Don't be discouraged by people who tell you that the voiceover industry is saturated with too many talents. Every creative field is going to be competitive.
Great video! Yep, my dream is to do VO's for a living some day...and it's not about the money either. It's what I like to do. Just put together my brand new Rode NT 1-A microphone. Working on rigging up a "studio" in one of my closets. Now, just trying to figure out how to use Pro Tools 9. Completely lost. Living the dream.
I am a Voice Over Artist and even though I made that comment about being a musician, due to my disability, I can no longer continue with it. But Voice Overs is my Career, and I encourage anyone who is willing to put in the effort and time to go for it!
YES!!!! I have been in Music for over 30 years professionally and Everyone said, you know how many people are out there doing the same thing? You don't have a chance!! But you know what? I had the Hottest local Band with recordings of my original music playing out in Minster England, and I say to all those wet blankets, If you don't try and stick with it, and Make it your own, you will never even know if you can succeed!!!! Terry has awesome videos and Blogs for sure!!
I concur with acsherm3! Other fields can be insanely competitive. You mentioned photography, something I did for years. BUT, if you carve out a niche, there is a spot for you! (And I'm working towards this in V.O. too!)
