(openPR) - With over twenty-five years experience in the industry Peter K. O'Connell is one of North America's top voice over coaches and voice talents. O'Connell's voice has been used in television and radio commercials, broadcast network promos and on narrations for videos and e-learning nationwide.

In his new lesson on Voice Over Experts entitled "The First 15 Seconds," O'Connell teaches voice talent why it is so important to establish the tonality of a script, the sell, and its character and relationship with the listener within the first fifteen seconds of an audition. O'Connell explains why that short amount of time is all that talent have to capture the ear of the casting agent before they move on to the next audition.

The Voice Over Experts podcast is hosted by Voices.com, the leading voice over marketplace. The podcasts offer an on-line library of free voice acting lessons for new and established voice actors who want to refine their knowledge and skills from the privacy of their own home and at their own pace.
