- Business
2020 brought a slew of new VO artists to the table and many will try to climb the ladder to success. I started the Ladder with Will to help those climbing... and although we've parted ways the ladder is still a part of the journey to living THE VO LIFE... so those episodes are still up and relevant. Catch up on all of the OLD podcasts from the ladder before they are gone and for now, catch the new VO LIFE episodes here or on other feeds!

EP 141 - ILLUSIONS
Don't let those illusions get in the way... your or others. Being grounded in VO is one of the hardest things to do for me. I ride emotional rollercoasters weekly...but this new focus of PIVOT VERSUS PANIC is helping me. Learn more about me at troyholdenvoices.com

Ep 139 - What is RAW AUDIO?
How much processing are you doing? It really depends... is it an audition or a finished delivery? Are you expected to do ANYTHING to your files at all? Are you OVERPROCESSING? I'm no audio engineer but having worked with many and delivering well over 10,000 files the past few years PLUS I have stayed at a Holiday Inn...I think some of you are OVER PROCESSING your auditions and taking way too much time... and worrying about things that don't matter! {{voiceactor}} {{voiceover}}

EP 136 - Volunteer VO with Melissa Harlow
Voice actors are always asking WHERE CAN I GET WORK and it is not always about getting PAID for work when you are new. Volunteer Voiceover may be a place for you! For a VERY SMALL fee you can be exposed to many great and qualified NFP's and volunteer your voice for their cause. Melissa Harlow joins today to talk about her LONG journey getting this wonderful platform started and I play a small part in being a plae to promote it and to also offer services myself. Join us for a look into her career as well being a mainly "Fiverr only" voice and how she manages that with this new venture and traveling the world.
