Make money with your voice online:
I'm Writing to talk to you about a perfect voice over job for beginners this is how i started in the voice over industry i had an idea for a friend of mine to become a voiceover artist because he has an amazing voice and then i thought well what if i did it myself so i went on amazon.
I bought a microphone and if you click on the links in the description below this video you will see the exact microphones that i use but i started off with a blue yeti which is a microphone that a lot of different youtubers use and since then i have upgraded to different rode.
Microphones so i bought my microphone on amazon and then i basically turned one of my closets into a makeshift sound booth basically instead of buying acoustic foam i started off just recording myself in front of all of my clothes.
Because all of those clothes in my closet acted as a sound barrier and because the closet is small there's not as much echo or reverb especially with all of the different clothes so really i just bought a.
How to Make Money on YouTube (for Artists):
microphone it was very affordable and i recorded myself using the free program audacity and then i did some basic audio editing and made myself a demo.
Reel i then uploaded that demo reel to upwork and i started to apply to different jobs now of course when you're getting started don't expect to make the going rate of what a voice over artist would charge you want to start with smaller jobs.
And maybe they don't pay great but you'll start to get reviews and little by little you can get more and more jobs i'm sure you've seen on youtube a lot of top 5 or top 10 youtube channels.
Outsource your youtube voice over project:
Where they basically are just saying you know the top five most beautiful women in hollywood for example well i found a job on upwork doing all of those different voiceovers so i would say i was making between 15 to 20 dollars an hour and this is hour of work not audio hour if the voiceover was around 10 minutes long it probably took me one to two hours to record the voiceover and edit it because of course.
You have to edit out all these different mouth sounds or breaths and leave a certain amount of space between lines based on what the client tells you but in today's Article i'm going to show you on upwork how you can find these kinds of jobs we'll talk about.
What you need how to apply to these jobs and in future tutorials i'm going to teach you how to do audio editing in more detail again if you click on the links in The Site Heder
Microphone i used when i was first getting started now do you need to be a native english speaker absolutely not there are a lot of jobs available that are not just for the english language and also a lot of people who do these voiceover jobs are not native english speakers but they speak english and it's okay if they have an accent so you can look for jobs either in your own language or in any language you speak even if it's not your native anguage
Sell Your Voice And Make $100 - $300 Per Minute:
and if you can't afford a microphone it doesn't have to be one of the high-end microphones you can try to do a demo reel using any microphone that you have but it should be better quality than your phone or your computer and if you can't afford to buy a microphone brand new you should go to a secondhand shop or check facebook marketplace and see if you can get a deal for a used microphone just today i went into a secondhand shop and i saw a yeti microphone.
For half the price of what it is new on amazon but this is exactly how i got started in the industry and now if you look on my upwork profile you can see i've earned over 90 000 us dollars and the majority of this comes from voice overacting okay so now we're going to jump into upwork and i'm going to show you where you can apply to these kinds of jobs okay so you can see that a few days ago i received a few different.
Opportunities via email from upwork youtube voiceover artist they're paying between twenty to ninety dollars per hour another one for a voice over artist for youtube videos they're paying a a fixed rate of 15 for a 1400 to 1700 word script and the reason we are focusing on voiceovers for youtube videos is that usually people are not expecting studio quality for
Over The Reeded
These voiceovers they're not paying
enough to expect perfect quality they're
paying a low budget amount so it's okay
to apply to these kinds of jobs because
they don't expect you to have a top of
The line microphone or a sound booth for
example so again what you need is a
microphone an external microphone record
in a small space with for example like a
closet that you've turned into a sound
booth by putting in a lot of clothes
maybe even some pillows or a mattress or
something just to reduce the Echo and
Reverb and also it's so important that
you have a pop filter this here is a pop
filter I've linked you to one in the
description below this video and
basically what this does is it Clips on
either a desk or onto your microphone
itself and this part has to be in front
of the microphone and that way when you
are speaking into the microphone the
microphone is not going to pick up on
the P's and s's because without one of
these every time you say a word that
contains an s or a p it will really pick
up and make pops on your microphone so
you need to have this to reduce it these
are super cheap you can get them for
under ten dollars and this is imperative
to have so your audio quality is decent
and doesn't have these high P and S
sounds so let's go on to upwork and find
out how we can apply to these jobs and
how to search for these jobs so at the
top you can either go here under search
whereas says jobs and just type in
voiceover for YouTube or you can click
find work find work
this is going to bring you to the search
engine here and we're going to type in
voice over YouTube now you might also
want to put in other keywords like
narrator YouTube Voice YouTube and you
can see here we've got voice YouTube
voiceover artist voiceover for a luxury
