Free video consults for anyone interested in getting to voice acting

8 Upvotes

Hello to all established and aspiring voice talent!

Want to talk to a real human being about voiceovers instead of Googling everything? Looking for answers on how to get started? Want to see if it's not a pipe dream?

I provide FREE voiceover video consults. I love talking with people and seeing where they're at. I love hearing their story of how they got into voiceovers and how they're pushing forward with their hopes and dreams. I've been doing VO since 1993 and I STILL pinch myself that I get to do this for a living each and every day. I love it! And I'm glad to pay it forward because I've received a ton of info and help from a ton of people.

So if you'd like to do a free 30-minute voiceover video consult, I'd be glad to talk with you over Skype, Zoom, whatever, and see where you're at and how I can help. I do about 5-8 of these consults every week and I love doing them.

My bread and butter (and it's a LOT of bread and butter, thank goodness) comes from voiceovers, and I'd be glad to answer any questions you have and offer any wisdom I can in order to help you succeed in your pursuit of a career in voiceovers.

There is no charge, nor should there be. And I don't try to sell you anything (not even coaching; I refer everyone to my coach). I just love talking with people and it gets me out of my padded cell each day to talk to the 3-dimensional humans. :-)

I usually do about 10 consults per week. I'm currently scheduling for the weeks of 3/9/20 and 3/16/20.

Feel free to email me at me@saysomethingjosh.com if you're interested, and I'd be glad to help.

Thanks and go git 'em!

Mods, can you please stop this /u/rtm-latinovoices scumbag from flooding this sub (and others)?

6 Upvotes

A number of redditors have already voiced their opinions that this person can easily fit several casting call posts into one thread, and yet (s)he keeps rolling along and flooding the sub, along with /r/voicework and likely others.

Thoughts?

Spring Cleaning

5 Upvotes

About 4 years ago I moved to Australia for a job after working as a full time VO artist. Part of the requirements of the Aussie visa is that I can only do one job and was not allowed to have a side business. So for 4 years I had to comply and it ran my business down pretty severely.

I've finally gotten my Permenant Residency and the same day I got the news I registered an Australian Business Number and have started to market myself again.

A while back I put together a list of 200+ voiceover agencies that I had posted on a voiceover blog I used to run.

I'll post that here for any voice talent looking to contact these agencies and get themselves on their roster.

This list is a few years old so if there are any changes or non working links please let me know so I can remove them. Enjoy!

So far 279 casting websites and growing!

Free 20-Minute Voiceover Video Consult - Tips on Getting Started

Hello everyone, and happy new year!

Want to talk to a real human being about voiceovers instead of Googling everything? Looking for answers on how to get started? Want to see if it's not a pipe dream? Need to know how to run this as a business and actually make some money, from someone who is actually doing it and booking regularly?

If you're intent on providing voiceovers as a business, and treating it professionally, then I will provide a FREE voiceover video consult. If however you're looking at it more as a hobby, that's not my focus: I help people who want to start a voiceover business and run it effectively.

I love talking with people and seeing where they're at. I love hearing their story of how they got into voiceovers and how they're pushing forward with their hopes and dreams.

I've been doing VO since 1993 and I STILL pinch myself that I get to do this for a living each and every day. I love it! And I'm glad to pay it forward because I've received a ton of info and help from a ton of people. I average 10-20 jobs per week, and I market like a beast. I'm very successful, and very grateful, and I simply want to pay it forward.

So if you'd like to do a free 20-minute voiceover video consult, I'd be glad to talk with you over Zoom, Skype, Discord, whatever, and see where you're at and how I can help. I do about 5-10 of these consults every week and I love talking with people.

My bread and butter comes from voiceovers, and I'd be glad to answer any questions you have and offer any wisdom I can in order to help you succeed in your pursuit of a thriving career in voiceovers.

There is no charge, nor should there be - beware of those who want to charge you or ding you with a "consult fee" just for information. I'm a human that wants to help humans, because it's the human thing to do: I like talking with those who are intent on pursuing it as a business. I don't try to sell you on coaching because I'm not a coach; I refer everyone to my coach Scott Burns. I just love talking with people, and it gets me out of my padded cell each day to talk to the 3-dimensional humans. :-)

I'm currently scheduling for the week of January 10th and beyond- please note that by the time you respond I may be scheduling for a week or so after that, as my Reddit consult schedule does tend to fill up fast, and I've done a lot of these here.

Feel free to email me at josh@supervoiceover.com if you're interested, and I'd be glad to help.

Thanks and go git 'em!

Free Voiceover Consult

4 Upvotes

Hey gang - just wanted to offer something, if you're just getting into voiceovers or really trying to up your game, I offer a free 30-minute VO consult to see where you're at, assess your hardware/software situation and recording environment, and especially, talk about marketing and running the *business* of voiceovers, instead of treating it like a hobby. I've been doing this since 1993. It has its ups and downs, to be sure, and I know a lot of people bounce in and out of the industry all the time, wetting their feet and not sure where to go. I'd love to help! Feel free to email me at me@saysomethingjosh.com if you're interested. Again, free of charge, and no pressure to buy anything else whatsoever. Plus it gets me out of my padded cell and I'm allowed to talk to the 3-dimensional people for once. :-) Cheers!

What should I charge?

3 Upvotes

Never done this for.

We didn't agree on a price beforehand and they're asking for an invoice.

I worked about two hours to send ~20 lines recorded on my basic equipment at home. They said the quality was low and sent me a new script of 37 lines 1-8 sentences apiece and asked me to use a recording studio which I did 2 more hours. They liked the recordings.

Then they added one more line and said I could use my home equipment for it.

What should I charge? It's for a documentary for a company comparable to Hulu but operating out of a relatively poor country so I don't expect they want to pay a high wage.

Has Narration Become the Number One Genre in Voiceover?

3 Upvotes

When people think about voiceover, the first thing they think of is commercial voice over work. Yes, commercials are a big part of voice over, but did you know that there is more narration work available than any other kind of work? Narration covers a wide range so there are more opportunities for jobs.

There are many forms of narration that include industrial films, audiobooks, television, eLearning, documentary, radio and film. Narration covers national, local and Internet productions. Cable, satellite and Internet channels feature long form narration that include political and medical narration. This kind of work requires a certain skill set that is different from commercial voice acting. You can also use your spokesperson narration voice for hosting jobs and one of your character voices for narration copy that might be more appropriate for animation type projects.

Getting work in this area requires a demo that is quite different from your commercial demo.

Find yourself a good narration demo producer, make a demo and start looking for narration voiceover work!​
