Setup
My studio is in a small storage space under a staircase - lovingly referred to as my "Harry Potter" studio (HP Studio for short). The walls and ceilings have been covered with acoustic foam to absorb sound and reduce echo, the corners where the walls meet the ceiling are fitted with foam bass traps to reduce the low frequencies known to cause a "muddy" sound, and a shag rug on the floor - for both sound absorption and because it feels nice beneath my feet.
My home studio with
certified professional-quality sound.
Welcome to my corner of the internet!
I’m Novi, a trained voice actor and singer based in sunny Los Angeles, where the worlds of our imaginations come alive. Being an actor has been a dream of mine ever since I was young, captivated by the characters and stories that fill our screens in animation and video games. However, I let the naysayers instill doubt and hold me back, leading me to pursue a “safe” career path.
Nevertheless, I’m proud of the work I’ve done and grateful for the experience I’ve gained, but now I’m moving past my fears to embrace my passions and bring joy through the characters I voice. Every role has a story to tell—from the most daring heroes to their quirky sidekicks, from the villain with a twist to the NPC giving directions. I’m eager to bring a range of characters to life and infuse them with musicality whenever they feel so inclined. I can’t wait to share their unique stories with you.
Thanks for taking this journey with me—I’m excited to see where it leads!
