Compare this 8 week course to many other courses nationwide charging $2500 for only 3 days of instruction! Jean has taught many of those students who first paid those outrageous fees before taking her class. Many of her glowing testimonials are from those same students after just 2 weeks in her class. YOU DON'T HAVE TO PAY THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO GET GREAT VOICE OVER TRAINING!
Read what others have to say about Jean's classes:
"I’ve done lots of television and film work, and even some voice over; but the world of voice over is so specialized, that, in spite of working with other voice over coaches, I never felt like I was ‘ready’ to do my own demo. After just a few hours with Jean it all fell into place! Her advice and coaching were right on target in her class, and invaluable in the recording studio right through to the finished product. I would not hesitate to use Jean for special projects as well as to continue to keep my newly found skills in tune, and I highly recommend Jean’s classes for beginner through experienced actors!"
- Linda Castro (award winning actress with co-staring roles on ER, The Shield, Cold Case, Philly, Silk Stalkings and Veronica Mars)
"Whether you're just beginning or, like me, need to have the rust polished off your skills, Jean can take you from printed page to a ready for prime time MP3 demo."
- Marje Rody
"Over the years, Jean's students show up prepared and well-schooled in voice over technique and understanding of the craft. If you want to develop your skills as a voice over talent, Jean's class is a good place to start."
- Jimmy Silver, Owner of The Reel Thing Recording Studios
"Being in Jean’s class was worth 100% of the time, money and effort I put into it. Not only does she manage to instruct her class with the utmost professionalism, she’s amazingly fun and talented. Before taking the Find Your Voice - Voice Over class, I thought I really knew all I needed to know about getting into voice over acting but after this class, I realize there was so much that I was clueless about. I would most definitely recommend this class to anyone."
- Bethany W. - Pittsburgh Class at Donna Belajac Casting
"Jean's class was fun and was able to make the shyest person open up. She's a wonderful woman who knows her stuff and helps improve beginners or pros. The recording studio is top of the line with great engineers. Find Your Voice - Voice Over Institute is really more than I imagined it would be."
- Jennifer Heilman - Pittsburgh Class at Donna Belajac Casting
“The experience of learning to become a voice-over artist can be intimidating. My experience was exciting! The eight weeks of on-microphone work offered not only a great “vocal work-out”, but an excellent introduction into the world of voice-over artists. Jean’s expert guidance and brilliant sense of humor more than prepared me for our 'final exam' – recording our “commercial spot” during a professional recording session. Thanks for sharing Jean.”
- Frank E. Baker- Pittsburgh Class at Donna Belajac Casting
"Class with Jean is a laugh! The atmosphere is such that when you are pushed to step out of your "comfort zone", you are comfortable doing it. You realize you have more in there, and Jean and your classmates help you find it and bring it out. The recording session at Market Street Sound was a great crowning moment to the class. Do I really sound like that?! Thanks, Jean and my 'burgh classmates!"
- Mary Ann Graziano - Pittsburgh Class at Donna Belajac Casting
