With such notable talent as James Earl Jones, Linda Hunt, and Donald Sutherland lending their voices to commercials, films, and videos, one would think that it would be next to impossible to break into this field. Not so! Discover some exciting new ways to get around the competition and actually turn voice-overs into a thriving full or part-time business!

Trish Basanyi, successful voice-over artist (Pepsi, Wal-Mart, Verizon) began her career in voice-overs part-time, and 4 years later went full-time with her own home studio in New Jersey. Since that time, she has recorded over a thousand radio and television commercials, web site narrations, training and educational videos and telephone systems, and has acquired more than 10 talent agents across the country. Aside from doing voice-overs, Trish is an established producer, and also currently co-hosts a podcast on the topic of voice-overs that is highly regarded in the industry among professionals and beginners.
