There are thousands of people who wonder if it is tough to find voice over work. To be honest, working as a professional voiceover is not any harder than doing any other kind of professional job. There are certain skills you are going to have to have and you will need to market yourself well in order to be noticed.
Do voice over artists need the right voice?
Has anyone ever told you that you have a voice made for radio? If you have had this then you may be up for some work in voice overs. The reason for this is that while directors do choose a range of different voices you will have to be able to do certain things with your voice. Having your voice evaluated by a professional company is a good way to find out if your voice is right for VO work. When evaluating your voice the company will do a number of things. At the beginning you will be sent a script that you will need to record for the company so they can evaluate you. The first thing the company looks at is the quality of your voice. Then they will determine how well you take directions and can interpret the script. Finally your ability to perform using only your voice is checked.
Getting voiceover work with the right demo
Having a good demo is the best thing you can do for your career as a professional voice over artist. In order to get the best demo you can you will need to have material that compliments your voice and abilities. It is possible to record your demo yourself but many people will use a professional company to help them choose the correct material and get a quality recording. Whether you go with a company or do it yourself you should rehearse your piece a couple of times before doing the final demo. By doing a rehearsal you will be able to figure out if the material is right and where you want to practice a bit more. The actual recording of the demo will need to be of a good quality. It will be hard to get voice over work if the person listening to the demo cannot hear your voice because of bad recording.
Professional voice over needs an image?
Something you may not consider when look at doing professional voice over is that you will need a headshot. Having a head shot to go with your CV and demo is always a good idea. It is important that you have a professional head shot and not use any old picture that you have lying around. Having this image will give you a more professional feel to prospective employers and show that you are committed to your trade.
Voice over agencies gets you in the right place
Being in the right place at the right time is how many people find themselves with work. The best way to be at the right place at the right time will be to join voice over agencies. Potential employers will often contact agencies and not advertise openly for voice over artists. By being part of the agency you will be in their data base and they will send your demo along to prospective employers putting you in the right place at the right time.
There are many things you have to look at when trying to get voice over work. If you go through these things then it will make it a bit easier to get work. Of course you should always look for ways to improve your abilities as well.

Irish Fairy and Folk Tales $28.92 Gathered by the renowned Irish poet, playwright, and essayist William Butler Yeats, the sixty-five tales and poems in this delightful collection uniquely capture the rich heritage of the Celtic imagination. Filled with legends of village ghosts, fairies, demons, witches, priests, and saints, these stories evoke both tender pathos and lighthearted mirth and embody what Yeats describes as“the very voice of the people, the very pulse of life.”“The impact of these tales doesn’t stop with Yeats, or Joyce, or Oscar Wilde,” writes Paul Muldoon in his Foreword,“for generations of readers in Ireland and throughout the world have found them flourishing like those persistent fairy thorns.” |

Celtic Fairy Tales $7.95 The success of a fairy book, I am convinced, depends on the due admixture of the comic and the romantic: Grimm and Asbjörnsen knew this secret, and they alone. But the Celtic peasant who speaks Gaelic takes the pleasure of telling tales somewhat sadly: so far as he has been printed and translated, I found him, to my surprise, conspicuously lacking in humour. For the comic relief of this volume I have therefore had to turn mainly to the Irish peasant of the Pale; and what richer... |

More Celtic Fairy Tales $20.14 In this volume Joseph Jacobs has proceeded on much the same lines as those which he laid down in compiling Celtic Fairy Tales. In making his selection he attempted to select the tales common both to Erin and Alba. He included, as specimen of the Irish medi eval hero tales, one of the three sorrowful tales of Erin: The Tale of the Children of Lir. For the drolls, or comic relief, of the volume, he drew upon the inexhaustible Kennedy and the great J. F. Campbell, who still stands out as the most prominent figure in the history of the Celtic Fairy Tale. Jacobs attempted to do what the brothers Grimm did for Germany, so far as that was possible. In Jacobs own words The Celtic materials are so rich that it would tax the resources of a whole clan of Grimms to exhaust the field. In this volume you will find 20 Celtic tales of Jack the Cunning Thief, Paddy oKelly and the Weasel, the Dream of Owen OMulready, The Farmer of Liddesdale, The Greek Princess and the Young Gardener, Elidore, the Ridere of Riddles and more. In Jacobs own words, The Celts went forth to battle, but they always fell. Yet the captive Celt has enslaved his captor in the realm of imagination. In an attempt to give a library of the Celts wealthy imagination to his readers, Jacobs has attempted to begin the readers captivity with the earliest recordings of these tales. And captivate he doesMore Celtic Fairy Tales not only preserves a cultural history, but is also richly entertaining. We invite you to curl up with this unique sliver of Celtic folklore not seen in print for over a century; immerse yourself in the tales and fables not heard in homes for many a year.
