All of this led to signing with a top VoiceOver agent and booking jobs!
There aren't enough words to express how awesome Chuck Duran is!! His knowledge and understanding of the VoiceOver business is unlike any I've seen (and I have been in this city for a while!) From the beginning of my endeavors, he brought me to an amazing coach and mentored and recorded an amazing demo for me. All of this led to signing with a top VoiceOver agent and booking jobs! This guy truly knows his stuff! I'm forever grateful to him.

Thanks for kick-starting my career with a demo that rocks and continues to rock!
Hey Chuck! Just wanted to let you know that thanks to your help and guidance last year I have a pretty steady "part-time" voice over job.
Hopefully I can transition it into full-time soon. Since December, I have voiced a number of radio spots, over 60 explainer videos, an audio-book with 9 more to go and I also just finished a Visa Card.com commercial that will run nationally.
With the time that I have available to do voice-overs, I have been pretty busy with at least one paying job every day. Again, thanks for kick-starting my career with a demo that rocks and continues to rock!

Chuck is a great director and easy to work with. I came prepared, and so did he!
You cannot afford to NOT have Chuck Duran produce your demo!
I went to Chuck on the recommendation of my audiobook coach, and I couldn’t be more satisfied and delighted with both his work and the man himself. Chuck is friendly, laid-back, encouraging, and fun; the genuine article. His work is, in a word, impeccable.
He responded quickly to my initial inquiry (within a day), he spent a very fruitful and productive initial session with me, identifying just what to include in the demo based on my signature and his immense knowledge of this business. He sent me customized scripts based on how each product positions itself and my character style for each. As for the recording session, I never had so much fun and felt so good about my work.
Chuck is a great director and easy to work with. I came prepared, and so did he!
But, don’t just hire Chuck to produce your demo, make sure you also get the marketing package that he offers. It is worth it! Chuck’s advice and guidance about where and how to submit your demo is beyond priceless. What would have taken me months (and possibly years) and many missteps to figure out on my own, Chuck gave me in one session. Not only that, he continues to be available to me for questions, and he responds right away. I don’t have to wait long to hear back from him.
Most importantly, from a career perspective, my demo has secured me an agent, and it didn’t take long! And it continues to get me work on a regular basis. Working with Chuck Duran has been one of the best investments I’ve made in my voiceover career.
Not only did your demo open the door, but I got the job and am proud to say that you’ll soon be hearing me as the national voice for Oreck Vacuums!
WOW! Working with you, Chuck has already MORE than paid for itself. AND in less than a month, I might add! After getting my demos done with you, I was invited to audition by a casting company that recently looked me over after submitting my other commercial demo. Not only did your demo open the door, but I got the job and am proud to say that you'll soon be hearing me as the national voice for Oreck Vacuums!
And it doesn't end there. Thanks to your amazing ability I've booked jobs with Lowe's, Coca Cola, McDonalds, Custom Ink, Hamilton Beach and more! I also followed your instructions on gaining further representation to expand my reach and am happy to say that your demos gained me 2 more agents, one of which is in Vancouver!
I can't thank you enough for the dedication, hard work and overall badass quality that you put into my demos in order to help me further my career. The price I paid was a great investment in myself and I couldn't be happier with the results. My only regret is that I didn't find out about you sooner. I can't tell you the amount of money I could've SAVED if I just would've had you do my demos first -- My other demos weren't converting NEARLY as much as yours.
Thanks again, Chuck!!! You're the absolute BEST at what you do! [If anyone reading this feels the need to reach out and chat about my experience with Chuck Duran, feel free to do so. I can be reached at Mike@MikeDoesVoices.com. In this business, we succeed by standing on each others shoulders.

Chuck is fantastic – go work with him, I promise you won’t regret it!
Recording my commercial demos with Chuck was a blast from start to finish! He’s really laid-back & makes the process very easy. I loved how thorough he was - from the personality questions in the consultation that allowed us to figure out my strongest vocal qualities & therefore pick commercials that worked really well for my particular voice, to the detailed direction that I got in the booth on my reads.
He also works with you until you’re completely happy with the final product, which was a necessity for a perfectionist like me! The marketing info was SO useful too - I followed the strategy and landed a fantastic agent within a month of starting my email campaign! I also took Chuck’s advice on equipment and now have a solid, A-1 kit for my home recording studio. All in all, Chuck is fantastic - go work with him, I promise you won’t regret it!
