Thanks for the hello! I appreciate it. If you get a chance could you give me a critique? My website is www.jwvoicetalent.com. I am really thinking that I should pursue doing character voices and cartoons but not sure if that is a BIG enough part of this industry to focus on exclusively......any help would be GREATLY appreciated. God Bless, Jeff

Keep in touch!

At 1:18pm on October 10, 2009, Tess Masters said…: Hey Herb
I sent my stuff in and they called me in to audition but I needed to be in LA. Oh well....
I also sent my stuff off to the other Craigslist ad for Australian and British VO and didn't hear anything from that one. Win some...lose some
I really appreciate you checking in and passing that audition onto me.
You are AWESOME!

At 8:07am on October 5, 2009, Tess Masters said…: Herb - You are AWESOME!!! Thankyou so much.
