Demo Intensive Programs
UPDATE: In January after starting his intensive: Tyler H got put on hold for his VERY FIRST commercial audition for 7-11! Elizabeth H booked her first voice over job on day 3 of her intensive! THAT'S how effective this training is! These are 2 new records - CAN YOU BEAT THEM? Let's make it happen together!!!
*ANOTHER UPDATE: It's been only 5 weeks since Mandy W. wrapped her Intensive - and she just booked her 2nd ever voice over job - this last one, she got to do a live recording with the clients all on the line who praised her work & said they'd be booking her for more upcoming work!!!
*A CRAZY UPDATE AND NEW RECORD: Jo-B Seb. Finished his Intensive March 23rd. On March 21st (Day 7 of his Intensive) He booked his first voice over job EVER! But get this: On March 24th, ONE DAY after finishing his intensive, he booked his second job - HE IS NOW THE BRAND NEW VOICE OF SHOPIFY!!!!!!!
*As for little ole me, I broke one of my own personal records, getting booked and recording 7 television & 3 radio spots in just one day. That's TEN COMMERCIALS in ONE DAY. It's... a VERY adventurous year so far. And I'm bringing all my students along for the ride. :)
At long last, the most popular voice over program in the country has now been upgraded into 2 different tiers to choose from, with lots of different features to consider, and now at 2 different price points.

(i.e., "I'd like to book a 14 Day Epic Commercial Intensive!")
-Ask what upcoming dates are available
(feel free to tell me the dates you're hoping for)
-Read below for the audio sample details I'll need from you to qualify
-Send your deposit to make it official
(SEE BELOW FOR INFO ON EVERYTHING!)
Keep In Mind:
*The Intensives are for Commercial, Animation & Narration (We don't combine training!)
*ALL of the intensive programs are available online to anyone, anywhere in the world.
*Your at home audio system must be approved before signing up for (or prior to) an intensive! (Please send me roughly 10 seconds speaking conversationally, roughly 10 seconds shouting, roughly 10 seconds whispering, all on ONE .MP3 file! You can say anything you want, I just need to hear your audio quality! DON'T WORRY: If you don't pass, I will help you until you do! If you want to get familiar with important recording quality information now, be sure to ask me for my recording tips & tricks link for intensive students on Dropbox.)
*If you don't have recording equipment yet, please see the Recommendations page.
*If you are so new that you hesitate even buying equipment - then DEF start with an award winning Career Counseling Session.
It's just one jam-packed hour! A lot of intensive students do! If you're ready to jump in & haven't yet had a career counseling session, each intensive STARTS with your career counseling session on day 1!
*All of the commercial AND animation materials we work on are completely original!
I am a published writer & commercial producer. My comedic writing won BEST IN SHOW at the Funniest Week In Chicago Comedy Festival in 2007. Been doing this a long time. ;) My head audio engineer comes from Nickelodeon Studios. We make the best commercials in the industry - I would know, I've sold 26 of them & put them on national radio! :)
*DO NOT TAKE TIME OFF WORK TO DO AN INTENSIVE:
Here's why: If you work any intensive in and around your most regular life, then AND ONLY THEN will you be able to succeed in the very real voice over market when your intensive is over. My most successful students to date are the ones that never took a day off work. My most UNsucessful students to date, are the ones that took off from work to take the intensive. Then when they returned TO work, they had to catch up, they had no idea where to squeeze voice over work into their life, and they completely lost their momentum. Help me help you! Please take the intensive while living your most normal life!
*Only the first day is hard-scheduled with me.
EVERY ADDITIONAL DAY IS DONE ON YOUR OWN TIME! This is a VERY flexible program that demands your mic-independence from DAY 1! Don't worry - We won't hang up the phone on day 1 until you know EXACTLY what you're doing! :)
*There are jam-packed surprises & LITERALLY life changing elements with each intensive NOT listed here, because of how many other VO coaches that are trying to replicate this, but will never be able to. (sorry guys!) xoxo
*You can reserve your intensive dates up to 5 weeks in advance!
You cannot register for the intensive via this website (because I MUST be able to schedule intensives accurately AND make sure your audio is produceable quality). Email me for deposit & payment details! Structured payment options are available, remember this is all tax-deductible, and - many places of employment (and schools) have been known to sponsor students - You just need to ask! So this program may be more accessible than you think. Also - Western Union allows you to pay via Credit Card and occasionally runs specials to cover credit card fees!

TAKE NOTE:
*These programs are NOT EASY. It will only truly be enjoyable if you are ready to work, learn, and take advantage of everything given to you.
*This program is an investment in your education and in the greater discovery of yourself as an artist. I cannot wait to help you unlock your instrument.
*There is usually a wait list for these intensives. Please sign up for the newsletter, or, send me a message to inquire about next available dates. I will get back with you as soon as I'm able.
*Graduates of intensives are highly encouraged to stay in touch. You will always have me as a mentor, advisor and a teammate. YOU ARE NOT ALONE. The NycVoCoach community is your new family, so let me know if you're looking to get adopted. I'm on it. Also - Intensives students are scooped up into the alumni program, which includes huge monster benefits!
*I've had students confess multiple times they would have paid three times the price of this intensive had they known what it would do for them. Please scour the internet for hundreds and hundreds of reviews.
*SUCCESS! One of my favorite 10 Day Intensive Success stories of all time was is from last year with Sean G. He finished his intensive in January with a very clear plan of what to do next. He had no agents or reps, so we set him up for how to do this on his own. As of the last week of March, he wrote me to tell me he followed our plan, and in his seeking representation from an out of state agency, he included his incredible voice over demo. They didn't write him back (this happens all the time). But a week later they called his cell phone to tell him they had kept his (AMAZING DEMO REEL) and had begun submitting it. In less than a week, (and this was why they were calling him) he booked a national commercial for Nissan. He never auditioned for the commercial - he booked with with the Commercial Demo I made for him. These are the demos I make, I call them "Working Demos" or "Booking Demos", because if your Commercial Demo does it's job - it's booking work for you. Sean is now the voice of Nissan, and, he is greatly enjoying his relationship with his brand new agency. They signed him immediately.
Again - PLEASE search the Reviews Page, or, all the latest Google Reviews to read about experiences people had, and how frequently they're booking now!
