At Such A Voice, people ask us all the time, “What’s it like to be a voice-over artist?” So to answer that question, we went straight to the source: our Director of Operations, Heather Costa. Heather has been a professional voice-over artist for over ten years and has worked with thousands of clients around the globe, all out of her broadcast-quality studio in her New York home. Here’s what she had to say:
“As a mom of two young children, I love nothing more than being able to work from home, spend time with my kids, make my own hours and hang out in my PJs It’s always great to do something in a career that you’re really passionate about and for me, it’s voice-overs. Every day I get to act as someone different – a real estate broker talking about amazing properties, a tech guru discussing the newest Microsoft programs (jargon and all!), a college kid in an ETS narration and more! It’s an industry with a ton of variety and excitement. I couldn’t imagine doing anything else!”
