A fellow for whom I’ve answered a few questions in the last several months asked me a new one the other day. “Have you ever thought about becoming a voiceover coach?”
I needed less than a second to answer. Yes, I’ve thought about it. I love helping people get better at what they do. Always have. But, I’m not really interested in coaching other talent as a profession right now for two main reasons.
First, I have too much more I need to learn myself. I’m happy to pass along nuggets and ideas here, via email, over the phone or even in person. But, every day I learn how much more I need to learn.
Second, I enjoy doing voiceovers myself too much to want to devote my time to teaching others how to do them.
All of which serves as an introduction to letting you know that Voices.com has launched a website for their “Voicey Awards.” Nominate someone. Read about the awards. Get information about the judges. It’s all there at the official website of the Voicey Awards.
