Who Do You Listen To?

“They” say to become a voice over talent you need to drop $10,000 on a home studio. “They” say to record a bunch of samples, add some background music and you have a demo. “They” will also tell you that you can get rich in voice overs; that it’s easy. If only “they” knew!

The cacophony of erroneous information about getting started as a voice over talent, in the honest endeavor to find the truth, is enough to make a head spin. So how do… Continue

Staying Connected in the Voiceover Business

You network. You audition. You gain clients. You create strategic relationships. All of these efforts are crucial to being successful in any field and yet are particularly important in the voice over industry. Staying connected can be a challenge, however, and the holiday season is an opportune time to reconnect.

Consider sending Happy Thanksgiving cards to your contacts in the United States with a simple message of appreciation. Contacts who reside outside of the United States may not celebrat… Continue

Removing the Risk!

Risk is inherent in progress and growth and is an integral component of doing business. Companies take risks, calculated risks, investing considerable time and money developing the products and services they offer and bringing them to the market. As voice talents, we are sometimes part of the product (narration, animation, video games), part of the service (telephony, p.a. announcements), or part of the promotion of the product or service (commercials, radio imaging). Regardless of our role, wha… Continue

Bringing Your A-Game

You are your business. No you, no business. So it makes perfect sense that taking care of you must be a top priority. Yet amidst the to do lists, the daily challenges of running a business, putting out fires, auditioning, recording spots, and a sundry of life’s little curve balls thrown our way, it’s easy to get lost in the mix and slip out of the running. It’s easy to become last on our priority list.

Last place. Nobody likes last place! We dread it. It’s what we strive to avoid. Yet if we are… Continue

Getting it Right

Management guru Peter Drucker says, “Efficiency is doing things right; effectiveness is doing the right things.” Efficiency and effectiveness are paramount to voice over talents and both are dependent upon daily habits. You know, those little things that can make us or break us?

Here are some success habits that I came up with that I work on daily that may be useful to you:

•The habit of practice, practice, practice! Even if you don’t hit perfect, you can’t grow without it! All successf… Continue

Hi Terry,
I just viewed your video about auditioning on voices.com. Sending in 3 takes is something I never thought of, thanks. I have 2 questions for you: When you say send in a CLEAN recording, do you mean only mean free of pops, clicks, breaths, etc ... or do you also mean free of any processing, compression, eq, and such?
Also, I haven't been adding my quote to the body of my letter to the voice seeker, do you think that's really necessary to do?
A very helpful video!
Thanks again,
Dan

Hey Terry! I read where you bought a Neumann, but were kind of missing your KSM 27, which is what I use. Can I ask you a few questions about using the KSM 27? What is your technique for using this mic? How far are you from the mic? Is it tilted up or down? Do you speak into it off axis? What sort of pop filter do you use? I like the mic, but I have trouble with my technique. Also, do you run it through the DBX 286A?

Thanks, man!!

Hey Terry! Just wanted to say thanks for the fun that I've had with you and Trish on the podcasts!
You were the first VO podcast that I ever found on iTunes. Keep on doing what you do so well. Yes, I'm a newbie.
