How To Make Money Using Your Voice
If you have a unique and pleasant voice then there are a lot of job opportunities
such as voice talent for TV, commercials, audio articles and e-books, podcasts and videos waiting for you. All you have to do is to just say whatever script or lines that is presented to you and thats it! No problem, easy task that does not require much effort.
'Voice-over' (also known as off-camera or off-stage commentary) is a narrative technique in which an unseen actor's lines are heard over visual elements in voicing ads, TV announcing, podcasts, narrating documentaries and corporate videos.
Through technology, affordable audio recording equipment and principally, the Internet, making a living as a voice over artist living outside of New York City and Los Angeles is an achievable reality if you put your heart, mind and resources into making a career as a professional voice over talent.
Here are the steps to make money using your voice.
1.Listen to every piece of voice over out there such as Radio commercials, TV commercials, cartoons, trailers, documentary narrators, and reality show VO, etc. They're all different. Start with radio commercials. Listen to the characters and how the talent plays them. Then listen to announcers at the end of most spots. They sound different in approach, quality and delivery but it will give you an idea on how to do voice-overs the proper way.
2.Get voice-over training and coaching even if it's an introduction course to learn voice over basics and techniques. Voice-over is different from other forms of acting. There are certain skills one needs to be exposed to in order to understand their abilities and what they can offer to the business at hand.
3.Practice. The next thing you absolutely need is practice, practice and more practice. Read out loud every day to strengthen your voice and sharpen your reading skills. Magazines and newspapers are a good start. You can even read road signs while you're driving!
4.Search for voice over scripts and record your voice. Make two voice over demos consisting of 10 second clips. One demo should be one minute and another two minutes. Don't fade the clips into each other just leave half a second between each. Put your best voice first and try to show some variety if you can.
5. Find an agency that will take you on and market you, or find some clients for your voice work, from your own contacts. Also, you can submit your voice over demo in some voice over websites wherein voice over artists and voice over clients meet. Using the right equipment, skill and agent you can work a few hours a day from your home studio and make money easily. The agent does not even need to be in your area in this case. If an agent says no to your demo this does not mean they will not say yes next year when you keep working harder and make a better demo.
So, treat every job as the most important thing you've ever voiced and you will do well.
