Episode 17 with Guest: Jim Cummings

Jim Cummings talks Pooh (and does a quick Taz impression):

Jim Cummings sings a bit of The Wonderful Thing About Tiggers:

Firstly, Jim Cummings participated in Cartoon Voices Panel including Billy West, Quinton Flynn, Tara Strong, Brian Froud, and Christian Potenza. Here’s a photo of the panel thanks to Tea and Text:

A few people shot video of the panel (see here) but some are not the best quality and others are incomplete.

Here’s a video of the first part of the panel when Jim Cummings (and Billy West) talk about how they became voice over actors:

(I queued it up to Jim Cummings’ part here if you don’t want to watch the whole thing. He makes remarks throughout.)

Jim Cummings was also at a second panel that you can see clips from here.

Now for some candids from his autograph session.

Here’s a candid shot from Baby Byrne’s Blog from Jim Cummings’ autograph session which includes a cute story of how Jim Cummings met the author’s kids and did voices for them.

This next candid comes from Staying Shiny:

Here’s another candid from 2Gingerstorygirl:

I’ll update this post as I find more pictures and video of his appearances.

Now for the million dollar question! Were you at the Calgary Expo this year? Would you like to share your first hand Jim Cummings experiences? The comments are open below so, please, share away!

News and updates come in dribs and drabs and it’s not unusual for there to be a hiatus when nothing is going on but I unwittingly took a pretty long break from this site these last few months. (The last post on here was dated October 2011!  Yikes!) Why? Well, my day job is always very busy at the end of the year so there’s never much time for blogging but then I started 2012 out by getting insanely sick (you can read about that here, here and here if you are interested). TL;DR version: I got whooping cough, was sort of dying for a while, I’m better now and trying to catch up on my life.

Luckily, however, nothing major happened though I do have lots of little things to share with you. Rather than totally overwhelm you with a billion posts at once, however, I’m going to set up a queue that will post daily until we’re pretty much caught up.

I also had requests to start a Cult of Cummings Tumblr which I will do… once I catch up with the blog. Don’t worry, I’ll announce that here and on the Facebook page as soon as it is ready.

I’ve got a whole queue of things to post but if there’s something you want to make absolutely sure I don’t miss, please post it below!

Your loyal cult leader,
Hillary
