BREAK INTO VOICE OVER INDUSTRY

Here are some tips on breaking into the industry and building a reputation as a reliable and professional voice actor:

-be creative with your voice: many voice actors often feel that the words “professional” and “commercial” equate to “boring”. Work hard on a proficient, clear voice by all means, but don´t eradicate local accents and dialect. Instead, build a wide-ranging demo reel of creative performances. Lots of campaigns can attract better engagement when local dialects are used, so embrace these nuances to have a better chance of landing more diverse voice over roles.

-be proficient in other languages: the openness of the World wide web has been incredibly beneficial to companies across all industries, allowing them to target new audiences in global territories. Voice actors who have experience in foreign language and work to hone their accent and learn local quirks can open themselves to a huge range of targeted voice over opportunities, translation work and more. Get it right, and you can help commercial enterprises reach out to new international audiences.

-partner with the right agency: professional voice acting goes beyond the vocals. Similarly, agencies are adapting to the changing needs of potential clients. They have to do more than supply the talent. They also work with actors to enhance and perfect their natural abilities, provide pristine recording conditions in specialist soundproofed environments, localize content to make it engaging and accurate for audiences and provide post-production services as synchronization, splitting and mixing.

Working with the right agency not only opens you up to more commercial voice opportunities, but also helps artists discover themselves and excel in a highly competitive, creative industry.
