Getting Work

Getting work as an Audio Actor

These are some of the ways you can gain work as an audio actor

Show-Reel
This is vital when setting out to get a job in audio acting. This is because this allows you to demonstrate your vocal range and your skillset to possible casting directors or producers.

Make sure your show-reel contains a range rather than just one or two as it will show a wider vocal ability.

The BBC also ask for voice clips to be attached to the spotlight C.V.

Join a Network
There a numerous network across the U.K for all in the entertainment profession.
Spotlight is one of the biggest and a likely one for casting directors to look at. As a Spotlight Member you would be able to upload your Show-reel and C.V to send off to directors

There are other Networks that are area specific so if your just starting out, then that is something to look into.

Radio Drama run actor’s workshops. If you attend there is a possibility based on your performance that they might recommend you for jobs based on the strength of it.

If your already in the performance industry in some way then you may be called after being seen on T.V or on stage.


You can also search online for Jobs. College students may require the vocal work of someone, and although you may not get paid, this is a good way of enhancing your ability as well as being able to place it on your C.V

Acting School

You could choose to go to acting school and find work through there, and possibly getting an agent at the showcase should you het it.
