This lady changed my life - if it weren't for her love, patience, comprehensive expertise, and no-nonsense guidance, I might NEVER have found what I was really put on this earth to do. She's the best mentor - hell, the best LIFE COACH anyone could ask for. LOVE YOU, SAMANTHA!

[@SpookyStregaAL]

+Chuck Kourouklis i love her... miss my classes too

[@neofishboy]

Chuck! DUUUUUDE! Yeah, f'real ... VO has been my full-time gig for the last five years or so and that's all on Sam. I seriously need to send her a letter or something telling her what I've been up to. I'd drive to Sausalito, but I don't want to bug her at work.

[@gabrielloaiza9069]

7 years ago lol got me all excited for a class.

[@jeffbugonian8032]

BRILLIANT advice around the 30:00 mark!!

[@MyStutteringLife]

What an AMAZING INTERVIEW 👏 The main takeaway for me is learning script analysis and doing it in 1 to 2 takes. I took so many notes that my hand needs a break before I watch part 2.

[@vobuzzweekly]

Lol awesome comment 👍

[@dndrequiem]

+Chuck Kourouklis As a lifelong voice chaser, I first noticed her name in the Jem cartoon from the mid 1980s. And under the name of Bobbie Block, she's the voice of Meg/Rocker-1. Among her most memorable on camera roles, to me, Ms. Paris acted in an ABC After School Special as the close friend of a teenage mother and in Highway to Heaven as the patient friend of a bedridden athlete. She is Outrageous! < 3 Will take lessons from her someday soon.I'm glad to hear you enjoyed working with her, and that you realized your true North.Saying it again... Samantha Paris is OUTRAGEOUS.

[@evilpandakillabzonattkoccu4879]

she does the voice of the main character in the english version of the game Keio Flying Squadron....she voices Rami Nana-Hikari

[@beaustephensonvoiceover8925]

Hard work really is key. SPOT ON!

[@Doggieworld3Show]

Isn’t it okay to mess up? Isn’t it normal? Even though, not just practice, but confidence is key.

[@EpicReign]

Funny. It’s 2017 and I’m drinking coffee right now. Lol

[@fortsilencestudioinc.7215]
