- I read recently that there are over 3.3 million commercials playing each day just on the radio alone! That number is staggering, but it's good news for me, because every one of those spots needs a voice talent. This article explores the reasons why a female voice talent can be more advantageous than a male voice talent.
- Being a full-time female voice actress, I always have my ear tuned to commercials. Whether it's on tv or radio, I find it amusing how just as most listeners are taking their attention away from the program (as it goes to commercial break), I am unconsciously tuning in.
- In this age of technology, it is all too easy to achieve the appearance of being a quality voiceover actress. Seemingly, all that is needed is a good microphone, a decently sound-proofed room in which to record, some editing software, a slick website, and presto... they're in the VO game!
- In reading blogs from other voice over talent, I'm noticing that lately I am hearing a good deal of complaining. Discussions about the negative state of the economy, how the market is flooded with "wanna-be" talent, and that those who used to be able to make a good living as voice over actors, without a lot of effort, are now having to either work harder, or settle for less of the pie.
- People often ask me about how to break into the voice over business. Lately, my standard tidbit of advice has become "google it" because you can now find all kinds of good information on the internet about how to get into voice over work for radio or TV commercials. But, when I first got my start in voice over, there was no internet and "google" was just a really big number that I vaguely recalled from a high school math class.
- At last we are nearing the time of year when the leaves have almost all fallen safely to Mother Earth and the roaring chorus of leaf blowers and lawnmowers has reached its climactic finale. How does this have anything to do with being a voiceover actress, you ask?
