Johnna Gottlieb, Voice Over Expert, Breaks Down the Voice Acting Biz for Beginners
Johnna Gottlieb, with Joan Baker, gives the skinny on how to build a small business from the ground up specifically for voice actors on the Voice Over Experts Podcast.
New York, NY, September 28, 2007 --(PR.com)-- Johnna Gottlieb, owner of Johnna Gottlieb Consulting, takes voice actors beyond the demo reel on the Voice Over Experts Podcast, http://podcasts.voices.com/ . Johnna Gottlieb covers all the aspects of the voiceover trade for her clients (voice talent and voiceover talent agencies), including where to begin, how to get established, what it takes to make it and how to stay in the game. In the fall 2005, Gottlieb joined the faculty at New York University where she teaches an in-depth course entitled, “The Business of Voiceover” and has been a frequent lecturer at NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts and Syracuse University.
Johnna Gottlieb’s lecture “Beyond the Reel”, co-hosted by Joan Baker, reinforces the notion that becoming a professional voice actor is not a walk in the park so much as a real commitment that takes labors of love as well as financial investment and with associated startup costs. Listeners will find out what they need to do before pursuing agency representation and learn just how important it is to treat a voice acting career like a real business.
As a contributor to the VoiceOver Experts faculty, Johnna Gottlieb will be lecturing on an ongoing basis to aspiring voice actors and professional voice actors via podcast on how to understand, hone and grow in their craft. Since the lectures are available in the form of podcasts, the lessons are hosted online and can be heard at any time of day at the convenience of the listener.
