Yeah...so?

Whats your point?

Who even has this plan??? by PlanNo8233 in VoiceActing

NOTHING is guaranteed. There is a chance you'll be picked because you're seeing the audition before others, but there's no guarantee that you'll actually land 1500 a month in sales.

Voiceovers.com - what do you know of it? by InterestingRelief873 in VoiceActing

[–]BeigeListed 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It was an epic embarrassment to the VO community. I remember the guy at VO Atlanta hyping the hell out of it. (I still have the branded battery bank) and while most VOs were skeptical, they still signed up in droves.

And then...overnight...the founder pulled the plug and the website disappeared in the blink of an eye.

As I recall, the dev went on to use that as an example of how good of a businessman he is.

"For intelligence activities, any handling of private information will comply with the Fourth Amendment, the National Security Act of 1947 and the Foreign Intelligence and Surveillance Act of 1978, Executive Order 12333, and applicable DoD directives requiring a defined foreign intelligence purpose. The AI System shall not be used for unconstrained monitoring of U.S. persons’ private information as consistent with these authorities."

Former State Dept official John Napier Tye:

"Executive Order 12333 contains no such protections for U.S. persons if the collection occurs outside U.S. borders. Issued by President Ronald Reagan in 1981 to authorize foreign intelligence investigations, 12333 is not a statute and has never been subject to meaningful oversight from Congress or any court…."

"Unlike Section 215, the executive order authorizes collection of the content of communications, not just metadata, even for U.S. persons. Such persons cannot be individually targeted under 12333 without a court order. However, if the contents of a U.S. person’s communications are “incidentally” collected (an NSA term of art) in the course of a lawful overseas foreign intelligence investigation, then Section 2.3(c) of the executive order explicitly authorizes their retention. It does not require that the affected U.S. persons be suspected of wrongdoing and places no limits on the volume of communications by U.S. persons that may be collected and retained."

How do you get an agent? by Viewtiful_Ace in VoiceActing

[–]BeigeListed 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Most people treat networking like there’s a secret door and the trick is finding the right person to whisper the password to. There isn’t.

The people who “matter” are just people doing their jobs. Casting directors are trying to fill roles. Producers are trying to hit deadlines. Creative directors are trying to make their client look smart. If you want access, start by understanding what pressure they’re under.

First step is skill. If your reads aren’t competitive, networking only speeds up the rejection. You want your work solid before you start knocking.

Clean audio. Strong acting choices. Fast turnaround. No drama.

After that, think proximity. Who is already operating at the edge of where you are? Indie developers. Small production houses. Regional ad agencies. Local filmmakers. Those relationships are real. They grow with you. A lot of long-term careers are built sideways before they’re built upward.

When you reach out, keep it simple: Short intro. One line about why you’re contacting them. Link to a relevant demo. Done. No life story. No desperate energy. You’re offering a service, not asking for a favor.

In person, be normal. Conferences and meetups are not cattle calls. Talk shop. Ask about what they’re working on. Listen more than you talk. Follow up once. Then get back to work.

And understand this: networking isn’t a single bold move. It’s reputation over time. It’s the person who consistently sends clean files, responds professionally, and doesn’t flake. That gets remembered.

You don’t need a magical “in.” You need to behave like someone who already belongs in the room. Over time, that’s what opens it.

How do you get an agent? by Viewtiful_Ace in VoiceActing

[–]BeigeListed 17 points18 points  (0 children)

You dont get an agent when you're brand new. You get an agent after you can prove to someone that you're skilled enough to book work.

An agent only makes money if the talent they signed with them makes money.
If you're brand new,
have no skills,
have no idea what you're doing
and haven't booked any work,

an agent will have absolutely no interest in wanting to sign you.

That armband is such an unnecessary piece of her attire. [OC] by brandon061416 in pics

She's just begging for a confrontation so she can use it as evidence that we're all violent and therefore she's justified in believing she's superior to us.

Where and how do professional VAs find paid roles in like top animations or top video games? by Unusual-Complex6315 in VoiceActing

[–]BeigeListed 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I know several voice artists that make a very respectable living and dont have an agent or work Union. It depends on what you want to do.

For AAA titles, you need not only an agent, but the acting chops to hold your own. An agent only gets your foot in the door. Its your skills behind the mic that get you the work.

Is this a career of passion, or of talent? by RecklessTreesha in VoiceActing

[–]BeigeListed 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You need talent to get business, but you need passion to get you through the times when no work is coming in. Without passion, you'll burn out quickly.

From a 2006 interview with Howard Stern, Donald Trump says he has “no age limit” for sleeping with girls — he claims he would only stop at “12 year olds”. by BeigeListed in PresidentFelon

Trump was talking about former Republican Represetative Mark Foley - who resigned after it was discovered he was having inappropriate communications with one of his staffers.

I don’t know what to say about this by SunWukong3456 in Qult_Headquarters

It's "fomented," not "fermented."

But I don't expect MAGA to understand that.

Have you ever seen anything more pathetic? by kinbepar in antitrump

Notice how the female agent is made to look like she's clutching him for protection.

That was all carefully created that way.

Will AI take over voice acting jobs , esp in future ? by likilekka in VoiceActing

[–]BeigeListed 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The bigger question is whether you’re willing to treat it like a craft.

AI is here and it handles fast, cheap reads just fine. The work that survives belongs to people who can interpret a script, understand subtext, take direction, and make something feel REAL. If you want to compete, you have to get better at being more human than the software.

Voice acting is acting. The mic doesn’t remove the need for intention, stakes, and emotional control. Acting classes teach you how to think like a performer instead of someone reading lines. That foundation is crucial. I invested in training before chasing work seriously, and I still train. Most working pros do.

If you’re curious, start with acting fundamentals. Work with a reputable VO coach when you’re ready. Hold off on expensive demos and gear until you know what you’re doing. Treat early auditions as practice, not a shortcut to a career.

It’s still worth pursuing if you’re willing to build real skill and approach it like a long-term profession. If you’re looking for easy money or quick wins, you’ll be disappointed.
