How often should you record a voiceover demo?

When should you record a new voiceover demo? Do you really need to do it every year

? How often is too often? How often is not often enough? Your voice over demo is what gets hired and is your advertisement for yourself. So it's important to get it right. But no need to overdo it. Here are 3 simple rules for knowing when it's time to re-record your voiceover demo: 1. If you are inexperienced: If youre on your first or second voice over demo still, a rule of thumb is to wait until youve done a few gigs, say 4 - 10. That extra experience will help, because with voiceovers, there is a very steep learning curve in the beginning. Your next demo will already be much smoother and your skills will be improved even after such a short time. After a few rounds in studio, it will be like you're a different voiceover. More confident, better and basically, really starting to find your own style.

2. if you are experienced: Once youve had a certain amount of experience, the learning curve isnt as steep anymore. Now you just have to make sure your demo is acting your age. You dont need to waste your money re-doing your demo every year. You can refresh your existing demo every 2 years or so (simple editing - adding in new bits of work youve done, and taking out some of the older stuff that dates your demo). And then, re-record and make a new demo every 4 years roughly. Too often you hear UK voiceovers sounding really young on their demo, and then when you get them in studio, they sound nothing like they do on their demo.

3. when your demo is letting you down If you did a demo you were never really happy with, plus, youre not getting booked for gigs - its time.
