- After 18 years of live performing, she shifted her focus from stage to studio, and began doing voice over on commercials for Kraft, Febreze, Target, and Airbnb, to name a few.
- She soon expanded into the world of video games, voicing Impa in Nintendo’s “Zelda: Breath of the Wild” and “Tears of the Kingdom”. To date, Andi has voiced over 20 video game titles and counting.
- In the animation world, Andi can be heard on episodes of “Duncanville” for Fox, “Archibald’s Next Big Thing” for Netflix, and “Thundercats Roar!” for Cartoon Network – including the main theme song. Andi also sang on the premiere episode of “Hacks” for HBO Max, and most recently “Bugs Bunny Builders” on Cartoonito.
- She’ll still hop in front of the camera now and then – you can catch Andi as the Witch for Google Nest’s Halloween campaign.
Learn to Record from Home!
In today’s market, Voice Over Artists do their recording almost entirely from their home studios.
Our Voice Over classes are also conducted remotely, on Zoom!
This is in the best interest of anyone interested in actually doing voice overs,
as you will need to know how to record yourself with your own equipment.
Equipment Needed:
You will need a computer with a camera and a microphone, and a reliable internet connection.
You may already have a microphone, or headset with a microphone,
that will be adequate certain Voice Over classes, especially those that are intro level.
Your instructor will assess your microphone during the first class and let you know if you need something better / clearer.
If you do need a different mic, we can recommend some that are reasonably priced.
We can’t wait to help you explore the world of Voice Over!
Be sure to check your schedule carefully before enrolling, as there are no refunds issued under any circumstances.
