Today Peter comes out a shootin’ on Question number four from a post a while back about Voice Over Success.
A couple of straight from the hip quotes:
…to be successful in voiceover, you have to be able to perform and performance comes from doing not reading a book (unless it is out loud)…
…If going to VO class feels like a chore, stop! Get off the voice over horse. You’re done…
…You have to want it, this voice over dream. Thousands share that great passion every day. The art of performance has to be so deep within you that you dream about doing the work, not making piles of money or dating Scarlett Johansson…
A HUGE Thanks to Peter for taking 4 days and 4 posts to answer these questions!
I’ll wrap up and summarize in my next post!

Peter wrote a great post. I’d like to add that there will be days when you won’t be dreaming about being on the mic or even feeling like you “want it” that bad. Now if it happens on a regular basis, maybe a vaca is in order.
The dream and excitment and passion will ebb and flow. That’s natural in any job.
