Feeling like you’re the only voice actor who never gets to tweet about signing an NDA so other people will think you’re a big deal who signs NDA’s.
When the client comes back asking you to fix mistakes you made, but you catch them in the act of changing the script and hoping you wouldn’t notice. #VoiceOverProblems
When clients with ZERO VO experience suddenly think they’re expert directors. #VoiceOverProblems
I used to use Twitter to engage with other voice actors and hone my craft. Now I avoid it because everyone is so pissed off all the time. #VoiceOverProblems
When the client provides so much direction in the specs you honestly have no idea what to follow or where to begin. #VoiceOverProblems
It is my personal experience that recording audio works much better when you actually hit Record first. #VoiceOverProblems
“Are you available for an urgent voice over recording?”
“Yes. I can deliver this afternoon.”
“Ok, perfect. We should have the script ready by late next week.” #VoiceOverProblems
All my clients went on summer vacation. At the same time. For the whole summer. #VoiceOverProblems
“We need an emergency #voiceover. I know it’s Saturday. We’ll have the script in 20 minutes.”

That awkward moment when you’re in a directed session and accidentally belch mid-sentence during recording. #VoiceOverProblems
When you trip over a line so many times you literally stop and ask yourself if you’re drunk. #VoiceOverProblems
Here’s a novel idea. If you’d like a 30 sec VO, how about only giving me 30 secs of copy? #VoiceOverProblems
