what are the top casting sites or payto playay sites that you should be on in 2024 for voiceover [Music] success hi I’m Jesse Carroll professional voice actor and coach and today we’re talking about casting sites now 2023 has been a crazy year one of the biggest players in the game voices.com has made some crazy moves well they’ve made some crazy moves in the last year and a half uh but more recently they’ve had some internal shifts as well in changing leadership and we’ll talk about that in a minute but in 2024 what’s what’s the landscape going to look like what’s the future of pay to play What’s the future of casting sites are they still worth it can you still make money on them that’s what we’re talking about today now before we get into that I just want to take a second and thank everybody that subscribed to my channel last video that I put out that was like this was about a month ago and I think I had like 104 subscribers at that time and right now I got like 176 so we’re moving things along we’re we’re getting there slowly but surely we are Trucking along so if you like this channel if you like my stuff please consider subscribing and sharing this with somebody you know that might get some value from it and uh we’ll see if we can get to 200 by the next time I make a video and I promise guys I will start making them more consistently um I’ve been getting a lot of great feedback lately so thank you for that I really appreciate the comments and uh it keeps me going it helps me move along sometimes it feels when you’re making these things especially when you’re new channel and you’re starting out feels like you’re just yelling into the black void staring into a camera lens so so I love it when I get comments on the videos and you guys tell me that you’re getting value out of this and I appreciate comments when you’re saying listen I don’t agree with you too so you don’t have to agree with me and if you don’t I want to know in the comments why I’m looking to learn too so what you should do is be listening to what I say trying it out for yourself if it doesn’t work for you let me know maybe I’ll make an adjustment maybe I’ll change too so today we are talking about casting sites which ones are good which ones are bad more importantly which ones should you be on in 2024 so before we get into this I want to Define casting site okay I’m not going to be talking about upwork or Fiverr now I know there’s a lot of people that make a lot of money on there I don’t when I started doing voiceover I was on fivr and I did make a lot of money on there and then it just I just stopped paying attention to it cuz I make way more money on casting sites than I do on gig sites which five are an upwork R those are gig sites so we’re not talking about those at all a casting site will be defined as a site that you are on where they have auditions that are coming from a client or an agency where you are auditioning and they’re picking a voice actor they’re casting a voice actor that they want for their projects casting cite so let’s get into it oh and at the end I’m going to do an honorable mention which is a it that I’ve heard that people get work on I’ve not been on there yet so I will mention it maybe it’ll work for you but I’ve not been on it so I don’t have an opinion so at the very very bottom one that I’m only putting on the list because I know people get work on there and I have tried to get work on there and I’ve not got work on there but maybe you will maybe you’ll give it a shot uh is Bago it’s got an incredible user interface I really like the way it’s set up and they do have legit jobs show up on the site they have good ones um I’ve not booked any work on there I’ve tried a few times I gave it a good solid go and did audition for about a month and that’s usually for me where I drop off if if I’m not booking consistently within a month I’m done cuz I do all the auditions I don’t just kind of do a couple auditions a day like every single audition that’s right for me that shows up I will do it and I’ve not been able to book on there um it’s a site that exists out of Germany I’ve heard that the owner uh his name is Armen I heard he’s a really great guy good guy to have a beer with um beers don’t pay the bills unfortunately so for me that one is a nogo but I’m putting on this list that it’s a possible one for you because it’s cheap they do have real jobs and you might have success and I know not everybody that watches this channel is from North America some of you are in Europe or other places as well and they have jobs on there that are for people that are from Europe that are from Germany that are from UK that have accents from Spain Italy uh France things like that so if you’re watching and you’re looking for uh a casting site that’s based out of Europe that could be one that you might find success on so for me I’m not on there anymore I’ve tried it a few times put that one at the bottom number five is that number four this is number three B Planet this one to me I think it’s been out for a little while but it’s newer to me and I’ve been on there for under a year but I’ve gotten work from there um they don’t have a lot of jobs but they’ve got good quality jobs when they do come in there’s been a couple jobs that I’m like I don’t know about but they got rid of them right away so they have really good customer service and that is V Planet uh I really like that site I hope it does well in the future right now it’s really new and they don’t have a whole lot of jobs like I said the user interface is great they do need to come up with a filtering system cuz right now the way it exists is when you sign up you get jobs for males and females so you have to really look to see which ones are right for you but other than that