Hi Jodi, there's a "talent sign up" button in red at the top on this address: http://www.voplanet.com/
If you decide to sign up give my name as a referral and we'll share the $40!

Jodi Krangle · 07-18-2008, 08:56 AM

Hi Claire. I'm planning on signing up, but I'm going to wait until this cold has finally passed. That way, I won't feel reticent about actually doing auditions.

But when I do sign up, I'll be happy to mention your name. And you can keep the $40.

I figure your advice, encouragement and help so far is worth far more than that already.

VO planet: Fewer leads but with higher budgets.
You just pay -- and you are in, I think.
I am new there so it's early to say how well it will work for me.

Jodi Krangle · 07-18-2008, 09:42 AM

Hi Michael. I did notice though, that their fees are lower than both Voices.com & Voice123 - so if there are fewer leads but for better jobs, it's likely worth it. And yes, I'm under the impression that anyone can be in if they pay. It's worth trying out, anyway. I'll be signing up as soon as I feel up to doing auditions again.

(I'm in the studio on Monday for a job, so I *better* be ready by then.

)

Well, Jodi
You might want to wait a bit -- the VOplanet site is down (Friday night)...
We anxiously await its return.
But you can't pay your fee if the site is not there....

Jodi Krangle · 07-18-2008, 10:27 PM

Yeah - looks like I'll have no *choice* but to wait.

Which ... is probably a good thing.

I'll be curious to hear what the problem was when they do come back (as I'm sure they will).

Hello everyone - I signed up with them about 2 weeks ago and also signed with their agency (that get's you a little logo next to your voplanet listing and also listing on voicebank). The auditions are few but good. If any of you get auditions from Nancy Wolfson and BigFish - you'll find that there is alot of cross over - but it's not total. For instance, this week they both sent me the Target audition but the week before I got a couple from Big Fish that voPlanet did not have. The team at voPlanet is very responsive and helpful. So far - I'm really liking it. Hope this helps.

Although I cannot figure out why, I'm kind'a partial to VO Planet. I've been with them a couple of months and have submitted six or seven auditions, with little result.

Only yesterday I had a callback for a short-listed Round Two from my latest stab there.

The job listings are infrequent, but high-end. I also note many immediate deadlines there for leads that I received elsewhere in plenty of time.
Their audition process is quick and pain-free. Unlike more bashful sites, they actually list jobs won by their stable.

September Day, Dave DeAndrea and other talents have booked good jobs there.
In my view, they're legit and professional.

Mileage, however, may vary.

Wafflingly Yours,
