Hello,

I am new on this board and new in California. I am a Dutch voice actor, recently moved from Seattle to San Francisco. A few years back I participated in the development of the EA soccer game UEFA2008, by lending my Dutch voice as the stadium announcer. Although I received tons of positive feedback, I never was given the opportunity to work for EA again; The sound-artist I worked with stopped working for EA, thus I fell off the companies 'radar'. Now I am trying to get back within EA here in San Francisco and Los Angeles. Please note that I can travel to LA on a very short notice, for an unlimited time.

I have been told by multiple sources that most likely EA is outsourcing the casting of voices to 3rd party casting agencies. Does anybody have an clue which agencies that might be ? And, do you know where I can find an agent, willing to represent a Dutch voice actor in California ?

You can read more about the beginning of my career in 'The News Tribune' (please see link below.) The article is somewhat outdated for I have been recording for Rosetta Stone, Citigroup bank, Voicebox and Exxon since then.

Thanks so much for your time.
Kind regards,
Olav.

Lots of game companies use Blindlight in Los Angeles.

I've also seen auditions for EA posted in Voice123.com, though not recently.
