QUESTION:
What is your advice for the new voice actors?
ANSWER:
Become the best actor you can be. Study acting technique and improv in addition to voice-over. Don’t do a demo until you are ready! Study marketing so you’ll better know how to market your career. Never go into it for the money! You have to love it, more than the money it can bring in. But when you do start making money, save it!!! Live below your means. Acting is not at all stable, no matter your success level.
