		<description><![CDATA[Choosing a microphone is one of the most important career decisions you will ever have to make as a voice talent. You should consider your microphone to be an extension of your voice, personality, character and sound. Many voiceover artists breaking into the industry, as well as those with years of experience call ProComm Studio Services for advice on what equipment to buy for their home studios. When it comes to microphones we prefer the Neumann TLM103.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As an editor of voice overs and a voice over talent, I’ve spent a lot of time listening to voices, and not just the ones in my head. Each and every one has their own unique tonal quality, interpretation style, phrasing patterns, and emotional palettes. But the one thing they all have in common is that they all have to come up for air once in awhile. Shocking, I know - voice talent actually breathe!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Who wants a movie line?

If something is worth doing, it’s worth doing well. That should apply to the “voice” of your production, the narrator. Here are a few pointers to help you select the right talent for the job:

    * * If you’re the writer, imagine the type of voice that best suits your script and then convey that information to the casting director. If you’re producing someone else’s script, ask the writer. If that’s not possible, determine beforehand the tone you want from the piece.
    * * Make casting choices based on potential, not just example. You may not hear exactly what you want from a demo. If you have room in your budget, go the audition route. If not, at least get input from seasoned production people.
    * * Even if you have a clear idea of the tone you want before the session begins, be open to suggestions from others during the session, including the voice talent. Believe it or not, he or she may give you an interpretation you hadn’t considered, but it’s worth a listen. After all, professional voice talent people do this reading out loud stuff all the time.
