7 Voice Over Audition Red Flags – RUN, DON’T WALK AWAY

from VO Pro: The Business of Voice Over and Voice Acting · host Paul Schmidt

Auditions are the lifeblood of any voice actor. They are the main way we compete and win work in our business.  Assuming you’re properly trained and competitive, the more auditions you do, the more work you will ultimately book. That’s a great thing.  But what about bad work? Work that is exploitative, unfair, or downright dishonest? How do you avoid those jobs?  The best way to avoid bad work is to not audition for bad work.  Today, I’m going to walk you through 7 common audition red flags in voice over. This list is not exhaustive and not complete because the industry is changing all the time, but it is meant to make you aware of the more common voice over audition red flags so that you can avoid them and the bad jobs they lead to.  GVAA Rate Guide: http://vorateguide.com Gravy For the Brain Rate Guide: https://rates.gravyforthebrain.com/ VO Rates 101: https://vorates101.com Recommended Attorneys: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashley-brooks-bb672463/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/robertsciglimpaglia/ Remie Michelle Clark's Story: https://youtu.be/euU8e7_wZfg _____________________________  ▶️ Watch this video next: https://youtu.be/xBKGp6_pApo SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/@vo-pro?sub_confirmation=1 The VO Freedom Master Plan: https://vopro.pro/vo-freedom-master-plan The VO Pro Community: https://vopro.app Use code You15Tube for 15% off of your membership for life.  The VO Pro Podcast: https://vopro.pro/podcast 7 Steps to Starting and Developing a Career in Voiceover: https://welcome.vopro.pro/7-steps-yt Move Touch Inspire Newsletter for Voice Actors: https://vopro.pro/move-touch-inspire-youtube Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/vofreedom The VO Pro Shop: https://vopro.pro/shop Say Hi on Social: https://pillar.io/paulschmidtpro https://www.instagram.com/paulschmidtvo https://www.clubhouse.com/@paulschmidtvo https://www.linkedin.com/in/paulschmidtvo/ My voice over website: https://paulschmidtvoice.com Tools and People I Work with and Recommend (If you use these links to buy something I may earn a commission.):  Recommended Book List with Links: https://amzn.to/3H9sBOO Gear I Use with Links: https://amzn.to/3V4d3kZ As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.
