Haven't seen any conversation about the mandy competition yet. I hope you submitted your entry and pls consider voting/feedback as it helps the artist.
Hi I have entered the competition. Been doing the odd voice over for a couple of years but would like to get into audio books. So I thought I'd give the audio book category a go. Here is my entry.
I'd be grateful for any criticism that points me the right way for the future.

Thank you good luck everyone
Hi all! Brand new member here, and have submitted my Emerging Talent voice over today! I've gone down the commercial route, as have done some work in that sector. I was tempted to try the Audio Books, but heard this was a tough part of the business! Would love to hear if anyone else has experiences with Audio Books and would recommend getting in to it, or even what the best route for someone without experience doing that would be....
Many thanks, and good luck to everyone who has entered the comp! James
I wonder if any of you might be able to offer some advice on this (perhaps someone might be in a similar position):
On 21/7 I took out the free month trial which was on offer by Mandy Voices to enter the VO Competition. Does anyone know what will happen when my month trial expires - presumably in 2 days? Having entered the VO competition I'd expect that I'll have to keep my premium profile active until the winners are announced? But if I leave my profile active for now, I'm not sure what will happen with regard to any prospective automatic payments that might happen after 21/8? I've been a Mandy Actors premium member for years and Mandy naturally have my bank details. I certainly wouldn't want to be automatically billed for a year's annual membership at the moment although I may join Voices properly later once I have my home studio set up and can record remotely.
I did try phoning them to ask about this but there's no-one in their office because of Covid. If you try e-mailing them, you are restricted to 300 characters (basically 2 or 3 lines), so I've just had to ask them to contact me back by phone. Awaiting a reply.
Good luck with all your VO entries, and any help much appreciated.
Cheers!
James
Editorial Comment Hello James,
Our Trials are non-obligatory so your profile will revert to free standard membership at the end of your trial and this will not affect your entry. Please contact us at emails@mandy.com if you have any further issues.
After a video essay for uni went surprisingly well, I felt encouraged to check out the possibilities of doing more VO work.
As a complete newb to VO, I am pretty happy with my entry (though I'm sure there is room enough for improvements!). Anyway, check it out if you will and I hope you like it...
Good luck, everyone! This is the first time I've entered the competition (in the Commercial section), and I'd love to get any feedback on my proffereing :)
Hi there, I just wanted to confirm if you have to be a paying member to enter the competition? As I don't currently have premium membership and I cannot find the enter button to upload my entry.
Good luck with your entries!
Kind Regards,
Lydia
Editorial Comment Hello Everyone,
We apologize for this. The deadline for the competition is tonight at 23:59 UK time. We had an issue last night but it should be fixed now, so you should have no problem entering the competition today.
If you have any further issues, please do get back in contact with us at emails@mandy.com
Hey all. Thought I'd add to the conversation. You can view my entry in the Emerging Artists Voiceover category here: https://www.mandy.com/competition/voiceover-competition-2020/share/5758764 x
Hi Guys, I'm another newbie with so much to learn. Submitted my entry of course but feel it's a bit like buying a lottery ticket. Looking for constructive feedback and probably more training both in presentation and engineering. Great fun though and you guys are all sooooo talented. I love listening to you. Good luck all.
Hi all - just managed to get my entry in under the wire! I've really enjoyed listening to the other entries, lots of fab voices out there. Good luck all.
Hi everyone! I've had a Many acting profile for a while now, but since I've been doing a few audiobooks I thought I would give this competition a go. I'm hoping to get a gig with one of the Big Finish audios if anyone listens to them, if you haven't they are fantastic! I would definitely give some of the earlier Doctor Who one's a listen. Anyway here's my entry, give it a listen if you like.
Hi Folks, I'd love some feedback on my entry good or bad. .Completely new to voiceover other that doing a few bits and pieces for friends over the last few months. So excited to be a part of this but also realize I am at the start of a steep and competitive learning curve.

Good Luck everyone especially Sarah whose link I accidently used in my earlier post (Oops!)
Good luck to everyone! I'm new to the voice acting game and was so excited to learn about this competition. I had a lot of fun with the video game script. If anyone is curious, my entry is here: https://www.mandy.com/competition/voiceover-competition-2020/share/5758447
I've enjoyed listening to the entries I've heard so far. The phrase "Variety is the spice of life." really rings true in hearing just how many ways a script can be interpreted.
