While you make some great points over coach investing, I must say that voice123 is an iffy reputation for posting auditions very late in the game, even closed ones, which is not great, and makes them look bad. Really defeating the whole purpose of their $199 subscription. Unlike Voices which has been more sustainable and current, nailing more auditions, even callbacks for building a portfolio sad to add. I've done Voice for years, never many issues outside of dealing with 123 as mentioned. But your tips here are appreciated no less 👍 :)

Jesse, you need to BREATHE!

I love it 😂😂😂😂 what the 🔥🔥🔥

Thank you, Jesse Carroll. Words of pure inspiration.

Excellent! "Loquitur" basically means "Speaker"... from the Latin (old Latin).

This is super helpful, thank you so much!

This was such a great coaching session from you Jesse. You in my opinion is the best 🔥💯💪🏾🎙️ I’m sure there are other great VO coaches but you are in the conversation as well.

Oh this is going to be good!!

Great video Jesse ... so glad I have the oppurtunity to be coached and gudied by you in this voice over journey. I am super excited 💯❤‍🔥🎙🦾

Do a Warm Up. PLEASE!

So i dont understand. Why is being invited to projects not based on skill but membership level? Just seems a little silly considering that site is where people find jobs.

Most people listen to the lies and stop warming up the ice when it reaches 30, 31, 32 degrees. No! Keep going! Powerful message, Jesse.

Awesome job Ernesto!

I’m just trying to figure out wtf is up with that gay ass picture of you in the thumbnail lol

Thank you for sharing your perspective and personal anecdotes. I think you gave great advice that applies to every pursuit and not just voiceover, and adding examples from your own background really drives the point home. Keep doing what you do!

wow super inspiration jesse, thanks

Great message Jesse! Thank you for sharing the encouragement. Also, fun fact; I took a course with Dave. Learned a lot and he's also a great guy. Wishing you both much success.

Fantastic video, really good, honest advice

You read lines that have already been recorded by actual voice actors for real content.....on youtube shorts 😂🎉

1:19 freak'in solid advice. Couldn't have said it better myself. Chase those opportunities!!!!

Yep! ...It took me 5 years to get a paid spot as a comedian...I remember it was $25. I had it framed!

Really good video! Man, hearing your stories always makes me want to work even harder (and more efficiently) towards my goals. PD: To all Jesse Carroll community members, I'm collecting signatures to ask for an online stand-up comedy show just for us. Leave a comment if you agree to this >)

Always great advice. Always well produced. Your positivity and work ethic is contagious. Send me that vodka!!

I love it! Great video Jesse and your story will help so many people along our journeys . Plus new record for the F bomb in a video, congrats! I may watch again just to count how many lol.

Your positivity and outlook is motivating and very appreciated! Learn something new about you every video!

I’m pretty happy with my Neumann BCM-104. I have yet to sample a U87, but I suppose that you can’t miss what you’ve never had. 🙂👍🏻

Thank you Jesse :) I'm hoping after further research, in August or September I can begin my path!

Really thanks for this precious information hope me i could afford to buy a microphone to start 🥲💗💗

I Live in queens, nyc....where did you rent your mic's from?

Let's Gooooooo Ernesto!!!! You got this

Yoooooooo Ernesto!!! Let’s go!

Thanks for this advice

And NEVER. NEVER. EVER try The Bunny which I think might be going under. Too bad. Not sad.

DO NOT DO FREELANCER. If a client makes a buy and cancels, you pay the fee they would pay. NOT COOL. Just sayn. And Upwork has too many "KZfaqrs" asking for 10 minute videos for $35. Nope. Nope. Nope.

Noted❤️

Word ♨️

Great session!

Amazing advice as usual!

Your videos are so helpful. I have watched almost all of them 😅. I am genuinely impressed by your voice range. I inspired to become a voice actor, just like you. I have been auditioning in a site called "Casting Call Club" for the past four months, but I have gotten only one role and it's a non paid one. Recently I upgraded my equipment and bought a blue yeti X and a pop filter, which should be better than my phone's microphone. Yesterday I learned of "Voice123" and found that tou have a video about it. It helped a lot. I hope I can get more job opportunities now and improve even more in the future. I have a question also. Would you recommend that I use Voice123 as a beginner voice actor? Thanks for the useful information❤

I would definitely follow a voice warmup!

A warm over video would be great

I would totally love if you'd do a voice warmup video on your page ! Took a bunch of classes that taught warmups but its always helpful to see other types. Have a rockstar day!

Won’t ai make voice acting irrelevant

You just gained a new subscriber! Love your brutal honesty!

Thanks , is this true for the paid membership? Or is this just for the free membership?

I started thinking this was going to be the first vid without humor, then about halfway through I was like, ah there it is! 😂 You always have golden VO nuggets to share. 🎉

Nice.. I met Patsy once. Great Recommendation. Her name is Roe..denburg. Not Rodd. BTW. But great recommendation. Nice video. And yes warm up would be great. Thank you!

No negativity!

Thanks for sharing Dariel. Was nice to hear a fellow VOs mission. And hearing it is so similar to mine its given me a boost of confidence when i needed it the most. I'd love to get a consultation with you Jesse, you've been one of two main inspirations this last year or so. My concerns is that, ive no savings left currently, so wouldnt be able to get straight on training with you after. Although it has been on my mind for a while.

Hey man, thank you for the feedback re jobs on VDC at the beginning. Also I built my own booth. $600. You mentioned if you wanted to see or know how I did it, so I will try to contact you at your Insta or gmail. Cheers! and again Thank ya!
