Voice-Over Industry to Grow 7% to 11.7 Billion in 2009, and Continues to Expand in 2010, According to Voices.com

Burlington, VT (PRWEB) December 1, 2009 -- The voice-over industry boasts sustainable growth despite the economic recession. According to statistics reported by Voices.com, the voice-over industry (http://www.suchavoice.com) is set to grow by 7.5% from 10.9 to 11.7 billion dollars in 2009. Effectively, there are substantially more opportunities for aspiring voice-over artists to break into the industry. According to Voices.com, earnings of voice talent have increased 82% in the past year due to higher paying jobs with longer contracts.

People are flocking to voice-overs not because they are a get rich quick scheme, but because more and more people are deciding to work for themselves during today's economic recession. Many people coming to voice-over training have recently been laid off from their corporate America job, and instead of looking for another position in their field they are opting to work for themselves doing something they have always wanted to do.

Working as a voice-over artist (http://suchavoice.com/landing/voice_over_artist) can be a great source of income. The ability to work from home and generate one's own hours creates flexibility and allows the voice-over artist to work around their current employment before eventually building the venture into full-time work.

"We have seen a marked surge in the number of clients who have come for voice-over training (http://suchavoice.com/Landing/Voiceover_Training) since being laid off of work this year," says Ben Werlin, Such A Voice's Business Manager. "In fact, one of our most successful voice-over producers and coaches, Brian Thon, came to voiceovers after being laid off from his corporate job. Now, just a year later, he has his own company, and he works as much or as little as he wants."

The voice-over industry is also slated to increase in 2010. The large recording studios are feeling the pinch of the economic recession, and the need for quality voice-over artists who can record, edit and produce files from their home studio is increasing. As technology increasingly lets creators and companies be more efficient, voice over artists are being summoned for video game narrations, e-learning tutorials, corporate narrations, and virtual tours. Not to mention audio book narrations and podcasts, which have been consistently on the rise for the last ten years.

Tony Award Nominee & Clio Award Winning Producer Dan Levine, and his company Such A Voice, offer seminars on voice-overs throughout the country. Founded in 1989, Such A Voice provides voice technique training, network quality demo production, and modern marketing strategies designed to help individuals achieve success in the voice-over industry.
