My Voice Experience

My first exposure to the world of voice-overs came thru a very talented individual named Steve Harris. He is well-known throughout the industry of being one of the best voice-over talents and coaches in the business. I enrolled in his class in the Summer of 2008 at the School of Visual Arts.

My first impressions of my natural voice-over talent was along the lines of good, but I know that I could do better. And it turned out that Steve agreed for that he proclaimed of me having a great natural voice, but I needed more practice in order to take this profession more seriously.

As a result, I continued to take private voice-over lessons with Mr. Harris over the course of 6 months. It was definitely beneficial to learn from him because I feel as though that I am a significantly better voice-over talent that I was when I first started last year.

Eventually, I recorded my demo with Steve after approximately 8 months of training and I am now ready to explore the vast world of voice-overs!
