This has been a busy week for us here at VO2GoGo International Headquarters. New site, a second class at a second location, new video class recorded and published, new Pro members, blah blah blah.
Details are below.
You, the VO2GoGo subscriber, now get access to next week’s class on both Sunday and Tuesday – yep: a second live class to choose from each week.
And – there’s a new video class, just for you.
The door is now open. And what do you know? THERE ARE PARTICIPANT SEATS OPEN. Wha?

Commercial VO, Part 1 | Get details
On radio and television, sell products and services for fun and profit.
The most common category of work, commercial copy occupies a special place in the rainbow of work you will encounter in your voiceover career. Especially here in the US, where broadcast television and radio is almost entirely advertiser supported, honing your performance skills in commercial copy is paramount.
What skills you’ll get:
In this Secrets of VO class, David H. Lawrence XVII teaches you, step-by-step, how to voice commercial copy, how to create memorable auditions and find commercial work. Secrets revealed:
- the two most important concepts of effective commercial performance
- the most critical words in any copy
- the three ways to end a sentence, and which one will get you booked
- how one man in the 1950s changed the world of commercials forever
- and more
Copy provided? You bet.
In this class, all students, Auditors and Participants alike, will be provided with lecture notes and commercial VO copy. Participants will be directed and recorded; Auditors will observe that process. The recordings will be given to each Participant to use as mini-starter demos (in advance of completed professional demos), showing their mastery of the particular category of voicework performed.
Classes open up for registration the week prior to class. If you’d like to be notified when registration opens, join VO2GoGo’s SOVO (Secrets of VoiceOver) mailing list. If you’d like to attend this class for free on first-come, first-served basis,become a VO2GoGo Pro member.

Can’t make it to Sunday’s classes? Maybe you have stuff you do at night on Sundays, or you have to get up early on Monday. Maybe you’re allergic to our new video classes.
I hear you. You have yet another option now, in addition to my new video classes (details at http://www.vo2gogo.com/vclasses). STARTING THIS COMING TUESDAY, on June 19th, I’ll be repeating the live class from Sunday night, at the cheery hour of 10am, going to 1p at SSLA in Burbank, in the NY Film Academy Building on the first floor. You’ll now have twice the opportunity to learn, twice the opportunity to fight the traffic if you live in the OC, and twice the opportunity to scratch and claw your way to being a Participant (as well as twice the opportunity to calmly choose to be an Auditor).
Watch http://www.vo2gogo.com/classes for further information. Pro members, use your discount code to get in on the new Tuesday morning classes free.
If you need anything, let me know. See you in class!