YouTube channel this person for example
entry level they are paying fifty
dollars for five scripts so they're
paying ten dollars per script again thi
is extremely low paid for a voiceover
but these are the kinds of jobs you can
apply to without being a professional
these jobs are great for just getting
started to build your portfolio before
you're able to afford better equipment
and apply to higher paid jobs so here I
recommend under client info you put
payment verified clients you can also
put entry intermediate or expert if
you're just getting started I recommend
entry or even intermediate if you have a
good microphone and you know a bit more
about audio editing and you can see
there are other languages as well this
one they want a German voiceover and
maybe you will type in whatever keyword
it is voice over in your own language to
find voiceovers in the language that you
speak so again there's more voice over
artists voice over artists
so when you want to apply to one of
these jobs let's say I wanted to apply
to this one here the client has a pretty
good rating they've spent money so I
know that this is probably a client I
can trust let's say you click on it and
to apply to this job and what you'll do
is you'll click submit a proposal
and then here you're going to scroll
down and you'll put in the amount you're
going to bid for the job again they've
said fifty dollars for five scripts so
they're willing to pay ten dollars per
script which upwork takes 20 so you
would only receive eight dollars again
this is not good paying jobs for
voiceovers but it is a way to get
started to get your foot in the industry
to have reviews on your profile to be
able to attract better clients this is
what I did to get started I took a lot
of low budget jobs just to build up my
experience level and reviews on my
experience level and reviews on my
portfolio before I was able to accept
the hundred dollar two hundred dollar
jobs here under how long will this
project take it'll say less than one
month
and then here's a chance to put in your
cover letter now if you do not have any
experience again you need to record your
own demo you need to record an example
script and you will upload that here
okay so as a cover letter you really
want it to be short and sweet no one's
going to sit there and read three
paragraphs like that's just a waste of
their time they just want to know what
you can offer them so something as
simple as hello I am very interested in
producing voiceovers for your YouTube
channel I am a voiceover artist with an
energetic upbeat and cheerful voice
style of course you can change these
adjectives to whatever describes your
voice I can adapt my voice tone to your
needs actually you might want to put in
your gender here because sometimes they
are looking for a male voice over artist
or a female voice over artist and I can adapt my voice tone to your
needs I encourage you to listen to my
demo reel that I have attached below I'm
ready to get started immediately should
you choose to go with my voice style I
look forward to hearing from you warm
regards Jennifer or whatever your name
is and here you have a couple options
you can either link them to a YouTube
video where you've uploaded your demo
reel so they don't have to download
anything and just can stream it or you
can upload a project file here and so
you can upload it in wave or MP3 format
so they can listen now if you don't have
any demo reels you can record just a
sample of your voice and find any sample
scripts online just type in Sample
scripts for YouTube and record a couple
different samples in a couple different
styles and then upload them here and you
can use a free program called audacity
to record your voiceover so this is
audacity here this is a recording I have
done and I'm going to do a full tutorial
on audio editing but really the most
important thing to do is to remove the
background noise which you can do by
clicking here on the selection tool
dragging a sample where it's just background noise and then go effect
noise reduction get noise profile
then go select all to select the track
then effect noise reduction okay and
that's going to reduce this background
noise that we have let's say there's a
fan or a humming noise and see it it's
just cleaned up all the background noise
and then you're going to go through and
remove spaces remove any mistakes that
you made and you can do that by clicking
and dragging to highlight a section you
want to erase click backspace and that
deletes the section so again this
backspace let's say you want to silence
a part but not to erase it let's say
this here was a cough I can highlight it
and here I can go silence audio
selection and that makes it quiet so
just go through your voiceover and array
sections you don't want and then control
plus a effect amplify and you want this
to be around
-3 DB so it's not too loud okay
again this is super basic audio editing
we're doing right now but when I got
started this is all I did and I secured
many many jobs on upwork
when you're ready to export your
voiceover go file export and you can
export as MP3 or wave usually people
want it in wave format because it's
better quality but you can choose either
of these give it a name save
okay and that's going to export your
file and as a name you could put you
know Taylor Jones voice over demo for
example put your name and then voiceover
demo so then you're going to upload that
here and just scroll down you can ignore
the boost your proposal
and then send for two connects and that
means you're spending two connects if
you have the free version of upwork I
think you get 10 connects each month to
spend or you can upgrade to the pro
membership each month and then you get a
lot more connects and that's really just
that simple to apply to these jobs I did
this and in my first month of applying I
got two jobs I believe and then since
then it's just grown and grown and grown
you can see I have my freelancer profile
here I have a hundred percent success
rating I'm top rated and I've earned
over 89 000 US dollars
