I've been working on my voice acting for a while now, but haven't managed to get anywhere with it professionally. I've decided to give Fiverr a try and just put out my first gig. It definitely needs work, but having this as a start is still better than nothing.
Good luck! Its a great place to start!

checkd out ur channel def have the voice :)
How'd it go?
@WesNohathas hi everyone ,if anyone else is searching for voice acting work try Ailyahwan Easy Dominator (just google it ) ? Ive heard some amazing things about it and my mate got excellent results with it.
Hey thanks for the video! During this quarantine I'm definitely am going to show the world what I'm made of!
Pharraohwilz how can I hire you?
I'd love to try this. 😍
How'd it go?
Yeah man how did it go?
I'm truly fortunate to find this video. I'm also at a point in my life where I don't want to do jobs I don't like and work with people I don't get along with. I'm looking to get into voice acting as I've been told I have a good voice and lots of energy. I know it takes more than that to be successful, but I'm willing to get the training to do it. Seeing this video has been extremely helpful.
It's nice to hear the face of this voice cuz I think I've heard it before xD
Did not expect someone I know to come up on my RUclips feed. Well done mate. Thanks for the vid.
Ah David my dude hope you're well, thanks for the watch and the comment! :)
I've been listening to a lot of videos on how to get started in voiceover, and this has been the best. Very clear and simple.
As someone who's new to Fiverr and on a VERY tight budget, I think my Note 9 honestly has exceptional recording. I've been playing around doing voices of my characters and existing characters that sound pretty good.
I live in an apartment so I have to record in my car at 12 AM or later in the morning. It's the best time to do so and soooo much fun to go back and listen to and be like "Holy crap, I can actually do that voice!" 😂
I keep forgetting that my own normal voice someone else might like to use not just cartoon voices so I'm super excited to begin this journey. 💜💜💜
I know this video is a little old but I just came across it now because I'm trying to break into the voiceover business. I've taken a course, bought my equipment and practiced recording and editing but I haven't fully completed any of my profiles on sites like ACX, Fiverr, Upwork, and Voices. My issue is that I am so intimidated by how good everyone else is. I don't really know how to create as professional of a demo reel as other people have. In all my research, I have never heard of a "gig video" so that's something else I'm going to need to look into. I will definitely have to check out your other videos about this topic. I like that you are very clear and to the point. Thank you for this video!
I just got blankets and foam to wall up a studio. Should be starting soon
Just before Covid started my husband and I started talking about doing voice overs. He has started submitting some auditions and we got some equipment (which we haven’t set up yet). I’m very excited to watch your videos on setting up a fiverr business. Thank you for making these videos!
How did you do??😃
@@erick.jagger I actually have a weekly gig as a Power Ranger on Mighty Morphin Brick Rangers. I voice Trini the yellow ranger as well as various other characters.
I feel blessed to have found this video- I gave it a like, and I'm going to show this to a loved one who could benefit immensely from the content you covered in this video. Thank you SO MUCH for filming and posting this! 😊👍
The thing that im afraid is the equipment the software etc...please make a video on that...
Wow ... Thank you for some '''real-world''' down to earth, honest tips. Sadly; there is to much crap out there.
You-da-man ...
Again, thank you.

This is something I've been putting off for a long time. Glad to see you've found success. Thanks for the info and inspiration. Wishing you continued success in the future!
Marvelous
Love the way you speak 🗣️
This video was excellent...it is a great primer for organizing and actuating a career...I'm very glad I found your site...thank you...
Thanks for the kind words! All the best!
You are the most believable on RUclips
because your sound quality is PRISTINE.
The proof is in the pudding...
I'm just starting out and your content is amazing! Thank you for the advice, suggestions and links!
Thank you so much for the video. I'm a newbie and currently looking at videos for beginners. This was fantastic! Wishing you continued success!
