I don't have any real qualifications, I did a small college course in sound design/engineering that I never finished. The only real qualification you need is drive/motivation and also something unique (or mostly unique ) about your voice to stand out. I , for example , have a deep voice. Surprisingly the % of people with that "trailer" type voice in the biz is quite low compared to regular VO artists.

ok its now in the OP

No, I don't get recognised. But I do have fun with cold calling salesman. I'll often dive straight into Duke Nukem or just narrate everything they say in a movie style.

Yes I can. Ill post it on YouTube in the next half hour.

Well I'm based in the UK! I work with an american accent for a lot of my projects. The beauty of doing VO's is that you can be from anywhere as long as you have the flexibility and skill for accents.
