Good not great

This audio book was good. I was expecting a little more insight. I must admit that I have previous experience in the field so I was listening from a different point of view. Nevertheless, I do recommend this book for anyone starting out in voiceovers.

Excellent Guide for Voice Over

I took a class with Chris and then listened to two of his audio books on Voice Over. Both books are excellent guides, fun to listen to, and very helpful. I learned a lot.