yeah I can’t complain the site’s been decent I’ve got it I’ve definitely got my membership worth from it beyond my membership worth so so yeah I really hope they do really good in the new year and uh that one is going to be number three to me so now we’re at the top two here this is going to be a short video so this is a short video cuz it’s really there’s really only two sites that you need to be on I was actually going to make this video uh a week ago and I’m glad that I did didn’t because something significant has changed um the ranking of the sites that I’m about to give you for one and two that hasn’t changed at all but one of those sites is like it’s it’s making a a comeback is the only way to explain it so at number two I’m putting voices.com now if you would have asked me year and a half ago I would have put voices.com number one now before everyone’s like what whoa cuz you know they’ve got a pretty negative reputation that they’ve made for themselves over the past year and a half or longer depending on who you ask um for me though I ranked the sites according to how much money you can make on these sites cuz that’s that’s what I’m onc casting sites for to make money and get new clients now on voices.com your clients have to stay on this site you know you can’t take them off site so that’s a big negative for me but the money that I was making on voices.com about a year and a half ago no other site could touch it and that all got abruptly changed because they made a drastic decision to eliminate a program that they had called the Platinum program where a select group of voice actors paid paid and inflated membership ship price I think it was about $33,000 or $3500 a year but with that you would get all of the auditions in your category so if you’re male instead of getting uh before Platinum I was getting like 20 to 30 auditions a day when I sign it for platinum I was getting like a 100 so you can understand if you’re doing a high volume of auditions you’re going to get a lot of work and I was when I was doing Platinum along with every other Platinum actor and they a year and a half ago sent out an email saying that there were changing the algorithm or whatever and and they just stopped like everybody went from had having like everybody that was in Platinum went from like having 80 auditions a day to having like 10 and it was a storm people that like were on voices.com that had that as their primary job couldn’t feed their family and voices.com they were apologetic sort of about it and it took them a few weeks to get back on track and they gave us about half the auditions back that we were getting before so they took our membership price that we paid the full price and then they just half the auditions which was a really dirty move I didn’t agree with that at all you know what I mean like it’s like you’re paying full price you’re you’re going to Subway the sandwich the sandwich place you go to Subway and you pay for a foot long and then they give you half of it and like sorry we just changed our policy on you not cool at all and that continued until they decided to get rid of the Platinum program completely and and just make everybody on the premium program and then they introduced something for their top talent the people that were in the Platinum program called the top talent which you were supposed to get more auditions and better quality auditions if you book a lot on the site and you have a certain amount of reviews yada y y I forget all the criteria but if you’re a professional actor on the site shouldn’t be a problem being considered top talent to get in that category however over the last little while they just kept dwindling it down and dwindling down the amount of auditions you get until we were at like I don’t know I think I was getting at the lowest point between 10 and 15 which is the lowest I’ve ever had even when I was just a regular member before platinum and I would send emails like on a weekly basis because they were destroying their platform and it was just a dumpster fire as many other vo coaches and online voiceover personalities have called voice one 123 in the past this was a dumpster F and it was a sh show and then about a month ago uh maybe a little bit longer they made a huge internal move and David cicarelli who was the founder and CEO of voices.com he stepped down walked away no explanation there’s been a lot of speculation about why some people thought he may have been fired I don’t know I’ll tell you this I’ve met David I’ve gone for dinner with him with a bunch of other voice actors here in New York and I like him I like David he’s a Charming individual he’s a cool guy I I I like talking to him and I wish him all the best however that being said over the last year and a half under his command that place just oh my God it was just going down in flames um for voice actors anyway I don’t I don’t understand the moves internally or how it could have helped them maybe they had some kind of agenda or why they were uh choking everybody’s auditions out to spread them around I don’t know doesn’t make sense to me but anyway about a week ago it it seems that all of my letters all of the uh why don’t you guys release more auditions can you see her destroying your platform there people that are CL see when here’s the thing here’s my argument when they’re limiting everybody’s auditions and you don’t get to get all the additions in your category they’re not sending them to you that means clients that are posting jobs on voices.com the top talent aren’t getting to see those auditions so the clients aren’t getting a premium list of people auditioning for their jobs but those clients are posting those jobs on other sites where the top talent on those sites do have access to those