Private Voice Over Training

WORK WITH COACHES WHO SPECIALIZE IN YOUR GENRES

While we offer a variety of important workshops, seminars and classes here at Edge, working one on one with a professional voiceover coach is often the best way to hone your delivery and fine tune your individual voice.

Far from our studios? No problem: Every one of our coaches regularly coaches by telephone. Seem odd? This is an industry about hearing... no one has to see you. In fact, over 50% of professional voice over jobs are directed by clients via telephone, so tele-training is a necessary skill to acquire.

We are here to make sure you receive the attention you require to perfect your reads by pairing you with a coach or coaches specialized in your voiceover genre and specifically picked with your needs and personality in mind.

Available in-studio and via tele-training. These sessions can be recorded for you.

Thanks, David!! You have helped me so much, and given me a lot of confidence by being so supportive of my efforts and abilities. Especially considering that I'm such a doubting Thomas--but I think I'm much less so, thanks to you. And that comes across in the reads and during work sessions. Thanks again

Colleen

Hi Kerry, Thank you for your expert coaching Monday. Your advice helped me tremendously, as did your patience and encouragement, while I learned to practice the tricks of the trade. Please feel free to use that as a testimonial! : ) Thank you, too, for the emailed information. Take care,

Robin Swenholt

David: For the past several weeks I have been working with one of your terrific coaches, Judy. She is absolutely awesome! In our most recent session she believes I require one perhaps two more sessions prior to going to the studio to produce my demo. You all at Voice Edge have been so helpful and professional and I believe your efforts and professionalism can assist me in reaching my goals. Should you and I speak for a few moments prior to making the appointment for the production or...

Hi Cathy, Wow, was Jay Snyder an awesome teacher. He answered all my questions, was incredibly personable and knowledgeable, and adapted the coaching session practically by-the-minute.

- Kendra

Hi David, First, like you, Mike was superb! He poured his passion for the industry into the session. I liked that. And I really appreciated his coaxing and encouragement. Between the two of you I feel that I have been in "good hands" throughout the entire project and look forward to a future session. Thanks again to you and Mike for all your help!

Jerry

Hi David, Thank you so much for the great coaching session last night. The hour went so fast! My confidence level went way up because of the encouragement you gave me. I recorded the session, and I am sure I will be referring to it in the future. Thanks again,

Sue

I just wanted to let you know I was at the studio today and I couldn't have been more pleased. I guess things happen for a reason, but in the case it couldn't have worked out better for me. Just thought a bright note might help, during this time. Have a great weekend.

Mark

I just did my phase 2 evaluation. I felt very at ease. My coach was exceptionally nice, made me feel very comfortable, and gave constructive criticism and advice on what forms of voice over would best suit my voice. I got the direction and clarification out of the session that I was hoping for. I just wanted to again thank Keri and the entire staff at Edge studio for an honest, informative and straightforward evaluation of me as a voiceover talent. Thankfully, my training session was all that I...

Carlos

Dear David, Just a couple lines to thank you for a great meeting this morning at your studio. I can tell your insights will be helpful and look forward to our next consultation. Will get those outline notes to you no later than next Friday. Again, many thanks for your interest, expertise and enthusiasm. Best wishes

Tony

David, I had an enormously great time making the 6th Ave commercials. I just wanted to let you know that I couldn't have done it without you. You took me from sounding like a novice to sounding professional. I want to thank you for being such a good coach, teacher and director, and for believing in me to give me this opportunity. I look forward to working with you again.

Joe D.

Thank you SO much! I really enjoyed Kristin

I want to thank you for an most enjoyable session, my coach Tom was excellent, and as nervous as I was he totally made me feel comfortable. I look forward to more sessions with him and will call to schedule an appointment soon. Thanks!

JoAnn Ross

WAS OVER THE TOP FABULOUS! Hi Jean, Had to get that out. I learned a lot. Eric is an excellent teacher, and patient. He waited until I understood getting "engaged." Need practice. Thanks for your help.

Phyllis LeMonier

Jean: I finished my demo recording this past Tuesday. I worked with David and Tom and they were both great. I had my last training session with David. In the first 15 minutes of that session I got to a level that I could not achieve, even after two one-hour sessions with another school. I am so thankful for fate and the opportunity to work with David. He is talented, professional and he knew exactly what was holding me back. I am excited about the possibilities.

Ruth Wuchter

Hi Eric: Let me thank you for the work you have done with me during our sessions thus far. I am getting so much out of them, and enjoying every minute of it! Looking forward to seeing you on Wednesday evening! Thanks again,

Nancy

David, Thanks for your insight and advice this morning. Our conversation was very helpful. I will be implementing your suggestions regarding my demo ASAP. I will contact your office later this week to schedule an appointment to discuss the construction of a home studio. Thanks again for your valuable input!

