-7009

Call 1-800-207-7070…that’s 1-800-207-7070

Call 1-800-832-2383…that’s 1-800-832-2383

Call 1-800-944-4746…that’s 1-800-944-4746

That’s just a short list for you to practice with. How’d you do?

This picture is of me reading my list of 1-800 numbers.
