Start Your Voice Over Career!

New Voice Over Artist, Ray Greenley talks about is incredible start...It sounded too good to be true when Rob called me in for a voice over job before I had even finished my studies at Voice Box! Even though I was a complete beginner at the start of the Total Experience class, the instructors seemed to recognize my abilities right away and worked hard to help me nurture and grow them.  Now what once was only a distant dream feels like a reality! I don't know where else I could have received training that would have gotten me this far in such a short amount of time! - Ray Greenley
UPDATE: Sept. 2024 - Ray has now recorded over 80 audiobooks for various authors and has received glowing reviews, as well as voicing several e-learning projects. He has joined SAG-AFTRA, and has also taught audiobook engineering classes for Voice Box. Go Ray!

Or Supercharge Your Current Career!

Veteran Voice Over Artist, Jim McCabe talks about his newfound success after taking the class...I have to thank you for helping me get back on the right track. Granted I wasn’t a novice going into the class, but never in my career have I booked work so consistently than I have after working with you guys. I’ve had multiple jobs each week for months now; corporate promos, local TV and radio spots, several regional TV campaigns, videogames and character work, audio books, a couple national TV spots, and I just landed the announcer for the ESPN show Draft Academy! It’s been incredible and it’s in no small part due to the Voice Box team. Thanks, Jim McCabe
