r/voiceover

I am looking for a reliable voice over artist with American accent for my YouTube channels. I run commentary channels and produce videos in the short form.

Interested artists please DM me to discuss further.
I am looking for male artist who can elevate sarcasm through commentary.

I see $5/300 words in Fivver
Let me know if anyone can do better than this.

This will be a very long term project and I need 150vids per month

Thanks in advance!!

Looking to update my demos: commercial, animation, and video games. Definitely starting with commercial. The last ones I had were produced by Chuck Duran (and they're fantastic), but on the pricier side. They're also about seven years old now, and as a working VA I don't feel like the adequately represent my range. I have a manager who gets me plenty of auditions, but whenever reel submission type auditions come up I know I won't get it.

I've worked with RealVoice LA quite a bit for coaching and like them a lot. But before pulling any triggers I wanted to field sources from y'all.

Hey folks!

I’m decided to try and step back into the field of voice acting after years of being on hiatus.

Right now, I just need some honest feedback/advice, because people’s opinions online are contradictory to the nth degree about the Shure MV7 and MV7+

Some say the MV7 is better, isolates sound, doesn’t mess about with auto gain, etc., while others say that the MV7+ simply sounds better with no fuss (in that it has real-time onboard processing for denoising and reverb, has a digital pop-filter, and and auto level mode “that keeps your level steady without you riding a fader”, whatever that means).

Then there are folks that say the MV7+ has issues that a firmware update is needed to fix, with some saying the update fixed things while others saying it makes things worse.

I can buy either, but I really need to know which direction to pick here. It’s between these two mics for a variety of reasons, so no need to look outside these two options. Currently living on the go with no real home or a place to have proper treatment, with all my professional gear from years ago stuck in storage (can’t access or use my stuff anytime soon), so I need the USB connectivity and all the help I can get from these mics to keep the audio clean.

Sorry for the long-winded message. All feedback is much appreciated!

Hello! I recently recorded a monologue as part of a demo. Can I get some feedback on how I did? Thank you!

Hey all — trying to pick my first "real" mic for voice acting (auditions, indie VO projects) and could use some real-world input.

My situation:

• Recording inside a closet (using it as a makeshift vocal booth — clothes for damping, no room treatment beyond that)
• Budget is roughly up to €180
• Want a fairly natural/raw voice capture, not overly "produced" or warmed up
• Need something that'll hold up for submitting paid auditions, so clean/quiet takes matter

The options I'm stuck between:

• AT2020 — cheapest, neutral-ish, but higher self-noise (~18-20dBA) and no filters
• AT2035 — adds a high-pass filter + pad, lower self-noise, slightly warmer/fuller sound
• Rode NT1-A — very low self-noise, but from what I've read can sound a bit airy/bright/shrill on some voices and it's very sensitive to room noise.
• Rode NT1 (5th Gen) — extremely low self-noise (~4dB), USB+XLR, but pricier and no high-pass filter to deal with room rumble and it's very sensitive to room noise.

My worry: I keep reading that a quieter/more sensitive mic just picks up MORE ambient noise and echo rather than less, since self-noise and room noise are different things. So I'm not sure if chasing the lowest self-noise number is actually the right move here, versus just getting the AT2035's high-pass filter to deal with any rumble/hum bleeding into the closet.

After a lot of takes (and a few drinks, lol) I gathered the courage to do this. I'm primarily an author, but I've been wanting to break into voice work for a long time. I think my range is average, but I hope it at least sounds good.

Any feedback is greatly appreciated.
