Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)The massive amount of helpful information in this book is marred by only two things:
o It desperately needs some copy editing to remove the sentence fragments and other "word-processing glitches," and
o The discussions of technology need to be reviewed by someone with a firmer grasp of how such things actually work.
Because of this, I would give it 4-1/2 stars instead of 5 if that rating were available.
In the big picture, however, these are minor quibbles with a book that otherwise covers a lot of ground and answers a lot of questions that aspiring voice actors would have. It provides an in-depth look at the voice-over business (with particular focus on Los Angeles) from the perspective of a busy, in-demand performer who has paid enough dues to know what she's talking about, and because it is fairly new it covers recent developments that older books omit. Certainly well worth the modest investment for anyone wanting to know more about this business.
