Personal Review: Voiceovers (with CD): Techniques and Tactics
for Success by Janet Wilcox
If you've heard all your life "you have such a great voice, you should be
doing voiceovers," but written off the idea because A. you don't live in
California, B. you don't live in New York, C. you haven't got a clue how to
get started, Janet Wilcox has written the book for you!
Expert, practical, and complete, Wilcox leads you through what it takes to
go from cocktail-party compliment to working professionalism, including
lessons, classes, coaches, renting facilities, setting up a studio, and
creating not just a demo, but the best demo you can. She explains the
always-fascinating problem of getting an agent and assures you that if you
ARE good enough, professional enough, and persistent enough, you will
find one.
Perhaps the most noticeable aspect of VOICEOVERS for this reviewer,
who has been told she has a great voice and has actually had a lead in
one TV commercial, is that its conversational writing is so appealing that
you are convinced to embark on the process of becoming a "voice actor"
despite how much work it entails. Exercises and contact numbers are
provided, along with a CD, making the book a great workbook as well as
an inspiration.
What distinguishes the "voice actor" from the "good voice"? According to
Wilcox, the ability to create character and explain "who, what, when,
where, and why?" in the matter of seconds.
A handbook for beginners and a guide along the way for working
professionals by an extremely expert and experienced "voice actor,"
VOICEOVERS: TECHNIQUES AND TACTICS FOR SUCCESS is also a
fascinating read for audiences who wonder how the people you hear got
the jobs they did.