Some feedback: I'm a musician, and I find music backgrounds in what I expect to be an instructional video to be extremely annoying. I find it difficult *not* to listen to music (even music I don't like), and that, in turn, makes speech harder to follow.
You're a musician, you are attracted to the music more than voice. It's natural. I'm a voice actor, I barely heard the music. I naturally focus on the voice. I rewatched the video 2 more times. Now I can see where you're coming from, it could've been lowered a little bit more.
Yeah I agree with you both, I have learned and now i keep the music quieter in newer videos, and it is also not constant!
I'm an aspiring voice actress, I heard both. I like both. Want to get into voice acting, animating, and music mixing/making! But ONE thing at a time! 😂
I completely agree, it's like annoying music in lifts. Why do people do this? It's OK on promos and ads, it enhances the mood, but for the training videos, cut the music is far better and more effective for learning.
Thanks a lot for the tips and the links where we could improve.
Great video - thank you!
Glad you liked it!
Thanks so much for your guidance!
You are so welcome
I get why. You have a great voice. I want to get started with voice over and I'm trying to learn as much as possible. I bought a cheaper setup just to start.
That's great! The most important thing is to get started and get recording your own voice as much as you can!
The Rodecaster Pro is what I use for my podcast. We’ve had some sound issues, however, anybody who has listened to the show has told me I have a perfect voice for this endeavor. The show is off the cuff, non-scripted and me being me. I’m running Sterling SMK150SP condenser mics. I use a canon t7 camera and built a studio in my home. The space has a decent sound but I need to do something else to improve. I feel my voice is too deep, too baritone, but people compliment it. It’s odd to get compliments as I’ve always been the “quiet guy” in a room. It was difficult to begin doing this, but I did. I’m comfortable on the mic now, and would like to start doing voice over work. Perhaps give me a listen and some advice if you have time or the inclination. I enjoyed your video. Thank you.
Nice! Will take a listen!
Oh my! This is very helpful!!! I will start now! 😍
That's the spirit, take action! Best of luck, we are cheering you on 📣😁
Do u started
Great video!! I just started VO training and I'll be recording my professional demos later this year. I have 2 mics: RE20 & SHURE SM7B with a Rodecaster Pro. I'll definitely look into Fiverr
These are great mics! Yes, Fiverr is another great revenue source for VOs, diversity in your income streams is key!
@@FaulksDigital Thank you sir 👍
How did it go bro?
@lil trump I am not ready to record my promos just yet, I'm enrolled in more VO workshops & improv classes. I did upgrade my mic to a warmaudio jr.
Excellent mate.Like a breath of fresh air.
Appreciate this mate cheers!
Thank you so much for this video! You provided great tools to get started!
Glad it was helpful!
This is so wonderfully practical. Thank you. So glad to have been led to this video.
Thankyou for this vid! It's really inspiring and helpful :)
Appreciate the tips. Especially about the starting prices. Thank you.
Great info for starters such as myself, much thanks!!
Just signed up with fiverr beginning vo talent
Amazing! Great step to take this new year.
Good luck, I am here if you ever need help with anything 😁
Faulks Digital Man is there any chance we can help on discord I’d really benefit from just having a quick three minute chat with you also possibility to set up a RUclips Calab
So informative! The big thing for me is not caring for the sound of my own voice... But I have recently heard that what I might hear isn't the same as what OTHERS hear. Knowing this makes me believe I CAN do it. Doesn't hurt to try right?
Great video. Super helpful. Thanks for your help!
Thanks for the details....helps us starting novices🙏
My pleasure 😊
Thank you for this video. I’m considering starting a gig for voice acting hopefully for indie games. I really enjoy playing and discussing games and recently purchased a new mic for my setup and wondering if I can put it to good use and make some side income. I liked and subbed to your channel. Thank you for your vids!
Go for it, specialising in something like voiceover for games will definitely help you get started better than just being a general voiceover artist like I have done. Make it happen!
@@FaulksDigital where would one go to specifically target video game jobs?!
