Pursing voice acting is no different than any other career path or college degree. You HAVE to train! It's a necessity! Nobody wakes up & gets a MAJOR animated network or nation commercial campaign gig! That would be amazing, but it's not realistic. These opportunities come (in-part) from training in this ever-evolving & growing industry!

 

I know this isn't something many people want to hear when I tell them this, but it's the honest truth. The beginners (and pros) have done it - and continue to do it everyday. It's a necessity!

 

Even though training takes time, money & lots of resources, there are so many amazing studios, workshops & VO communities out there to help you get started when you're ready; on all different levels and in several price ranges!

 

Don't be discouraged! Be encouraged to get started & start pursuing your dream job! It's never too late. Trust me, I'm almost 40 and I just started!!
