We need a male voice over talent (Mid 30's to mid 40's in age) for an on hold recording. The sesion will hopefully take about 15 minutes. If we like you we might use you alot. We will even give you a copy of the finished piece as a demo if you'd like.

Location: Salt Lake City - Park City
Compensation: no pay


Wow, if they like me, they'll use me a lot! And for free! Wow, I can get lots and lots of unpaid work!

I answered their AD with an email. It wasn't pretty... but I don't care.
They say not to burn your bridges behind you, but there's nothing wrong with burning bridges that lead nowhere.
