Extraneous silly info ...
The word or phrase voiceover, also known as voice over, VO or voice
talent, refers to an audio production method where a person’s voice is
either broadcast live or pre-recorded in radio advertising , television, etc.
In Seattle, the voiceover may be spoken by someone who also appears on screen
in other segments or it may be done by a voice talent in Seattle. Voiceover
is also referred to as "off site" commentary in Seattle. A Voiceover
talent or announcer can also use voices and characterization as a narrator
of training videos and/or documentaries. Voiceover,
vo, a voice talent or announcer or narrator talents often don’t make it
in Seattle because the talent doesn't understand the character for which
they are auditioning, or they have no versatility or they haven't
prepared a unique voice or they aren't able to take
direction.
More of it ...
Seattle can be a great town
for voiceover and announcer work. It may be a bit rainy and or cloudy much of
the year, but that doesn't matter when you're working! I have some family that
lives in the Seattle area, but they aren't voiceover or VO talents. They are
good people, but they are not into the Seattle announcer or narrator scene. In
that respect, I've done a lot of voice talent work in the Seattle area and its
always been fun. Hey, its where Grunge started, right? Goodness knows you could
do a lot of voiceover work there. My wife used to live in the Seattle area and
she loved it ... except for the weather, but then again, she's from England, so
she was used to it. Anyway, there's alot you can do with good voice talent and
announcer gigs in that town.
So, how do you get that great Seattle VO gig?
Well, it may not be as hard as you think. The first thing you have to remember
is that there are a lot of professional voice talents, announcers, voiceover
talents, and narrators in the area, so any voiceover gigs that come up in
Seattle, be prepared to face heavy competition. There are definitely more voice
talents out there than therre are gigs, so be ready. One aspect you will never
be able to control is what type of voiceover sound the client is seeking. Let's
face it, even the best voiceover talents and announcers out there won't be able
to provide every single style effectively. Don't let it get you down. here are
some things you can do to increase your chances. When auditioning, try to be
among the first that either show up or send in a voiceover demo. Then make sure
the voice talent demo you do have is a decent one. Go ahead ans spend the money,
find a good audio production facility in Seattle and have your demo
professionally produced. It your demo sounds bad, you aren't going to make it
past the wastebasket. It is important also to be on time for your announcer or
narrator gig. Someone who is late won't be getting called back. Next, there's
the "first impressions last a long time" factor. Dress well and act
professionally! Nothings worse than having to deal with a snotty, bad tempered
or poorly dressed voiceover talent in Seattle. OK! I think that's enough for
now, so go out there and get that job!
