What Others Have To Say

My voice over career had stalled.  I used to do 2 or 3 a week and it had been a couple of years since I’d had any work at all.  I consulted Abbe.  She listened to my old demo, made some very constructive criticisms about what worked and what didn’t and we agreed on what I should chuck and what I should keep. We then picked some scripts from her vast collection that we thought would be good for me.  I went into a studio, recorded the new scripts and had the old stuff edited in, and voila, a new demo.  Two years without a job, and suddenly two in the one day. Thanks Abbe.
