- Partial Thoughts On Getting a Voiceover Agent

This is a chicken and the egg business. You need an agent to get the big union jobs and you generally need to have gotten some big jobs before an agent will be interested in representing you. There are many exceptions to this, but it will do as a gross generalization. If you start by getting corporate narratives you can land some extensive work. There are no gates to getting this kind of work. All the HR department cares about is, do you have a good natural delivery and can you deliver on time and on budget. When an agent likes your vo demo and says "What have you done", you can refer to your corporate narratives. No one likes to go first. Agents generally aren't interested in talent development per se, they are interested in how much money they think they can make from you booking jobs. They will be more interested in you if you can show that other people have hired you.