jobs so from what I was seeing as I was tracking it there was a large number of jobs on voices.com that were not getting completed because they’re probably getting completed on voice 123 where top talent do have access to all of the auditions anyway that being said it seems like a week ago they just opened up the floodgates they have a new CEO in place and I’ve tried emailing them a few times through the channels invoice.com my emails have not been returned but they did exactly what I was asking for everybody that’s a top talent that I’ve spoken with they are getting at least three times as many auditions as they were getting two weeks ago some some days more and it doesn’t seem to be letting up I hope that they continue on this track because not only will that be better for their platform will be better for talent too more auditions to better voice actors means more jobs completed on voices.com everybody makes more money so if they keep going down this path yes they will continue to be one of the top platforms and maybe even retake the number one spot and by the way with all of the problems that vo of.com has gone through in the past year and a half the one thing I will say is I really do believe that voices.com is the best platform for brand new voice actors to start on because you can audition for all the jobs and not be penalized for it um you can get your practice and your daily reps in that way you don’t have to invoice clients everything is completed on the platform so if you’re looking to get your dip your toes into the water of the pay to play World I think I think voices.com is a really good place to start um it’s very forgiving so if you’re new at voice acting and you’re looking to get in pay to playay voice.com premium membership is cheap um and you’ll get professional auditions right away can’t beat it but my number one spot for 2024 is going to go to my favorite platform voice1 123 there are a variety of reasons that I I think voice 123 is the best platform I don’t think it’s the best place to start but again don’t listen to me if you don’t want to if you’ve got the money and you want to go right to the top get to voice1 123 but I always say if you’re going to go to voice123 right away make sure you have really good demos or even professional demos if you’re going to get on that one because you’re against the best of the best or have a bunch of jobs completed and have the mp3s from those jobs that you can actually put up as demos see the thing that I love about voice 123 is when you book a job on there you actually get to keep that client you Converse off the platform and that can be a client for years and I’ve built up most of my client list from voice 123 so people that come back to me for jobs that I don’t even have to audition for those are usually people that found me on voice 123 or audition for something now they just keep using me that’s one of the advantages of being on that platform also visibility here’s the thing when you get on voice 123 and this is why I always encourage new voice actors to get some experience before they get on there is that you get visibility but they have different membership tiers and the lowest membership tier that I always recommend that people buy into is the 888 level higher if you can afford it so the top tiers would be like 888 I think the next one is 2500 and then the Platinum level that I am on which is 5,000 to you but it’s totally worth it cuz you get high visibility um people message you and offer you jobs instead of just auditioning for them they find you it’s just easy way to Market you just got to fill out your profile properly and get as many demos as you can have up there I have like 60 there’s an unlimited amount you can just keep putting them up the more demos you have up the more chances a client has of finding you that’s what I recommend about voice1 123 is it a perfect platform no not by any means the thing about it that can be challenging is that they have a system where they they grade you on how many likes you get for how many auditions you do like a percentage so if you’re auditioning for everything on voice 123 and you’re not getting your your proposals liked they’re not giving it a thumbs up you can end up in the bottom 40% is what they call it and that’s that’s the basement and if you’re in there what happens is you don’t get as many auditions sent to you and they send them to you later so by the time they they do get to you there’s already like 40 50 people that have auditioned for a job where they may have only wanted 30 auditions so that’s why I say buying at the higher level so you get your job sooner get more access to more auditions get higher visibility and you can pick through those auditions and figure out which ones that are most likely to cast you and haven’t had a lot of people audition yet because you can see how many people audition so you can you can game it a bit I I teach a whole course on this thing um and uh if you really want to get into voice 123 and the mechanics of how it specifically works there’s a couple of amazing voice actors out there that have a website called the voice123 pros just Google voice123 Pros or b123 pros and uh they got a great course on exactly specifically how voice 123 works and it’s not expensive either I took it it’s great so if you want to know about specifically voice123 that’s who you go talk to and they’ll sort you out just for me though all around voice123 can’t beat it high level of auditions that you can get quality jobs good visibility you can keep the clients and work with them off the platform great customer service can’t be beat so I mean if voices.com wants to regain that spot they got some work to do but for me I love working on voice 123 it’s expensive but look at