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! …
The It’s A Small World kids go to China. Ashley (me) finally gets to attend to her fashionista side! These episodes are so sweet.

This is a sweet little episode where we help a baby rhino find her way home. I also voiced the rhino, and trust me there were many more snorfles, snuffs, and raspberries in the recording session. I’m sure the outtake reel is hilarious. The sounds they picked are adorable and I’m glad I can now add…

For our 3rd episode we went to Scotland! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kIJJiSYtSEk Disney is great because not only is this playing on line, it’s also playing in their hotels and on their cruise ships. In this episode I played a Scottish piper. However, if you want to see the real piper in action, check out this clip: http://blogs.disney.com/oh-my-disney/2013/12/10/bagpiper-surprises-disney-interactive-office/ (click on the piper)…

One of the best parts about this Disney project, is that I get to work with some really great people. Group reads are always so much more fun! Actors sometimes say things like, “Oh man, I had to learn a bleedin’ accent.” In this case we are “bleedin’” accents… all over each other!This week we recorded 2…
Love working with Kelly Ward! What a great VO director. Today we were kids from Sweden and Japan, as well as our main characters. My 2 are Dutch and French Canadian. Joel Goldes helped keep our dialects straight. What an exercise in focus with accents, and a lot of laughs!
Worked my first session yesterday on a new Disney project, and had a blast! There are a lot of characters involved with many different accents from around the world. My two main characters are Dutch and French Canadian. Fortunately, I don’t need to speak the language, I just have to speak with an accurate accent….
There is a great article about Disney’s movie “Planes,” and how they made the flying look so incredibly good. Here is an excerpt: “Filmmakers called on Jason McKinley (“Red Tails”) to serve as flight specialist for the film. McKinley, creator, producer and director of the “Dogfights” series for the History Channel, specializes in designing flying…
Go see Planes this weekend! My close friend, Jason McKinley, was responsible for bringing the “eye-popping aerial sequences” (Entertainment Weekly) to the screen. If you like animation, insiders say to check it out! I’m going tonight. Let me know what you think.
