Title: So Inspiring!
Review: The thought of podcasting and/or narrating books has run through my mind a few times, um, a day, for quite a while. I've done research and have played with ideas for a while. This book was fun and informative about it all. And the voice-over industry I hadn't thought of.The narrating tag team authors, Yuri Lowenthal and Tara Platt kept the information hopping and interesting. If one can read cartoons, that's what it felt like at times as the team has a population of voices between them.Now, if only I can conquer the stagefright that silences me with distractions and anti-schedules to keep it organized.I think this is a lot more that can be gleaned from the wisdom these two grant us in this book. And though I have the audiobook, I feel I need the paper copy to visualize much of the information.

Title: clear, concise, and fun
Review: I really wanted to understand the nuance and neurotic questions for going into the voice acting industry, and this book has just been perfect! Very down to earth and constructive. Also provides quotes and thoughts from other people in the industry that alay any feeling that the ideas put forth are simply the main authors experience or bias. 100% recommend.

Title: Great fun informative book!!!
Review: I am taking the dive into voiceover / voice acting and this book is a great resource from two pros in the biz! They bring practical advise with their years of being in the trenches (as well as the booth) and what they have experienced as well as the ebbs and flow of the business. It covers every aspect that a newbie needs to have a great foundation to step forth in this strange new world of VO/VA. Highly recommended !

Title: Very Informative and Awesome Book
Review: This is a very detailed and very informative book that covers just about every aspect of voice over/acting. Everything is very well written and explained in a casual way which makes it fun to read and easier to understand. A lot of information is packed into this book and none of it is useless. I love it and it will aid many aspiring voice actors.

Title: Ther's lot of different information but nothing particular
Review: The book is quite interesting and there's a lot of different information but nothing particular. If you need a book on how to improve your voice, especially if you have some problems with it then this book is not gonna help you. Also if you need real advice on how to work with scripts and how to make your voice sound natural then again this book is not for you. The authors emphasize that first you have to be an actor and you need practice, practice and more practice. But anyway, if you want to know more about voice over industry in general and how everything works then it's pretty good book.

Review: I bought the first edition in print answer was exctatic to find the new edition on Kindle so I can literally carry it everywhere forever! The info is fresh and well written. Informative but easy to digest and punctuated with delightful anecdotes of voice actors' experiences in their trenches so to speak. It's one of those books that is hard to put down and is definitely worth reading more than once. It's actually an unofficial "text book"/recommended reading from my own VO coach! Give it a read! It reads like an email from old friends. Love you, Yuri and Tara - I hope we may meet in person one day!

Review: This book is perfect for anyone looking to learn more about the voiceover industry or get into the VO industry themselves! As a voice actor myself I found the advice and tips in this book to be very rewarding. Yuri and Tara give you the ins and outs of being a voiceover artist in the modern industry. They give their tips and experiences on everything including auditioning, vocal warm-ups, marketing yourself, what to expect once you've booked a role, and even advice on how to make your own home studio. Highly recommended!
