VO A to Z

I’ve always been fascinated by voiceover. Whether it be narration, movie trailers, and especially animation. This book was concise and broke down the steps on how to go about achieving this as a career. The complete human approach to the topic was greatly appreciated. It never once sounds like a boring stale how-to book. Let the journey begin.
