I recorded what I had to. God almighty! I am so out of shape! I had to play Hitler and I had to do him in English with the German accent… It took a lot of energy out of me to do this guy's voice. I was a bit rusty with the German accent but it came back faster than I expected and I was pleasantly surprised. I must admit that even in a simple script this Hitler guy spreads so much negative energy and so much power, that after I did his voice I was sweating like a horse. My shirt was soaking wet and I was exhausted. When I finished doing big Adolph, Tom talked me in to playing three other characters, so I had to change my voice three times. The characters I agreed to play were totally different, including a Roman-Catholic priest…
Just imagine to jump from being a Hitler to play a Roman Catholic priest and later some dumb SS-man and the adjutant to the Colonel who supposed to assassinate Hitler. It is just a computer game but I am a perfectionist and would never leave the studio if I did not know my job was done the best way I managed to do it. I got out of the recording room dead. As soon as the game will be released I am going to ask for few copies of it.
When I was done with the voice over, Tom offered me another gig, which looks like a long term contract. Besides, he told me that he liked my Hitler, and other characters, so much he is going to "make a big computer game star" out of me and I even may get permanent job as a voice over guy for the company which makes these games.

This anther gig I supposed to try needed my voce smaple for the company, which need an actor. So I recorded my voice sample and Tom will try to sell it to them. Money is not great but still, it is money and if this is going to materialize I will be feeling significant financial improvement.
There is another gig, which Tom is trying to get for me, but this one is just one time gig. Oh well, money is money.
If I’d get the contract, I wrote about few days ago, I will be so all right I’d be thinking about smiling for the first time in ages.

Another great news. Couple of months ago Tom was in the States working on the record of one of the best metal rock groups in the world…I won’t say which one. Nevertheless the record is already out and is making a big splash in the States and there is a lot of talk about the Grammy Award…He will be on the “payroll” on the cover as one of the sound producers. So, I work with such a guy.
Yeah, I have to admit, sometimes he is full of shit. He cheats me financially, I know it, but I am letting him get away with this. After all, I must come back and be known again in the show business so, I treat this moment in my life as a little investment in my future and I am not going to fight with Tom over the doe. The money he offers me is not good, as I already said, but it is decent and makes me feel all right.
Besides, I never thought I will be working in my profession after a year of living in Poland and after 25 years of not working at all as an actor.
Well, my pain did not leave me yet, but I feel better.
I am glad I can do gigs in English too. It gives me a lot of satisfaction.
Americans did not want me, now American companies who have their offices in Poland want my voice and like it a lot.

I wish I could do book reading on CD and tapes IN ENGLISH!
That would be my ultimate revenge! Americans listening to my voice reading books to them.
I won’t say anything yet, but Tom said that there is such an opportunity in the future and he sees me doing it.
HA!
