Hi Dawn,
Great questions.
Our user guides will provide you with the information you’re looking for. This profession is the combination of art, technical skill, and business. The user guides will help you understand what kind of commitment is needed to grow your skills and begin booking work.
Practice practice practice! Check out the sample scripts and begin reading a handful every day out loud. Record yourself so you can listen to yourself and improve on your skills while developing a critical listening ear!
Lastly, we’re always releasing helpful articles for aspiring talent such as yourself. Subscribe to the blog to get weekly roundups of our blogs!
Hi, I just started my account the other day and the only experience I have is my vocal coaching with Suchavoice.com. I don’t understand many aspects of the business end of things (i.e. deciding what to charge if my client wants more edits, etc) Basically, I don’t know what I’m doing and I have no idea how to continue. I feel as if I’ll never land a client. Thank you.
Hi Brian,
You’re in good company. Everyone starts somewhere, and the learning curve is a steep one! Take a read through our beginner’s guide. It will help you understand the industry and establish a baseline knowledge for you. You can also search for topics here on the blog, too. We have a monthly program called Voices Insiders that we use to bring you ground-floor advice from successful voice actors, and plan on diving deep on the pricing front in the new year! Subscribe to the blog to bring those editions right to your inbox.
Best of luck,
Niki
Hello there,
I’d like to build a state-of-the-art home studio at home. Could you recommend the best quality mic, the amp, and anything else I will need? I also plan on using Audacity as an editor. Is this ok?
Thank you in advance for your help!
Lin
Hi Lin,
Thats quite a project you’re taking on! Congrats! This is tough to answer because “the best” is different for different people. Here are a few resources that can help you determine what is best for you:
