Voice Over is Voice Act mainly for commercials, cartoons and narrations, but today it includes many other areas. An acting or singing background is excellent, but oftentimes sales or public relations experience makes a person very savvy in this work. After all, it IS a business and your VOICE is your product!
In my workshops I teach the subtle skills of evoking all the various emotions and attitudes required to create the “pictures” from the scripts, and the technical skills to work in studio. If you become competitive, I’ll help you develop material for, and produce your Demo. I also provide Self-Promotion classes to help you get yourself known and hired!
Whether you’re taking the class to explore how your voice comes across to others or intend to go on to work in the Voice Over field, my goal is to help you discover your unique talents. Because I make it a very personal study, I’ve seen remarkable changes in people’s self-expression and self-confidence in everyday life!
What's on a Demo?
The Demo is your personal Resume and should only be produced when you are performing as competitively as the Professionals. There are many choices for your Demo tracks: Spokesperson, Narrator, Character, Dialogues, Audio Books, etc, so you need to know exactly what you do Best, Feel Confident in Performing, Be Objective about your performances, Know How to Direct yourself and Know How to take Direction. There are also several choices for post-production. You will learn all this in WOM workshops. Word of Mouth has been producing Demos for 25 years; our Demos are highly respected in the Voice Over Industry. If you have experience in Voice Over and are ready to make your Demo, give me a call to set up a consultation or send for my Demo Production Rates and Sample CD of Word of Mouth produced Demos.