Gary

Hi Paul. Well, the vo went very well with Fortunoff. They loved my work! I just can't thank you enough for your invaluable training and guidance. Whatever you are doing, it is working. I'm getting better all the time. It took about four hours and the price was right! I loved every minute of being in the studio. The Creative Director of the ad agency found me on voice123.com and contacted me directly. He said he listened to 80 demos and loved mine. He said he loved how I was "so New...

Hi David, Its time to switch my compliments. I've just finished my 3rd private session with Tom & wanted to let you know how terrific he was with me. He brings patience and constructive criticism, working with me on the pieces until I get a thorough understanding of delivery. He also sets the stage for the demo, advising what types of pieces he would like to see on them. Just the kind of experience I am coming to expect from your studio. My next session is with Judy & I am looking forward to...

Sharon

David, Thank you for the terrific voice over class. It was not only informative but very entertaining as well. I resigned from a long time broadcast career a few years ago. Recently, I've been looking to get back to work. You gave me the answers I needed and I'm very excited to start my new voice over career! A big thanks to David and Edge Studio!

Michele Donofrio Harding

David - you have a calming personal style that makes it easy to take direction and receive criticism!

Tina Frey - New York, NY - June, 2000

Dear Kerry: Just a quick note to say thank you for the engaging and informative voice class today. We all learned a lot and thought you did a great job! Best wishes,

Jim Jim Keeley Howard Hughes Medical Institute

Dear David, Thanks very much for your help and encouragement...and guiding me in the right steps for my voice-over experiences. From the first time at the studio, you made me and the class feel right at home

John P.

You and the folks at Edge Studio are lifesavers to us VO talent. I'm so glad you're there! All the best,

Annette

Outstanding voice-over coach Judy Kameny, the entire Edge Studio organization is quite simply first-class.

Gina K.

Hi David, I just wanted to let you know what a fantastic coaching session I had with Randye last Friday. Although I had originally booked the hour as coaching/recording for a demo update.... we actually focused on picking the right genre for me and worked on that type of copy. Randye even gracioiusly reviewed my Narration and Commercial demos that I sent to her prior to the session. It was so beneficial to hear her constructive review of what I have already, what I could work on and what...

Michele

Wow David! You were so professional and easy to work with! I can't wait to work with you again! No wonder you train people! You're the best! You could squeeze ANY read out of me! woohoo! a very very impressed

Joan F

David, Thanks for all your time and input during our evaluation training placement. I learned much and took many notes for future reference. I am glad I read the manual ahead of time. You are very thorough and I am looking forward to my evaluation on Tuesday. Sincerely,

Carolyn E Durham, NC

Kerry, I really enjoyed meeting you the other day. Although I was suffering with a cold and sinusitis, you really took the time to listen to my voice through all the nasal congestion that I had that day. You have a great ear to be able to hear anything positive about my session (unless you are trying to use me for a cold medicine commercial). You gave great advice and really narrowed down the things I should work on to improve my marketability. Thank you so much and I hope we work together...

Shannon Taitt

Dave, Thanks for all of your help and support so far, it means a lot to me. Judy, by the way, was fantastic. I couldn't have gotten a better teacher.

Kevin

Dear David, Thank you so much for your continued encouragement. It is greatly appreciated. I thoroughly enjoyed working with you on Wednesday. David, you are not only knowledgeable about your work, you have a knack for making someone feel completely at ease, you are professional, courteous and pleasant to work with and totally appreciated by me - as I also informed Jean yesterday.

Hi Kerry, Hope you are well!! Just wanted to say thank you so much for last night's workshop on Voice Over. It was incredible informative and extremely helpful. I have taken one other workshop at a NYC studio with a different group and yours by far exceeded it. I am really looking forward to my one on one evaluation and hopefully moving forward with Edge Studio in creating a really great demo I can be proud. I hope our paths cross again!! Best wishes,

Hi David, First off, I'd like to thank you for your time on Monday. I was very impressed with the session and you were absolutely right about learning a lot in that short period of time! I found all your feedback very helpful and useful. I'm looking forward to working with Edge Studio again to help prepare me for my demo and ultimately my voice-over career! Thanks again, p.s. You were correct, NOBODY recognized me on the CD!

Walter J.

Hi, David. I promised you feedback as I was running out the door last Wednesday, so here goes: Kristin was fantastic. You already know this because she works with you. There are many reasons why this class worked so well. Kristin has a very congenial and warm personality. I can imagine that not every voice over artist is as likable as Kristin. In addition, she inspires and gets the students excited about the work. I also really liked this class because we each had booth time. I took...

