Overcooking Your VO? Here's Exactly What You're Doing Wrong

In this video, I break down exactly what overcooking is, why new (and even experienced) voice actors do it, and simple fixes to sound real, relatable, and conversational — the style clients crave today.

You’ll get practical steps like:

• Softening hard T’s (important → impor’ant)
