Auditions

Season 1, Ep. 1

Welcome to The VO Breakfast Show! In our first ever episode, hosts Carin Gilfry and Jamie Muffett dive into the world of auditioning in voiceover.


As voiceover actors themselves, Carin and Jamie know firsthand the importance of nailing an audition. They'll discuss everything from the basics of preparing for an audition to the more nuanced aspects of making your read stand out.


They'll cover topics like how to interpret a script, finding the right tone and pacing for the project, and even how and when to slate.


Carin and Jamie will also share their personal experiences with auditioning, offering insights and advice that they've learned along the way. They'll talk about some of their own audition successes and failures, and how they've grown as actors through the process.


Whether you're just starting out in voiceover or you're a seasoned pro, this episode is a must-listen. So grab your coffee and join us for The VO Breakfast Show!