Suzanne Obolsky

David's skills are outstanding! His coaching skills helped immensely in improving my interpretation of a script, as well as in the ultimate delivery. What I liked most was that we never rushed through a script, and didn't move on until we got it right. I highly recommend him if you're looking to learn the ropes of doing voice-overs, or if you're just looking to fine tune your skills.

David Beaman - Lauderhill, FL

I had my last training session with David. In the first 15 minutes of that session I got to a level that I could not achieve, even after two one-hour sessions with another school. I am so thankful for fate and the opportunity to work with David. He is talented, professional and he knew exactly what was holding me back. I am excited about the possibilities.

Ruth Wuchter

I just had to let you know that I had a great read for an agent tonight by applying what I learned in today's session. The agent, brought her own copy for us to read. It was for a bank and the first line read "I loved my bank". To practice reading it three different ways, I asked myself three questions: 1. How do I feel about triple scoop hot fudge sundaes 2. How do I feel about a really good friend (I picked a specific one) 3. How do I feel about someone I have a crush on (a specific...

Tami

Hi David: Thank you for your email. I just completed my second training session this past Thursday, and it was a blast. There's something about pursuing a long-awaited interest. I so enjoy being in front of a mike in a sound booth hearing my own voice. I don't want to sound vain, but I shouldn't have waited so long to do this. I LOVE IT! Mike is very encouraging and lots of fun during our sessions. I just hope I am progressing as I should.

Joann (Jae)

[I had my first job!] I can honest say I felt confident and understood exactly what the producer asked for. The work we did, your critical ear and preciseness made me very comfortable with the whole audition. Thanks. I'll let you know about Tuesday too

Dave Dettore

Just want to pass thanks along to Kristin before I forget. She's a fabulous teacher, but I guess everyone knows that. Wish I had the money to just work with her for about a year! It's one thing for someone to point out what needs correcting, but another when they can help you find the way to make the change. Kristin always has a marvelous technique for showing me how to get to the bottom of the challenge and correct it. And, she's also very good at helping you not feel terrible about the...

Sandra

There is NO BETTER voice over coach than Danielle Quisenberrry. I especially appreciate the way she shares her knowledge and experience in a way that makes you feel comfortable. She communicates with you in a way that's easily understood. If you want to get into the voice over arena, you need Danielle.

Jim

Hi Morgan, Part one was very informative. Kerry is obviously experienced and her instruction and feedback was informative and patient. While I think some of us had some previous voice over experience and others had none, she was very good with the range of talent that were in the class, bringing out improvements in a short period of time. Thanks,

Derek

With his straightforward and honest approach, David is an effective instructor for group workshops as well as individual coaching, and can easily pinpoint one's voiceover strengths and weaknesses. He's an amazing sound engineer too - you can certainly trust your demo production to him!

Karen H.

Randye, I just want to let you know what a privilege it has been to be under your tutelage these past few months. You have not only taught me so much about the industry but you have instilled confidence in me which is so critical for me in moving forward with my career since I've always been a little timid about my vocal abilities. You've also made the learning process a lot of fun! I felt a real connection with you and would definitely encourage anyone looking to get into this industry to...

Lynne

Dear Bruce Thanks for such a great session the other day. I felt very good leaving the studio -- much more confident as we work towards demo.

Andree

Elissa I did just what your friend wants to do! I took a $ 25 class at the local high school on "How to get into voice work". Luckily the instructor was a professional from New York, who organized workshops and recording sessions with David Goldberg of Edge Studio (also in New York). David came here and conducted a three hour workshop and did our recordings for demos. We were given honest evaluations about whether we should go for commercial work or narration work or both (or none!). ...

Pamela

I just wanted to again thank Keri and the entire staff at Edge studio for an honest, informative and straightforward evaluation of me as a voiceover talent. Thankfully, my training session was all that I expected and then some. I truly appreciate the much needed advice that you have provided me in my efforts to pursue voiceover work in the future. I sincerely look forward to working with you again very soon.

Carlos

David is the guy you want if you want an honest appraisal of your abilities, practical help in improving your skills and the real deal on this business.

Reginald Metcalf

Thanks, Danielle! You're an awesome teacher. Until next time... Best,

Jon

Jim

I feel very fortunate to have found Edge Studio. David and Mike are very knowledgeable, patient, and supportive teachers, and they deliver their instruction in a friendly, relaxed atmosphere. They allow students to learn and progress at a comfortable pace and always strive to have them do their best. I would recommend Edge Studio highly to anyone. I can't think of anyplace else where I would have wanted to be trained...or any other studio where I'd want to continue my training.
