Profit Sharing & Indie Games: A New Approach to Voice Over with Michael Everhard
One great way to build a portfolio in gaming is to work with Indie Game Developers. You get access to opportunities. Build your credits and hone your craft.
Michael Everhard recognizes this, and has taken an interesting approach to his latest collaboration. He's teamed up with a studio for a game he's passionate about and taken on a role beyond simply voice actor. Rather than regular payment, he's entered into a profit sharing arrangement.
For gaming studios in tight budgets, this could be a new way to approach them with your marketing. Michael shares plenty of tips on doing just that.
Michael is also a Nimble Jedi, and we get into that too.
