Know Your Voice and Get More Work

The importance of knowing your own voice: We can't be what we aren't, so we must know what we can do and not do. Too many of us try and do absolutely everything and that never never works out for us, then we get depressed because we aren't successful. How can we succeed if we decide to flap our arms and fly to the moon. There is plenty that every person can do with out trying to set ourselves up for failure. There is no reason to try and do the impossible. That isn't trying to succeed it is really trying to fail.
We can't do everything for everyone.The key to our success is inside the compass of our voice and personality. We must know what our limits are so we don't accidentally set ourselves up to fail. Our best chance of getting work is to be ourselves, our best selves our most skilled selves, our most prepared selves.

Some Thoughts On Reading Inspirational Copy

Aside from all the regular corporate narrations, voiceovers for How To Videos and commercials, there are Inspirational Narratives. We spend a lot of time pitching, talking and explaining everything from healthcare benefits to how not to get your arms ripped off while using certain machinery.
All of those voiceovers serve a necessary function. An even more important human necessity is inspiration.
There is a vast market for reading inspirational copy. The source may be religious, new age, leadership, communication, relationship, or success. The important thrust is always inspiration to live a more spiritual life, a more fulfilling life, a more complete life, a better life and whatever that means to you personally.
When we receive the copy for one of these projects it's important to really think through who the audience will be. How do they view life and their own hopes and dreams. No one likes to be lectured or talked down to, we all want to feel like we are in it together and the ideas are being shared. The tone of voice used in sharing great ideas is never condescending or patronizing. It is always warm, friendly and very personal.
In order for the message to be "heard" we have to be the story teller who is devoid of any affect. Everything must be "idea driven" and sound like it's the most reasonable conclusion.
There is hardly anything more important or a voiceover job that is more satisfying than inspiring or comforting people with uplifting text that contributes to their spirituality and peace  of mind while they navigate their lives.

- It's Important To Have a Dedicated Place To Record

People ask me what they can do to feel more inspired to practice and pursue voiceover work. I think one of the answers is to have a place that stays set up if at all possible. I know there are many situations where space is tight so it may not be possible for everyone, but if at all possible dedicate a corner or space that is always set up so you can just go over and lay down some tracks and play them back whenever you have time. You'll be able to practice anytime you want and you'll feel more inclined to keep practicing. The more you practice and develop your reading and recording skills, the more likely you are to get work:)
