PRO TIPs For Vocaroo Performers

*****PRO-TIPS FOR VOCAROO READERS******

Would you like to be one of those girls who is called for when she stops posting? Want more requests and respect? Read on.

1.  Always announce yourself to set ID, if you feel like recording. Pick a name to use (not your own) so it’s easier to find your stuff.

2. There’s a difference between READING and PERFORMING. Reading is fast and impersonal. Performance is slower-paced and personal. A great voice actress puts a lot of herself in her performances.  Slow down and Put what you can into yours

3. Be very conscientious about doing requests. That’s one of the quickest ways to build fans and get respect.

4. Post something. It is hard to get attention if you aren't posting anything. That’s what we have ‘Questions for New Girls,” challenges and stories available on the thread for.

5. Get to know the other girls. They have probably done what you have questions about. Use that resource.  And if you don’t want to do that singing request you got, pass it to the girl who does them.

6. Ignore trolls and haters. It’s a sad fact that a lot of people don’t like what they see but don’t have the social skills to not express themselves about it.  Just let it slide. They are not worth your time.

7.  It’s not about voice quality all the time.  Here’s what one anon said about voice quality:

“……as long as your recordings aren't 50% ear-rape static someone will probably get off to what you record. So long as it's a female voice. Yea, you could have the most nasally, monotone, down-syndrome voice and someone will be into it...”

8. Subject matter is important. Be clear on what you will and will not do. But don’t be too picky if you want more requests. Our anon on  subject matter:

“These threads are supposed to be fun, just record what you like. If you're really into a kink, or an idea just ask someone to write or post something. No matter how weird it is, someone is likely to be into it.”

9. Finally, cut yourself some slack. Here’s what a current performer had to say:

“I completely sucked when I first started... I'm still not all that great, and I don't have a huge fanbase because I'm pretty tame (I do poetry and crazy gf scripts lol).... but people are generally pretty welcoming.”

You will get better with practice, and build a fan-base. Follow these tips  good performer behavior and you'll have fun. Everyone is someone's cup of tea. You will be too.
