Welcome to Online Voice Over Classes from Aliso Creek!

Hello there, my name is William Williams..

... and I've been directing, performing and teaching Voice Overs in Los Angeles for over twenty years.  Until recently the ability to perform voice overs and make money doing it has been limited to folks who live in the major cites in the United States.  Los Angeles and New York have been the prime centers for voice over talent.  But there were opportunities in other ares of the country that were media centers.  There were voice over jobs in Chicago, Atlanta, Nashville, Houston, Seattle, San Francisco, and Orlando for example.  But if you lived in, say, Deer Lick, Kentucky.. well, not exactly a hotbed of voice over activity.

The New World of Online Voice Overs

But the times they are a-changin'  Now with the advent of personal computers, digital recording technology and the internet, the voice over market across the United States (and around the world!) has opened up to anyone with the talent, skills and drive to pursue it.  Voice Overs is one of the few jobs where you don't have to be there to do the work! I have many clients all across the U.S.  When they need narration, for example, They email the script to me and I perform the voice over job in my home studio.  I then upload or email the files to the client and email them an invoice.  And they PayPay the money to me!  And I'm still in my pajamas!  OK, just kidding about the pajamas part, but you get the idea.

Voice Over work is an exciting career for voice-over talent but you need training to develop professional voice-over skills to participate effectively in this industry. You often have just a few moments to analyze and interpret copy in a voice-over audition or a voice-over job.  Opportunities exist for voice-over in Commercials, Animation, Narration, Industrial Videos, plus new technologies such as Video Games, Digital Video and the Internet.

  The Problem: So How Can I Learn to Perform Professional Voice Overs?

I teach voice over classes in Los Angeles and I can tell you, if you want to learn to master the skills of a voice over talent, there is nothing better than one-on-one training with a professional voice over coach.  There are many techniques required in voice overs that may take years to discover and acquire on your own that can be demonstrated to you so that you can perfect them easily and quickly.  But I've searched the internet for voice over classes, workshops and coaching and I was surprised to find there are very few voice over teachers outside of the Los Angeles area.  So I asked myself the question "How can I take my teaching and coaching experience and make it available to aspiring voice over talents across the U.S.?"

  The Solution: Online Voice Over Classes featuring William Williams

I knew that using the internet I could reach voice over talent across the country with Online Voice Over Classes.  But I also knew it had to be done right.  A real voice over class is personal.  In it you develop trust in the teacher and respond to the instructor's positive feedback.  And a real voice over class is hands-on.  You can't read about how to do it.  You have to actual read voice over copy, record it, listen back, evaluate the performance, make improvements and then do it again.  Guided practice will make perfect. But you need to clearly understand what you are trying to achieve and the steps required to achieve it to make real progress.
