Though "Voice-Over" is often overlooked by film and video producers
as an important part of the production process, a voice-over track
can make or break a video presentation. Done well, it can make an
inexpensive production look and sound amazing. A bad voice-over
track can compromise even the best video production.

There are techniques that a producer can use to make sure that the
"VO" track works, and works well. The purpose of "The VO Workshop"
seminar is to give producers important insight about the entire
voice-over process. Join Don Elliot and learn to produce accurate,
effective, and powerful voice-overs.

About Don: After a successful career at LA's KIIS radio, Don founded
Elliot Creative Services. . He’s a national voice-over talent on
