What will I learn?

- Types of Voice-Overs: Learn about commercial and narration job opportunities and hear more about other types of voice-overs. Which one will speak out to you the most?
- The Union: Many voice actors just starting out consider looking into what the union has to offer. James will talk more about if the union is something you should join.
- How to get the work: Now, this is the exciting part! What’s great about being a voice actor is that you’re able to learn a wide range of skill sets within this career. It’s important to have your voice-over techniques down, but it’s equally important to know how to market your voice-over skills. Don’t worry, James will provide some tips about how you can get your voice heard by clients and agencies.
