Voiceover Agencies play an intermediary role between the 'clients' (advertising agencies, TV & radio production companies or radio stations, animation studios for example) and the artist. An example of a voiceover talent agency is Vox Talent
Generally, most artists are solely represented by one agency, who deal with castings, contractual issues, financial negotiations, invoicing and diary bookings. The agency usually takes 15% commission.
Famous quotes containing the word agency:
“It is possible that the telephone has been responsible for more business inefficiency than any other agency except laudanum.... In the old days when you wanted to get in touch with a man you wrote a note, sprinkled it with sand, and gave it to a man on horseback. It probably was delivered within half an hour, depending on how big a lunch the horse had had. But in these busy days of rush-rush-rush, it is sometimes a week before you can catch your man on the telephone.”
—Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