Amazing video, but one thing I'd definitely change is your "lowest" price for condenser microphones. The Lewitt LTC 440 Pure is only $269 and it absolutely crushes many of the 400-600$ microphones I've heard. This is just one company of a handful that really makes nice condenser microphones for around 150-300$.
TL;DR . . . You don't need 400$ for a "low" end condenser microphone.
Good to know and yes I agree, I could dive really deep into microphones and im considering doing a video on it, if people care for it! I've always loveed the idea of a Lewitt, may have to try it!
Hey! Just wanted to say that was such a well organized and highly informative video! You’re super helpful and so straight forward!, thank you!
Thank you so much! I hope to bring more videos like this asap!
I am starting out in VO work. I have mic and all. What's best way to start PROMOTING yourself. Like literally the very first thing you did like build profile wise- Reel? Also are there any apps you can practice with other actors just for fun and or professional experience ? Maybe one you can audition in.
Hi, so basically explained in the video. Started making a demo using practice scripts. Made a gig video and a gig on Fiverr. Started selling with just those. I personally did no further marketing but for someone very serious about taking VO to the next level, you could also join more VO networks/job boards (voices.com) and join more freelancing sites like Upwork. I would also make your own website to host your reels, advertise your prices and make content for social media.
I joined fiverr a month ago and I completed my first order....🤞🏻🤞🏻lets see whether I will get orders or not
And... Did you get any orders?
Informative and straight to point , new sub!
This is the ultimate video on this topic
But why not just a good sm57 tho? Great video. I agree, reaper is wonderful. Thank you
SM57 is a dynamic mic it requires more gain to pick up the nuances of the voice. Condensor mics do this much better, they sound better at the source for voice over (in general). An SM57 requires more processing.
Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful experience and for the fabulous tips. I wish you much more success in the future.☺️
Great job informing us with all the beneficial tips, Faulks! What's that awesome background music if you don't mind sharing?
I might give this a try. Ive already got a Neewer mic for recording music :p
I could listen to Josh for hours...
Ahah thank you, I best make hours worth of content then!
This was amazing info. Thanks for sharing!!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much for sharing!❤️ God bless,
Faulks Digital.🙏
I picked up the Rode Podcaster used for $80 on FB Marketplace, and I love it. It's great for spaces that aren't treated as well.
In fact I recommend this exact mic for people that can't treat their rooms because it's reach is so short. I also think it has a great character to its sound. I should get one myself!
Great info! Thank youuuu!
Am so so new to this!!! I love to do voice over
Good video. I do have a Fiverr page but tend not to crow about it as the voiceover industry is very disapproving of it.
People disapprove because its new and disruptive. Get on trend early and stay relevant. I don't think there's anything wrong with working on Fiverr. If people tell you there is, they either don't understand it, or their business is already failing because they can't pivot to stay relevant. Watch the industry over the next 5 years
This is such great advice. Thank you thank you thank you
Computers. They do make fanless computers. Unfortunately they aren't powerful but some are rather reasonable compared to a desk top but maybe they are good enough.
Oh I am sure, there are plenty of ways to get a quieter, yet powerful PC. I just opted for a laptop as it was the cheapest way to get a silent yet somewhat powerful machine
Thank you for the video! I want to work as a voice over artist, but my English pronunciation is not perfect as I’m Ukrainian , I have a bit of accent. Do you think it might be a problem or I should try anyway?
Offer voiceover in your mother language. You may find there is demand for it, and less competition. You can also offer English voiceover but don't pretend to be something you are not, advertise that you have a Ukrainian accent. It may be the perfect voice for someone's project!
I'm Ukrainian too. I don't do voice over acting, I teach languages for years to people from all over the world. And many of them tell me that they love my accent.
Having an accent isn't an issue! Just don't pretend to be a native English speaker.
Have u started
I made a fiverr account so long ago. And I have been trying to get on there again and cannot seem to figure out how to create new gig offers. Someone help me! Nice video btw.
