Hello Robert,

Unfortunately that project has been put on the shelf until I have more money and more logistical know how with regards to running a purely online business. For now I am actually in the middle of setting up The Voiceover Professionals Directory (not it’s real name) which is nearly finished except for a few tweaks here and there.

All the best,
taji

Hello Gary,

After studying the business and logistic side of the project for a couple of weeks I came to the conclusion that I did not have the financial ability to invest into this project. So I decided to explore other possibilities. It’s a nice idea and maybe something that can be implemented in the future. For now I decided to work on something that I have a little more experience in and that I can afford to put together. Which is the new Voiceover Professionals Directory. I’ve mentioned it in some of the newer posts and I’m making it pretty cheap to subscribe to. The idea is to create a comprehensive list of all the voiceover professionals globally. But only the ones who are serious about their profession.

Still… thanks Gary for your interest and who knows… I might eventually have enough money and know-how to implement the booth project.

Interesting idea, Mahmoud! Possibly interested in a booth, depending on price per year, how many mbs available, etc.

Keep me posted!
Thanks,

Hi Taji!

Fantastic idea! I’m interested in managing your Spanish Division, and of course, having my own booth! Keep me posted!

Wooo hoo!

I like it.
Although I agree with Peter that it will only be a small part of the whole, it can still be a part.
Put me down for a booth.

Good idea Taji. For those VO Artists who are into marketing their own projects and products, such as audiobooks, such a site as you are creating could be a unique and beneficial venue. I would be interested in having a “booth”. So I will keep a watch for this.

Best of luck with it.

Hi Taj- I think this is a good idea. I have done work at Librivox.org and while there are many good audiobooks available, I imagine there are many other types of work this community could produce that one would never find at Librivox.

I think the key to this is, as it is with individual talents, marketing the site. If anyone is going to benefit by putting their work on the Pavilion site, ready buyers will need to know about it. I don’t think Librivox does much marketing/advertising. We would need to.
