What’s On Your Auditory Calling Card?

Voiceover demos are one of the most crucial elements of a voice actor’s career. They serve as your auditory calling card, letting clients hear your range, depth, and versatility. Each demo features different cuts, each meticulously crafted to showcase your voice at its finest. One or two spots stand out in every demo, making your heart skip a beat every time you listen to them. They are the spots you absolutely, unequivocally love.

My two favorite spots on my commercial demo are Subaru and Lindt Chocolate. Have a listen.

The Connection

Why do we fall in love with these particular spots? It’s because they resonate with us on a deep, personal level. They capture the essence of our vocal artistry and reflect who we are as a voiceover artist. You nailed the emotional tone.

Whatever the reason, these spots connect with us, and that connection is palpable to the listener. They can hear when you perfectly capture a character’s personality or deliver a message that elevates your feelings about a particular brand.

The Aspects to Look For

The spots you love the most are often where you were able to bring your authentic self into the performance. They are a reflection of your individuality and uniqueness. These spots allow you to showcase not just your vocal skills but also your personality, your spirit, and your actor’s essence.

You’ll find evidence of your mastery over your craft in your favorite spots. The perfect inflection at the right moment or an emotional delivery tugs at the heartstrings. These spots highlight your technical skills, understanding of the character, and ability to convey complex emotions.

The spots you love are almost always the ones you enjoy doing the most. When you enjoy what you’re doing, it shines through in your performance. The enthusiasm, passion, and fun are all there in your voice, making the spot enjoyable for the listener as well. I love Subaru, and I love Lindt Chocolate. I want you to know that and hear that in my demo.