Excellent video
Great tips man! I'm not a VO artist by any means, but I did my very first voice over on my latest video on my channel!
Thank you so much for the video
Hi Josh! I just completed watching all of your videos and can't wait to get started now. Could you make a video on how you set up your studio? or how can we set up our own studio at a low level with min budget? Much appreciated
Have u started
*I'm a noob Voiceover Artist in Arabic, Urdu, Pashto and English languages.*
Yes I can hear you Clem Fandango! 🙂
this one is beyond me haha
This is a really good material, and they way you break it down is also really easy to understand.
But I guess the biggest issue with me is my accent, I am not an English native speaker although I am fluent. And I do not have a consistent accent that adheres to either American, British or Australian accent. Do you think it will still sell on Fiverr?
Theres only one way to find out! Try and see. Experiment with different gig offerings. But be authentic, dont sell yourself as something you are not.
That aston mic has a built in pop filter and shock mount, you don't need those on there lmao.
Check my new video about how I record VO - and I disagree, it needs some light protection from plosives still. I know this because I use this mic everyday, and having a pop shield means I can be confident that my recording is plosive free
May you please tell me the title for that music playing in the background
You. Are the man!
No You are the man Jordan!!
I have a Blue Yeti, Lenovo LT, I-phone 13 and decent Cans (bluetooth) to start. To record my first 'Gig', how to marry these any or all of these things up and get r done? I do in fact want to start 'today'. My Fiverr account is set up and waiting for my Gig. Thanks!
thanks for all the great tips! now if only i could get past actually starting, i'm not sure what exactly, but i'm having a hard time not procrastinating lol
You need to find your why, and remind yourself of this why everyday! Find something that drives you to be your best 🙏
@@FaulksDigital you're so right, thank you for the kind words! ^_^
@@bubblegumbitch No problem, shoot me a message or comment anytime, you got this! :)
I love man!
I love you man. Thanks for this video!
Thanks for the tips!
Is a Sennheiser MD46 microphone coupled to a tascam recorder good enough for this kind of job? I would rather use this microphone on street interviews but I'm stuck at home and would not want to let the gear go to waste.
It will do the job just fine. The biggest factor is the space you record in. Make sure you have some form of acoustic treatment/use a closet if you have to, make sure there is no background noise. These things will give you bigger results than worrying about microphones :)
I notice you have a pop-filter on your Aston microphone. Do you find that the built-in filter of the Aston is inadequate, or are you just particular about you specific sound?
I prefer the sound of being nice and close to the mic and a pop filter just helps to offset any potential plosives that may find their way through. It saves time in the edit and is like plosive insurance
@@FaulksDigital I have the same microphone. It's interesting to get your input. Thanks
I just found your video!!! Good stuff bro! I just got some training with voiceover and I plan on signing up with fivver! But, I wanted to ask you and hopefully you read this! The mic I have is a rode nt usb!! Is that a good mic to use?
Its a great mic to start yes!
@@FaulksDigital ok, thank you!!!
How does this guy only have 1.81 k subs...?!
Thanks, I am new, and only just starting to be more consistent with content :)
Yes I have used Reaper for years now!!
thank you man
Woow thank you... It's inspiring... I wish if I'd be successful i could see you soon personally
I do voice acting but cant do it at home because noise from nabors, how do I block out there noise and stop them hearing Me?
Record early in the morning, 5am, or late at night, midnight.
Do your best to soundproof your room as much as possible, most noise comes through doors and windows
Hi , from where can i take the script for voice over demo? though i can speak some advertisement ads script but need your suggestion. Please reply.
Im looking to start doing voice acting, but dont know where to start.
Look up and learn from Bill DeWees on You Tube.
@@mrgpro799 thanks
That's awesome my friend you got a new friend here hoping to grow together.
what do you recommend as far as receiving scripts with fiverr there tends to be very questionable users on there that get blocked as soon as they contact you. how do you receive scripts to ensure you are not getting malware or viruses?
