41-1160J Voiceover: The Agent’s Perspective

This course will introduce students to the business and casting side of the voiceover profession. Taught by an agent, the course will explore how the voice-over agent sees and works with the talent and how voiceover jobs are finally cast. The intent of this class is to expand student’s knowledge of the voiceover industry as a profession by allowing them to listen to other professional auditions and to discuss the structure and formula of the proper reads for different products. It will also discuss the business of voiceover such as an in-depth discussion of SAG/AFTRA Unions, working with independent producers and casting directors and managing a voiceover career.
