VO-BB - 20 YEARS OLD!

Philip Banks

We've had "In a World" which was sh*te and everybody pretended it wasn't because we're all VO people so why not have "You're demo ready!"

The movie is about a girl who is trying hard to find her way in life when she meets a washed up old man, not drunk he was washed up on a beach.

"Hey, it's time for you to wake up" she says. He opens his eyes.

"Kid" he says "Say that again only smile while narrowing your eyes".

YES ..with his help this former cheerleader could be the next great Voice Talent!

Now, we need some conflict so we introduce some useless F*ckwits from NYC who offer her an award for a small admin fee and membership of their association. There are the Ukrainian web site owners who kidnap her kitten (Alan) because she refuses to audition topless for an IVR paying $36 and the Canadians who play on her doughnut addiction.

Then one day after a lot of hard work the washed up old man says ...

"Kid, you're demo ready!"

This has legs! Crowdfunding?

could we include a love interest? a feckless, but lovable parking valet at ASCAP world HQ who is an inadvertent & unknowing master of the iranian double-pause?

Yes, yes, yes!

Coach - "Kid you are completely without feck? What would an ex-cheerleader like Butler see in you?"

Deacon - "Sir, I only have one thing to offer my tips and ..........my heart"

Coach - "Where in HECK did you learn to do that?"

Deacon - "British guy from Scotland, England near Paris France, Sir. It's called the Irani ...."

Coach - "I know kid........ I know. Me n him once had a future way back when neither of us had a past to look forward to!"

Hah, funny you say this..I'm sure there is an actual fictional movie about voiceover.

Time to go to IMDB and investigate..

Would the actual movie be fictional or the actual voice over? Or in a sense would it be a sort of concept?

My movie about an actual fictional voice over coach would contain elements of all the invalueless information I have gained from people who have been coached by a coach.

If it a contains complete list of useless information, which we don't need to hear and cannot understand; does that mean it will be a short movie?

No, sorry about that. Running time around 128 mins and at the speed I run that will make me about 12 miles from the nearest cinema which is a good thing.

That is close enough.

Okay I'm all for the movie (though I think a Reality Show would be better)

But.....which one us gets to do the MOVIE TRAILER for it? cool

And then we have to decide what mic to use!! Ninja

You are evil Rob! Wizard

The VO must be done by a newbie to show how coaching could really help (not).

But it needs a happy ending. They should find a redheaded tough-love coach who fixes it all. Smile
