I may have to start a new thread for this question, but..
Does anyone here work professionally in the UK? If so, how do you find it? Do you have an agent, or are you in a larger agencie's books? Or do you work freelance?
I'm a student but would really like to find an agent or agency that sees potential in my voice to find me jobs on a part time basis while I study. I don't know if this is plausible.
Any comments? |

Hi Andy - fellow VO from the UK here. I may be wrong, but I wouldn't give anything away to suggest that you are only available to voice on a part time basis. You are up against people who claim to be available all the time or can turnaround work rapidly. If a job arrives in your mailbox that clashes with studying, you have the choice whether to do a balancing act and fit the job in between study or to decline/offer a later delivery time. I would get your work out there on your website or V123 and let the demos speak for themselves. Don't give anyone any excuse to move from your page to check someone else out.
I have a day job, but answer email enquiries whilst on the move etc, using the evenings and weekends to fire off auditions or complete orders. Unless clients work it out for themselves, most assume it's a full time occupation for me..... unless they are reading this of course.  |
