April was such an amazing month!! I officially became one of the new voices of Bally Sports (used to be Fox Sports!). I could not be more excited!! One of the first big jobs I did was for Pac 12 Network, were I was the first female voice they had ever hired to voice a lot of the college sports promos. I worked for them for almost three years and it was such a great gig to have to really work on my promo reads. I was on the mic every other day at the same time while being the voice of the Style Network. My life was all about promos at the time and I was loving every minute of it. What’s great about Bally Sports is that it’s done in half hour sessions. So as many spots as they can get to me in 30 minutes, is what we get to record. Anything over four scripts and I get paid for an hour. Promo rates really vary depending on the network. Some pay per spot and per tag if you are on a particular show (like Younger), others pay by time and amount of scripts. For Style Network, I was on salary and they had me twice per day, every day if they needed me. Gigs like Fender Play, since it lives on the site and it’s not just per show or spot, is a one time buy out and the rate is usually a lot higher since there are not residuals for it nor is it a network gig. Happy to do it, nevertheless.
If you are interested in learning more about doing VO for promos (it truly is an art). feel free to contact me so we can set up a time to talk some biz!
