I've always wanted to try my hand at some VO work and have done a couple little things for clients that were too cheap to spring for real VO talent. Here's one video I did a couple years ago: http://remitpro.com/check21solutions.htm While my experience performing VO's is limited, I've actually hired quite a few voice actors for commercials and paid the good ones well. The really good (and really expensive) ones are great to work with because they take creative direction well--they understand what feel we're looking for quickly and can get a keeper within the first two or three reads. The more affordable local talent often skews waaay too far into cheeseball, over-inflected announcer speak. We can usually get what we need in the end, but it takes a lot more direction. We recently hired this guy and he was loving fantastic to work with: http://www.studiocenter.com/voice-over-talent/larry-davis.aspx We wanted a sort of grizzled Sam Elliott sound with a subtle drawl and he nailed it on the second take.
