5.0 out of 5 stars Voice-Overs is EXCELLENT!, October 25, 2002
By John J. Proto "John" (Hamden, CT United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I found this book and the accompanying CD extremely helpful in timing, do's and dont's and how to slow down or speed up to fit in a spot. The accompanying jingles and examples are fantastic!

5.0 out of 5 stars So You 've Got A Nice Voice, November 23, 2001
This book makes it clear that having a 'nice voice' is as much a guarantee of geting voice-over work as 'having two hands' is a guarantee of being a famous concert pianist.

The book is very detailed and thorough with many examples of scripts for the reader to try out. There is also a free CD with the book which has examples of good and bad voice-overs together with many backing tracks and jingles to accompany the scripts in the book.

An excellent book which is rapidly becoming the definitive text on this exciting career.
