I read a post on Google+ today regarding the topic of voice over blogs. More specifically, are there topics, as voice actors, we’d like to see covered? One talent in particular responded that they’d like to see more posts on how to find more voice over work.
I replied to the post, and I thought I’d share my advice here too.
