How Voice Actors Can Profit from YouTube Dubbing with Rafael Neve

1 hour 9 minutes

Every so often I have a conversation with a voice actor who introduces me to genre of voice over I had never really considered before. That happened with Rafael Neve when he reached out with an idea for the podcast.

Rafael has built a thriving, full-time income to support himself and his family from YouTube Dubbing. He even hired his mother to work with him he's so busy!

In this in-depth conversation, Rafael pulls back the curtain on all the potential Youtube Dubbing offers. He holds nothing back with advice for differentiating yourself from other talent in the space, how to find the work, who to collaborate with and so much more.

This episode is particularly impactful if you're a bilingual talent, but as Rafael points out, there are opportunities for anyone who is willing to go look for them.
