Demo Reels. The absolute essential item that every single voice actor will need. We thought it was about time we chatted about demos, inviting award-winning demo producer Rich O’Donoghue from ioaudio to the conversation.
Rob and Rich geek out a little on the what, whys and how’s of demo production. We talk script writing, hiring a producer or DIYing them and we talk money - especially why demos in the USA often cost 3-times what they do in the UK.
Demos are an essential non-negotiable part of being a voice actor, and this episode is here to help those with several demos and people planning their very first one.
We also have a demo-themed Panic Room - taken from our FREE Ask Us Anything sessions.
