Voice-overs are hot today! You don’t have to be an actor to get voice-over work, but it certainly doesn’t hurt! With such notable talent as James Earl Jones, Linda Hunt, and Donald Sutherland lending their voices to commercials, films, and videos, one would think that it would be next to impossible to break into this field. Not so! In this class, you’ll learn about an exciting new way to get around the competition and actually turn voice-overs into a thriving full or part-time business!
The instructor will demonstrate voice-over technique and will introduce students to the voice-over business as a whole. The course will cover the numerous opportunities, the income potential, and the all-important demo and how to have it produced. You’ll step up to the microphone to do some practice recording, and best of all, hear the results!
