How can I protect myself? How can I protect my audio?

Voice Actors have a growing list of concerns when it comes to trying to protect themselves, their work and their voice. So in today's day and age is it necessary or prudent to watermark auditions you're submitting on casting sites or to clients?

In this Summer Series Episode, I answer a commonly asked question about voice over rate cards... and whether or not you need one.

Recently I learned a valuable lesson about the importance of listening to your body and your brain. About not only paying attention to the signals they're sending you, but also being willing to do something about it.
