We really enjoy visiting with voiceover artists. These are the people behind the radio, television ads you hear and see the instructional videos, audio books...the list is very long. Not long ago we were introduced to Laura Keenan, "Silk and Steel Voiceover" from Los Angeles who has spent years learning and getting ready to launch her VO business. Here you'll learn what she went through so that she could feel comfortable with her talent. It's a great story.
