Welcome to the Demo Review series! 

This is how we’ll organize these reviews: 

I’ll play the whole demo, from there we’ll go through the demo spot by spot and review. And we’ll conclude with general notes about the whole demo, what I hear and what I don’t hear as well as any next steps I’d recommend.

Before we dive in, here’s a listener note: 

Hi Melanie! As a part-time voice over artist trying to make the jump to full time, I just wanted to tell you that I really enjoy and appreciate your podcasts. So many VO podcasts out there are 99% garbage, because the host would rather tell jokes, what they think are amusing anecdotes, and/or fancy themselves to be riveting entertainment. They profess to tell secrets of the biz, but they are just wastes of time. But not your podcast. You actually help people and provide usable information that newbies like me really appreciate. Please keep it up! You’re doing a great job! 

Let me get a little sappy for a second… when you create things whether it’s for work, fun, or whatever else, it often feels like it’s done in the ether. You create and it just flies away from you into the abyss. Your comments and feedback help to remind me there is something valuable in what I’m making and that is such a huge gift. Thank you for taking the time to let me know what you think, Jim. And for those of you who enjoy the podcast or have learned anything from something we’ve created over here, I’d love it if you left a review wherever you’re listening or send us an email.
