The elusive VO agent is a rare entity indeed. Their primary environments are major metropolitan areas like LA or NYC. If you are residing in those locations, you may catch a glimpse of an agent or even walk next to one and never even know it. Tricky.
Here’s how to catch them!
1) Take Classes with Casting Directors and Get Them to Be Familiar with Your Work. After taking classes with a casting director, it is not unheard of to be introduced to an agent or to be brought in for jobs directly by the casting director. Also, taking classes with multiple casting directors is a huge plus.
2) One-on-One Meet ‘n Greets. Occasionally, acting studios may offer one-on-one meet ‘n greets with agents. Heads up, though: If you don’t have a few big jobs under your belt, can’t offer a really good demo, or don’t yet have a resume with a lot of casting directors on it, you may have to go by talent alone. Go with caution. Or, hustle and prep so you have something to show for your work.
