Hi everyone, i would like to know what makes you stand out from your immediate environment. It could be something physical or a feature that qualifies you.

I'll go first, i have quite large feet from years of moving around barefooted and while growing up, i had to have shoes custom made as most of the good ones were made in general sizes only, i still have trouble getting shoes.

You should submit voice samples to casting agencies that land voice over talent for commercials, and other media formats.

You don’t need an agent or anything of the sort to get started, just a decent sample of your vocal work.

Get it submitted wherever you can, you’ll never know what might come of it.

I was a post production supervisor in Los Angeles for a bit. I worked with VO talent, many of whom had entirely separate careers.

One guy was a bus operator & rode his bus to the studio after shift change. He was awesome.
