*
*
*"Jean's workshop was just what I needed! Her insight into what a voice over
demo should consist of was specific and right on target. With her how to, I
was able to produce a tape and secure an agent.  Thank you Jean!"*  *Cathy
Lynn Yonek   *

 *"I LOVED this seminar! I never realized how much was involved in the
process of the Voice Over Business, let alone what there is to learn about
actually doing the work! Jean provided every detail and answered every
question with handouts to support what we were learning. I was even more
impressed with the extra material she emailed us the next day. She cares
about this business and it shows."
*

*"Thanks Jean. I learned more than I ever expected! Now I just have to
actually learn VO skills and I'll have all the tools I need."*

*"Jean was a blast and so generous with her knowledge. It was an added
pleasure to meet Donna Belajac and get her take from the Casting
Agent...OOPS...I mean Casting Director side! There is a difference and now I
know it."*

*"This seminar really got me excited about taking Jean's class. Her passion,
knowledge and encouragement when I went to the mic, gave me the confidence
that I could actually do this...be a Voice Over actor and business owner.
Scary but exciting!"*
