Voiceover Coaching

I love teaching!  Yeah! I said it.  I have been very fortunate to make a living doing something I love and I am equally as fortunate to help others achieve their dreams.  The training I provide comes from my years of experience and experiences.  What does and doesn’t work regarding everything involved with achieving a voice over career.

I know what you’re asking…what makes you qualified to help me with learning the voiceover business?  Well, here’s where I’m coming from:

  • 35 years on-air talent in radio (writing and performing commercials)
  • 13 years in the voiceover industry
  • Done voices for everything from video games to TV show, commercials, corporate narration, award shows, e-learning and more.
  • Have worked for folks like Tyler Perry Productions, Cartoon Network Latin America, Clash of Clans, Honeybaked Ham, inXile Entertainment (Wasteland 3 game) just to name a few.  You can see more about me here.
  • My broadcast quality studio has been used for national clients like Target, Credit Karma, Peleton, Robin Hood and others.

Please understand – to be successful at voice over you must treat your career as a job and not a hobby.  That means investing time and, yes,  money to get your business off the ground. “What kind of equipment do I need? How much will it cost?” are the most common questions I get and while  I will never tell you how to spend your money, however I can guide you, based on your budget.  To see the kinds of things you will need, click here

Coaching

If you do not already have a preferred editing tool, I will help you with complimentary setup of one of the three programs I recommend.  To be able to produce your own auditions and final projects is another step towards making yourself a full service one stop shop.  I offer:

I absolutely loveeeeeeeee Bill! I’m so glad i went to him to learn about voice over acting. He breaks down the basics in the first sessions and really develops your ear for hearing and adjusting your own tone for when you have to do it yourself. He gives you two different demos, edited and guided by him that sound like you’ve been doing it way longer than a few weeks. He gives you all the tools and suggests software that you need to be successful on your own! Even when the sessions are over he still offers to lets you come back (or do zoom sessions) in case you ever need help. I’ve learned so much from him and I’m grateful that I had such a wonderful teacher!

Bill is my Voiceover Yoda! From the second I reached out to him he has helped me every step of the way! From building my demo’s to even helping me book my first SAG AFTRA commercial! He is the epitome of an excellent teacher turned friend. He goes above and beyond to help when I don’t understand something, from editing to buying the right equipment for a home studio. He also let me have a lot of input on my demo’s and it really felt like a team effort to build something we both loved and felt confident would help me get booked! For as long as I live in Atlanta I’ll be using Bill as my voiceover coach! I really can’t recommend him enough!

I LOVE working with Bill. We did a full package training session and he produced two demos for me. His friendly and professional approach helped me tremendously. He's highly knowledgeable and has decades of experience. Best of all, he helped me learn how to listen and develop my ears so I can keep improving

Bill is great! Made me feel so much more comfortable and confident in my voice. Never did any voice work before, he knew that and took his time to help me sharpen my skills. He’s straightforward (which I love), a genius, and a great technician when it comes to Voiceover. 100% recommend!

Really enjoyed working with Bill to develop my voiceover skills. He's got years of experience, a fantastic ear, and is a lot of fun to work with. The one-on-one sessions mixed with the practical experience in his VO booth helped to train my ear for what is needed to book different types of VO jobs. I'm especially proud of the demos we made together, the quality of his edits are fantastic and shows a wide range that helped jumpstart my VO career. Can't recommend Bill enough!

It was such a pleasure to work with Bill! He's an amazing coach and a joy to be around. His critiques make you laugh, but most of all make you better. I was in awe of how thorough he was with editing, he won't give up until the sound is just right. I HIGHLY recommend Bill to those seeking Voiceover training. Thank you for everything, you were definitely worth the 9 hour commute 😀

Before meeting and taking classes with Bill, I thought the voices behind radio & tv shows were of random people. I had no idea of the training it took for the right pitch, the tone…..or even what a smile does. Thank you Bill for opening my eyes to all of that plus some. If you are seriously looking at V.O training, I’d highly recommend Bill Does Voices.

Bill is fantastic to work with! He was recommended to me by a friend and fellow actor. As soon as I heard the demo's she recorded with Bill, I booked a session with him immediately. I came to him to update my demo's and they sound better than EVER! Bill gives fantastic direction to help you create an amazing sound while allowing you to bring your natural talents to the booth. His coaching and support are unmatched! Bill brings professionalism with a great sense of humor to his work. Whether you are just starting out or an old pro, Bill will definitely have something to offer that will up your game! I will be sending all of my voice actor friends his way!
