A VO's Journey is about helping new voiceover artists grow their business by listening to my journey to becoming a full-time voice actor. I have been an actor, coach, director, and teacher for over 20 years. I started six years ago in the voice-over industry and wanted to create a way to document my journey so other voice over actors could benefit from it. Voiceover is now my life, and I love every moment of it.

Incredible insight into the industry, struggles, and success possible in the VO world.

Today I finished a 4 month experience in listening to every one of Anthony’s podcasts. Being new to VO Anthony’s podcast and Facebook group are an excellent place to start. I first listened to the podcasts that I felt applied to me the most…the would be the most helpful, but after listening to those I knew I had to listen to the rest. It’s been worth every minute of listening. Anthony is an incredible success story and truly makes you feel like you can be successful in the crazy world of VO as well.

So much good information and wisdom!

Getting into VO can be a bit overwhelming if you don’t know the Ins and outs of this business and career. Anthony is a great guide for getting into and growing a VO business. Very down to earth and knowledgeable from first hand experiences, everything is explained in an “Everyman” way that anyone can understand and use successfully. A VOs Journey podcasts are a goldmine of wisdom from a VO talent that has been through it. Highly recommend!
