Yes, Bobbin.
I noticed some good jobs coming through.

One thing to watch out for in the better quality postings... I found this out from Vic at Airwave Talent. Then saw it myself a few times.

There is apparently an agent or casting person who is getting good leads from voicebank.net...and posting them on v123. But for a LOT less.

For, example, One recent lead that I got from my Houston agent paid $1400 inclusive of agent commissions.

Commissions would typically be 15% non union ($210)
10% union ($140)

But on voice123 the job was listed as paying $1000. That's almost a 30% commission!

Another one that Airwave talent sent me paid $3500 + agent commission... and the posting for it on voice123 said job paid $3000. So this person will take the commission plus $500.
I'm not saying that a $3000 gig wouldn't be good. (This one would for that!) But if you get the same copy from a couple of your agents (On this one I got it from two agents and v123) why submit on v123 when every submission is a knock against your rating...and you'll make more if you get it through an agent that cares about a long term relationship with you? And not submitting leaves a slot open for another talent who may not have been able to submit... and who may not have an agent who sends good leads!

So do the auditions, but save them for when your agents call...so you can submit through them and make more money!

BY the way... the client who is doing this (and I don't know who it is) is the one who also emphatically states that we don't slate, and apologizes that he wont' rate our auditions.
