This site is for all levels of ability- from those utterly new to voice acting to amateurs to working pros. You’ll find no fees and no ads- just practical, encouraging insight.
I’ve distilled for you what I’ve learned from my over three decades as a professional voice actor in Hollywood, as well as five decades of live performing.

Hello,
My name is Brandon. I am interested in voice overs. I was wondering if you could give me advice on how to get started in the business.
Thank you
Everything I could tell you is on this site.
thank you so much dee. you’re advice is really helpful for me and gives me hope to persue this path of becoming a V.O. i already can do several voices but i’ve been practicing channeling different emotions in each voice i do (happy, angry, sad, crying, dark, serious etc). my younger brother and i (he’s a big fan of you too) always recite the lines from out favorite shows and games, i guess that helps, right?
Keep at it! Keep having fun! Now to find an audience!
thanks. i’ll do my best .
Hey Dee! Thanks so much for putting together this website. I got the amazing privilege of meeting John DiMaggio, Phil Lamarr, Lauren Tom, and Maurice LaMarche this week at Dragon Con. They highly recommended your website to everyone they spoke to. I’m just getting started browsing it but I just wanted to say thanks for the amazing information you’ve compiled here for everyone.
You’re welcome! Those are all terrific top drawer folks!
