Are you stuck in a rut on the path to VO success? Inundated with too much information? The road to an acting career is awash with advice, conventional wisdom, and lists of do's and don'ts. Blogging, tweeting, profile sites, agents, mailings, demos, branding, classes, and on and on and on.

But what about unconventional wisdom? Are you finding that the "normal" path doesn't resonate with you? What are the "don’ts" for others that might be "do's" for you?

This presentation illuminates the off-road path of one voice actor, and demonstrates how, sometimes, taking an alternate road can lead to greater success in the long run.

Come hear how Joe J Thomas got an agent, union card, roles, and a thriving VO career through less-than-standard mean. Who knows? You may find your own unique way through the wilderness to reach your own personal VO goals!


About Joe:

Joe J Thomas comes from an unusual combination of "Programmer by Day/Actor by Night." After nearly 30 years of leading this strange double life, he decided to launch his full-time career in Voice Acting.

Drawing on years of Theater and Improv Comedy performance, Joe specializes in Accents, Characters, Impressions, Voice Matching and ADR for Video Games, Cartoons, Commerciaals, Movies and Corporate productions.

Voicing characters from the iconic (Lex Luthor, Professor X, Sean Connery) to the bizarre (Yodeling Pickles, Camels, Lobsters), Joe has found a perfect way to express his inner oddness (er... oddity? odditude?).

If you're willing to take a step outside your comfort zone, you may find some of Joe's ideas will work wonders for your career.
