Take a look and decide what ingredients to add to your own business to help take it to the next tasty level. (Of course, we can all be given the same ingredients—but it’s our special touch that makes the dish our very own!)
In addition to this buffet of information provided by seasoned veterans, I share some of their favorite recipes (the kind you actually cook!) Be inspired, and start cooking up a great voice over career.

About Christi Bowen:
Christi Bowen is a professional voice talent with 20 years of experience in voice over and video production.
Christi graduated from the University of Florida, where she fell in love with all things broadcast production. Her voice over career began while writing, voicing and producing local radio spots. She was a weekend DJ but loved voicing commercials more.
After graduation, Christi worked in the commercial production department of a major cable company where, once again, she wrote, produced and voiced many of the local TV advertising campaigns. Her direction shifted to film and TV production for a number of years, including working in Hollywood on the movies Galaxy Quest and Patch Adams.
Following that, Christi became a TV producer with a Nashville, Tennessee, company, working on a Department of Defense contract to produce TV and radio Public Service Announcements for the military overseas. While there, she won nine Telly Awards for her TV spots.
But voice overs were always Christi’s true love. Getting back into full-time voice work 5 years ago, Christi has developed a roster of clients all over the world and on many types of projects, from commercials and corporate narrations to eLearning modules and phone system recordings.
