Auditions are the lifeblood of any voice actor. They are the main way we compete and win work in our business. 

Assuming you’re properly trained and competitive, the more auditions you do, the more work you will ultimately book. That’s a great thing. 

But what about bad work? Work that is exploitative, unfair, or downright dishonest? How do you avoid those jobs? 

The best way to avoid bad work is to not audition for bad work. 

Today, I’m going to walk you through 7 common audition red flags in voice over. This list is not exhaustive and not complete because the industry is changing all the time, but it is meant to make you aware of the more common voice over audition red flags so that you can avoid them and the bad jobs they lead to.
