Comments
I often to things "on spec" for selected clients - it usually is an investment for the future. Some pay off, some don't. That's the beauty of having a studio at home. I can help wherever possible without incurring too much cost. Let me know if I can help. It will be my pleasure.
Welcome to VU! Weird that we have to "travel" halfway across the planet to meet someone who lives 60k's away! As far as I know, there are now 3 "Sarf Afrikans" on VU. I often have cllients asking me if I know any female voicers and, because I mostly work alone from my home studio, I always refer them to Agents. In fact, the latest request was 2 weeks ago. In future, I will direct them to your website... Enjoy VU - it is a brilliant meeting place with great people! Regards, Leon.
