Gravy For The Brain is the world's largest and most established online voiceover training platform, founded in 2008 by Hugh Edwards and Peter Dickson (the iconic voice of The X Factor and Big Brother UK). With over 70,000 students served, it's the go-to platform for aspiring and working voiceover artists looking to build a professional career in voice acting.

Why This Platform Stands Out

Gravy For The Brain isn't just courses — it's a complete career platform. Members get 17 certificated courses, weekly live webinars with industry professionals, 1-on-1 mentoring forums, live group mentoring sessions, CRM tools for managing their VO business, and access to a global community of thousands of voice actors. The instructors are working professionals, not just teachers — Peter Dickson alone has voiced thousands of TV shows and commercials. The platform covers every voiceover niche from commercial to gaming to audiobooks, and the all-in-one membership means you're not nickel-and-dimed for each course. With 100+ hours of course content and 150+ hours of webinar archives, the depth of material is unmatched.

Who It Is For

Complete beginners curious about voiceover as a career, actors looking to add VO to their skill set, podcasters and content creators wanting professional voice quality, working voiceover artists wanting to expand into new niches (audiobooks, gaming, e-learning), and anyone interested in voice-based content creation (YouTube, podcast intros, etc). All skill levels welcome — courses are structured from beginner through advanced.

Career Outcomes

Commercial Voice Actor ($50-$500+ per spot), Audiobook Narrator ($100-$400+ per finished hour, or royalty share), E-Learning Narrator ($200-$350 per finished hour), Video Game Voice Actor ($200-$1,000+ per session), Corporate Narration ($200-$500 per project), Promo/Trailer Voice ($500-$5,000+ per spot).
