New Media=New Voice Over Opportunities
July 7th, 2008 Posted in Actor, Finding Work, General Info, MarketingPodcast veteran and New Media expert, Doug Welch, says this is just the beginning for the slew of opportunities heading towards producers, writers, actors AND voice talent!
So what exactly is podcasting? Doug answers that question in my Voice Registry podcast interview tomorrow (Tuesday July 7th) and other questions about this wild west emerging industry.
When I asked him, “What are the opportunities for voice talent?”, Doug says podcast producers need voices to do their “bumpers” (intros and outros). He also suggests creating your own show to get exposure. “It’s about attracting attention to yourself.”
This new distribution can be an extension of your voice over marketing strategy. The agent, the casting director AND your New Media presence can give you a more powerful toolbox, and it’s inexpensive!
Find out more about Doug Welch’s perspective on New Media and the voice over industry in Tuesday’s podcast.

Excellent and timely podcast. As a voice actor, who has been podcasting since August 2005, and who has been listening to Douglas Welch’s “Career Opportunities” podcast since then as well, it was great to hear the two worlds meet-up in this podcast. Douglas really is a “new media guru” and had a lot to share to help guide voice actors.
