Today's #WoVOChat on the topic of online casting sites, or P2P's was so full of information, and lacked any rancor. Many of the attendees from all walks of VO contributed some invaluable suggestions that bubbled over into a worthy discussion on many aspects of the subscription sites. Frustrated...

#WoVOChat Today: Predatory VO Coaches/Demo Mills
Got a few minutes to drop in and contribute to the conversation??? Past #WoVOChats have been increasingly lively and fun. See Monday's Blog for a list of the questions we'll tackle. Of course, the conversation usually goes far and wide beyond the posted Questions and Answers, but that's what...
Predatory Coaches and Demo Mills
Yin/Yang Right there are two incendiary terms. They don't always go hand in hand, but they rarely tell a positive story. Oddly enough, not everyone agrees on who is or who is NOT a predatory coach. Nor do some coaches SEE themselves as "predatory"...so there is plenty of gray on this issue. A...
“Rates” Gets Rabid Ratings
Who said voice-actors don't like Twitter? WoVO sponsored another TweetChat yesterday, and the results are in: people like to "chat"... especially about the issue of compensation. The twice-a-month event on Twitter is open to anyone, but World-Voices Organization sets the topics and the guests. ...

Luckily, because of the awesome content marketing talents of our moderator, Pamela Muldoon, and the automation software she put in gear...you can relive all the important (and...

West of WoVOCon
Set aside what you know of FaffCon or any other of the many great VoiceOver conferences you attended recently. Oh, WoVOCon shared many of the elements of those great conferences, but this one was one of the best exercises in volunteerism and community contribution I can remember. That's because...
WoVO Comes of Age
April 2012, World-Voices Organization was born. This weekend, we celebrate with our first conference: WoVOCon. In two years, our fledgling Industry Trade Association wrestled with many thorny problems, struggled to earn legitimacy, took lead on some tough issues, and kept adding loyal believers...
