Good goin' Jodi!

Oh...and js...you're right I AM a bilingual talent, but the clients that I get from all over are not necessarily all for my French.

Many of my Canadian & European clients just want my English speaking skills (I actually got contacted today by a French company that wants me to record in English - go figure!).

Yes, the fact that I DO speak a second language is a HUGE asset to me, even beyond my VO career, but in terms of where I get clients from, I still stand by my "the world is your pond" statement!

And Bob, of course, you're right, if you are union, going after union work, your "hub" will be different than what I am describing as a non-union talent.

Onward & upward!

Peace!
Liz
