Before you begin what could become a very substantial investment, let me offer you something that will ensure you do not spend money goin' in circles, no carts before horses - you need it all explained quickly and easily with a plan set out for you that includes a budget.
Before you spend a DIME on classes, buy the "YOUR VOICE OVER BUSINESS" mp3 overview from the store section of braintracksaudio.com
For $49, it is nearly 2 hours of overview on the VO business, details the map of what's necessary in the areas of education, demo (sales tool), marketing (web site/graphic branding), and home equipment, what you should plan to budget for all of that, the state of VO today, why there's so much more to VO than the genetic quality of one's sound, what makes a demo great, samples of demos that are not great and explanations as to why they might be OK but are not competitive, how you will be able to get yourself her own work (so cool - that never used to be possible), etc...and all for about 15% of the cost of what it would take to explain that in privates...Best of luck to you! And welcome to the community. Cheers, Nancy

This is kinda late, but it was great meeting you at 'RNB. I hope you're not just surviving but thriving. I was just there to audition and I haven't gotten any feedback yet, but we may become co-workers. I hope so! Being around you younger guys is energizing and I feel Radio-One is poised for a great future.
Best wishes,
Jerry Wells

HERE'S A LITTLE ABOUT ME AND MY VOICE OVER EXPERIENCE: Currently I am a part time on-air personality and commercial production assistant in Philadelphia. Fortunately this gives me access to a full studio. Orignally from Detroit, I'm a young guy (21 years old) breaking into the voice-over industry. I am blessed to work with the legendary CeCe McGhee.
