We know you just do not want to listen. Like many other individuals, we know that you want to take part and make your voice heard not just in the country but all over the world. We are aware that for so long, you have been listening and imitating the voices you have been hearing on the television, on the radio, and even on the computer speakers when you play games and use other applications. But since you’ve been doing this for a long, long time already, it is no longer a surprise for you to wish for a change. Now you dream of becoming one of them—those people whose faces are unseen and whose voices resonate all over the world. You think now that you just don’t want to listen.

Apparently, you want to be a voice artist. You love the idea of mastering the craft and soon learning more of how to produce voices that would definitely rock the house and make people’s world’s stop. You want to master a kind of talent that could be your asset and so whenever people would ask you to do “sample,” things would never be the same again.

The good thing is, we know how you can start realizing this dream. In CreatiVoices Productions, we offer a Voice Acting and Basic Dubbing Workshop that is designed not just for participants to learn the basics of the art of voice acting but also to further nourish their passion for voice acting.
