New! Online Advanced ANIMATION VOICE OVER Intensive with Heather Dame, Voice-Over Agent, Atlas Talent

Tuesday, June 15, 2021, 7pm ET / 4pm PT

As an agent who built Atlas' animation and game departments from the ground up, Heather has the background and experience to give insight and perspective on not only how to get started in animation, but once you have an agent, how to grow and thrive in a full career.

She'll start off with an intro/Q&A answering all questions with 100% transparency and honesty, so bring any question you've ever wanted to ask about animation and/or agents or both!  After that, you'll get in the "virtual" booth.

Please bring a few sets of animation/game copy to work with her on. Her intensive will get through at least one per person, if not more. Be prepared for 2-3 just in case you want to pivot or she asks you to read something completely different.

Heather has a great birdseye point of view on what casting is looking for across all networks. She'll also give you great insight into the audition process and the auditions that tend to win the job!

Limited to 12 V/O actors!

Heather Dame

Heather is currently the SVP of Atlas LA and heads up Atlas' west coast branch.  She was tasked by Atlas to move out to Los Angeles 10 years ago to help develop and start up the new West Coast branch of the company. This included building the foundation of a positive public brand for the company by developing new relationships and engaging clients and buyers in the company philosophy, building new buyer relationships, growing and pitching new areas of business and carefully crafting a successful talent roster to invest in.

Heather built Atlas' Animation department from the ground up, as well as had a close hand and partnership with other agents in developing the Los Angeles commercial, video game and promo/narration/trailer departments. Seven years later and four office expansions later, Atlas LA has 7 full-time employees and competes with the top LA Voice-over agencies. 

Heather heads up the animation department and also works as an agent in the areas of promos, trailers, narrations and video games. She is passionate about developing talent and creating new business equally and enjoys the creative parts of agent-ing just as much as the problem solving and negotiating side. She believes in conducting business openly and honestly.
