Do people tell you that you have an interesting voice? Yes!  Click Here if you're ready!
  
Eric Stone   20 Years experience as a VOICE-OVER ARTIST and YOUR private Voice-over coach.

I hope I can be of assistance in furthering your goals and help you not only develop your skills but help your voice over career along the way. Call me at your convenience at 323-460-2580 or simply reach me by e-mail.

I have been a voice talent since 1979 with hundreds of credits in radio and TV commercials, narrations, cartoons, animation, CD Roms, books on tapes and film dubbing for foreign markets. I'm also a director/producer and cast voice talents for many projects in LA and across the US. Click here for a list of recent awards and credits.

I began helping voice-over artists in the early 90's out of personal requests and through the many voice sessions I was directing. Read about one student's experiences here.

I only take on a few dedicated talents at any given time. I work on developing voice range, character and work specifically in all aspects of voice production from animation to TV and radio commercials, narrations, books on tape, looping and lip-sync dubbing...etc...Overall I help artists discover their style, talents and appetites. I also work at increasing ability and broaden their range in voice production and mediums of expression.

Doing voices is a lot of fun for those who truly enjoy it and are naturally drawn to the field or happen to fall into it. The people who work doing voices and cast them are generally "cool" people and very unpretentious. Coupled with the fact that doing voices pays extremely well, it makes that kind of life style very attractive. It is however a very difficult industry to break into. But your talent coupled with tenacity and the will to succeed definitely puts anyone ahead of the pack.

This is what can happen when you get ready to set your Voice-Over training and/or career in motion.

There are 2 ways to train.

1: In person: If you live in Los Angeles or can commute to LA, call me at 323-460-2580 and we can schedule either a phone interview first and then meet in person by booking a session.

2: Correspondence: There is an initial phone consultation during which we will identify your goals, determine the number of sessions, and begin assigning work. You will then work on the assignments, put them on audio tape and send it back to me for constructive coaching via telephone and/or e-mail. You apply the tools and methods discussed and that will conclude session 1.

The process gets repeated until the desired level of proficiency and ability is achieved.

Here's what you'll learn.

  • Identifying your goals.
  • Understanding your voice range and qualities.
  • Working with energy levels.
  • Character creations and consistency.
  • Narration styles.
  • Voice rhythms and tempos.
  • Working with dialects
  • Natural tones versus dramatic tones.
  • Working with age, class.
  • Working with various voice placements.
  • Working with commercial voice-over 'copy'.
  • Microphone technique.
  • Breathing.
  • Breaking 'copy' down.
  • Selling techniques.
  • Voice-over opportunities.
  • Getting an agent.
  • Marketing techniques.
  • Sustaining momentum.
  • Radio versus Television spots.
  • Putting a demo tape together...and much more

Fees: $150.00 for first session and professional evaluation. 1.5 Hours $90.00 per session thereafter.  Fees are $125.00 outside the USA except Canada. We accept cash, checks, money orders, Visa, MasterCard, Amex and Discover.

For a phone consultation and to arrange your first session E-mail me or call me toll-free at 877-591-5400. In LA call 323-460-2580

I look forward to speaking with you.

Sincerely,
Eric Stone
