r/voiceover

Hi everyone.

I just wanted to share a little happy news and hope it encourages some of you.

I submitted an audition for a project that was advertised on Reddit for voice actors and narration.

I was excited to sign up and have a go...but I'm still building my booth/studio... so my only option at the time was to record on my phone, in my car, in between traffic going by.

*I got one of the Main character roles! And a narrator role!*

It goes to show that having the best gear, whilst nice (and more essential in the professional realm), is not the be-all-end-all for aspiring VAs.

As we are told, "its about the acting!"

So don't fret, keep trying! If I can do it, you certainly can!

Is the world of audio description something that's too saturated already, in terms of number of voice actors? I've been a voice actor for about 4 years and this genre always intrigued me but I also don't know if AI is starting move into this world either.
