(Sarasota, FL) Millions of people pride themselves on their pleasant speaking voices. But few make the break to work as professionals in the voiceover industry. Professional voice coach and audio engineer/producer, John Burr, will speak about how to make that possible during a one-day “Voiceover Basics Workshop,” Saturday, April 23, 2011, 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., at 7825 Kavanagh Court in Sarasota.

Burr, the workshop leader and founder of John Burr Voice Dynamics, has more than 30 years experience as a professional voice coach, recording engineer and producer. His many years in the industry provide him an in-depth understanding of every stage of the production process. His recording studios in Sarasota and in Bethesda, Maryland, offer state-of-the-art post-production equipment and more than 100,000 music and sound effects cuts for producing professional-quality voiceover demos.

“Becoming a first-rate voiceover talent is far from easy,” says Burr. “It involves a commitment to the learning process and training with a seasoned professional.” He explains that voiceovers are used in radio and TV commercials, movies, animations and cartoons, and for corporate projects. “There is a wealth of viable opportunities for voiceover actors,” says Burr. “This can be a very lucrative career.”

The workshop will feature an overview of the voiceover industry, the basics of technique, and critique sessions in commercial and narration techniques. “By the end of the session, you’ll know if this is a field to pursue,” he says.

In addition to the workshop, Burr offers one-on-one coaching for individuals ready to begin or continue a career in the expanding voiceover industry. “We study the dynamics of script interpretation, develop an understanding of language dynamics, learn how to control the parameters of on-mike technique, and build confidence in your ability to handle audition and project scenarios.”
