If you're brand new to the voiceover business, I would recommend you come in for the Voiceover Exploration.
Whoa, whoa, WHOA!

(If anyone says you don't, or if discussion of a home studio is NOT a part of what they're offering, say thank you and WALK AWAY - they're clueless about today's business.) You need to be able to practice a whole heckuva lot on mic to get good enough to compete, and then you'll need to be able to record and send auditions to your agent.
