How do I become a Voiceover Artist?

We have answered this at some length elsewhere in this blog. We also created a website especially to answer these questions: How to be a voiceover.

But recently we came across this useful page in the Media Guardian which adds a bit of colour:

You don't have to do funny voices - but you will need to practise, practise, practise!

And yes we also make voiceover showreels too...