it this way if you were going to open up a store a clothing store on a busy Street in downtown Manhattan do you think that you would pay more for the rent of that store because you’re in a busy street where you’re more likely to get sales of course you would so paying these high prices for memberships it’s it’s not a thing to me understand how it works some people are like no I would never pay that well do you want to be sending off emails direct emails all day I don’t I’d rather audition for a job that I know that they need a voice actor for that’s going to get filled that day so those are my tops for 2024 and one thing I want to touch on is I I know there’s been a lot of talk about how casting sites are dead and you can’t make a living on there anymore and that’s total it’s not true is it challenging yeah anything worth doing is challenging but you can do it now here’s another thing there’s this myth out there that you have to train for a year before you are worthy of booking a job which is another statement it’s not true okay let let me illustrate why this is not true number one I was I started booking work three months into doing voiceover and I had never even taken a voiceover class and I was making like over $5,000 a month I was making more than people had done it for like a decade consistently how do you explain that also my student Ross he just beat me for a job on voice 123 he set up his profile the way I told him to do it it was his fourth audition on the platform they shortlisted me and they shortlisted him and he beat me you can not everybody in voice over when they start is going to be at the same level he has only ever studied with me and he’s taken two classes two oneon-one classes and he did my online course and he beat me for a job you see a good coach isn’t going to tell you what you can’t do a good coach is going to make things seem possible everybody everybody’s path is different there is no cookie cutter way to becoming a professional voice actor I don’t know why I did quotes professional voice actor there is no cookie cutter away there’s no there’s no Gatekeepers if you want to get into voiceover professionally you can just buy a membership on voices.com or voice123 and just do auditions and get at her it’s you’re going to have an easier time if you work with someone but it doesn’t take a year of doing once a week voiceover classes which like if you’re not even trying to get work at the time you’re doing those voiceover classes they’re going to be worthless for you you know you got to be working at it every day and yes coaching can help get you there quicker but everybody’s path is different you don’t need to do a year of coaching to work it’s just not true now if it was true how do you explain this this and hopefully my editor knows how to put this on the screen this is my student Ross after two one-on-one sessions with me and doing my online course this is the car commercial that he booked that I was up for but he beat me a passion for restoration and years of refining and perfecting led to one does that sound like a professional voice actor to you does to me does that sound like someone who’s only had two one-on-one sessions you know by that theory that you have to study for a year here he should be terrible right but he wasn’t he was awesome because he studied with the right coach now I’m not toting my horn here a little bit but when I coach people I coach them to work I don’t tell them oh you can’t do this and you can’t do that I I think everything is possible you know put it this way I do both voiceover in film and TV and I can tell you this right now and I’m sure some people on voiceover be like not true but it is true working on film and TV on set is infinitely harder than doing voiceover both can be difficult but for me at least walking in talking dealing with a director a scene partner hitting marks lighting and all the crew around you is way harder than doing voiceover yet history is riddled with people who have won Oscars that have never taken even one acting class not even one how do you explain that so in this business there’s a lot of negative people everybody has an opinion if you look to the voiceover forums you can just see negative comment after negative comment after a negative comment stay away from those people get around people that think things are possible get out there start there is never a right time to start start when you’re not ready and yes get coaching but start working right away working towards it you’re not going to burn any Bridges if you do a bad job no one’s going to go I’m not going to talk to that person for a year nothing bad is going to happen if you want to do this start now and you don’t even have to start with me I’m not pitching my coaching okay start with somebody that’s working ask them how much they make ask them how much they work look them up Google their name online see if they’ve got press That’s how you find a good coach and make sure that they’re positive and and they’ve got your best interest in mind and they’re not just trying to take your money see when you work with me I try to convince you not to I only want to work with people that work hard that actually have a Fighting Chance of doing this and the only way to do it is if you have a growth mindset and not a static one where you think oh I can’t get better you have to have a growth mindset and think that you can do this you don’t even have to have a good voice you just got to be a hard worker think you can work like hell and really believe in yourself and then I’ll work with you so that’s it that’s all if you got any value out of this at all please like And subscribe so I can keep making more voiceover content for you uh if you’re interested in my course or coaching