I am fortunate to not have experienced that myself. Fiverr scans links and so far anything malicious has been caught by their scans.
Otherwise you can ask clients to send scripts via google doc links instead of sending a file you would otherwise have to download
Thank you thank you
thank you for the tips.. ! its really helpful... But where could I sign up?
Hey man @Faulks Digital, just wanted to reach out and say liked the video and the information you gave. I wanted to inquire about what type of headphones you had around your neck? I have had the Sony MDR-7506 for several years and I am extremely disappointed as this is my second pair that the material on the ear cushions have been cracking and ending up all around my home studio and stuck to my ears. LOL. I would like to upgrade to something that shares more of a cloth/silky material like the ones you have so I don't have to potentially worry about replacing ear muffs again and again as I've already replaced these once with the same outcome of the material cracking. If you wouldn't mind letting me know, I'd greatly appreciate it! -Matt
Hi mate thanks for the comment! I couldnt recommend anything better than Beyerdynamic - precision german engineering hah! MY DT990 Pros have been the best headphones i've ever worn, and super comfy for long sessions. Anything from Beyerdynamic is a good shot! They have a 700 series as well, high recommend those too.
@@FaulksDigital Sweet! Appreciate it brother. I'll def look at those. Thanks for taking the time out to reach out and let me know! You rock!
Can you please provide some links from where you got your equipment. Including the walls for the sound. Thanks!
Thanks for the video! Do you recommend any courses/tutorials to learn more on voice overs?
The best course I learnt most of my skills from is on Fiverr itself - Here is my affiliate link for the course i'd personally recommend - track.fiverr.com/visit/?bta=57905&nci=7416&landingPage=https%3A%2F%2Flearn.fiverr.com%2Fcourses%2Fvoice-over-for-real-people-complete-freelancing-guide
I have a Samson Go Microphone
What do you think?
Its perfectly fine to get you started no problem! What's more important is making sure you record in a nice dry sounding space (a wardrobe, cupboard, acoustically treated room, home made vocal booth) and that you work on your own performance skills
Is a voice-over gig something that sounds like demos on fiverr or I should deliver a product where my voice is already over some video or whatever they might send me?
Just the audio
Does this still hold true for you? Is it still as good an earning platform as it used to be a few years ago?
Yes incredible, $10-15k per month but I will admit it is mostly from my video services. Voiceover gives me some additional income every month but nowhere near as much. But that is only because I have not put as much energy and effort into my gigs. They could be better. There are plenty of better examples of successful Fiverr VO artists
@@FaulksDigital thank you for your forthrightness. All the very best.
Excellent presentation! Quick question: Is iCE USB microphone a good starter mic?
Yes, it is! USB mics are fine to get started - Your room acoustics are more important than the mic at this stage
@@FaulksDigital Thank You!
Hi glad I found your channel can uou please show how to create a demo on your Fiverr profile,thank you
Hey, create a demo in your recording software, export it as an MP3 and upload it into the gallery on Fiverr
Thank you so much, And thank you for sharing thoughts about fiverr and voice acting God bless you more.
This was great thank you I really enjoyed it. I have set up my fiver account and got some gigs advertised. Do you do any sort of review service to see what I need to change and improve on to start making sales? Thanks again for the great content. James
I personally do not but check out Mike Nardi on youtube - He sometimes does live streams and reviews gigs!
@@FaulksDigital thanks mate thats really kind 👍
very very helpful tips.
Hi, I just watched your video on how to start a voice over. I believe I have a nice voice and I want to serve it to the world. Just today, I also came across Fiverr, where I can make voice over videos and make money afterwards.
Thanks for the tips you shared. However, I need more directions. Can you do that for me?
🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬
Do you recommend the blue yeti for starters or not?
If you already own it, it will work fine
Would be nice to mention Aston Mics :)
Check my latest video - its basically a video dedicated to how much I love this Aston Spirit!
