Next steps
Finally got some time to make the call to Marla Kirban. I scheduled an hour consultation with her for next week, where I'll have to read some stuff and she'll figure out if I have a future in voiceover or not, give me some pointers, etc. The consult itself is pretty expensive ($125 for an hour, holy crap!) but she's highly regarded in the VO industry - one of the top voiceover coaches in New York City. And it would be something great to add to my resume.
She's gonna love my Simpsons voices... In fact, I'm not even going to use my regular voice - I'm just going to talk like Apu, the whole time. Even when she tells me to stop. Won't that be hysterically funny. As she boots me out of her office in the first 5 minutes. And pockets my $125 just for wasting her time.
But it'll be worth it!
