This is just a thought. I recently tried to contact a voice over professional to ask her/him permission for something. I looked around her/his website but couldn’t find a way to contact him/her except via a contact form.
There is nothing strange about that… people hate to list their emails because they don’t want to get spammed so they use a contact form so that their email addresses are hidden. I do it myself on my website but since some people seem to dislike using the form system I decided to list my email but as a jpg image file so that the email harvesting bots (I always think of them as looking like the over-tentacled robots from the matrix.)

Good Day to all ye gentlefolk!
Today I shall showcase a massive collection of voice over related videos from around the intertubes. I will kick off the collection with a seminar by Kristine Oller called “Ditching Your Day Job”. I will feature some of the videos as embedded vids and others as just links so as not make this post a scroll-down fest.
Since many of these videos are tutorials on voiceover networking or vo equipment… I will move the listing of these to the TVE free tutorials page later this week.

Welcome folks… this could probably be one of the longest posts ever featured on TVE so put on your spectacles and get comfy.
I gave the previous post “Taji’s Frankenstein Monster : The Perfect VO Casting Site” a few days more as the feature on the blog than I planned… just to see how many more voice actors and agents would leave suggestions.
Not surprisingly the post received a great amount of hits …. many people contacted me directly and told me how excited they were about reading the comments and suggestions left in the previous post.
The frustrating thing to me, of course, is that so few people left their opinion. I’m sure the industry has thousands upon thousands of talent out there dying to speak, and although this perplexes me I still believe that “the show much go on” and the purpose of the post was not to see how many could participate but to see what ideas and suggestions could be derived from the comments to improve the Voice Over Casting site (specifically the p2p ones) experience.
