What PDR Clients Are Saying

PDR TESTIMONIALS

"Hey Peter, I just booked the Voice of Campbell's Soup! I've been recording demos since May and finally booked for real last week. It's been a long time coming-- I made my first reel with you over 4 years ago!!! But boy, it sure is worth the wait!"

— Robin Reed
Atlas Talent Client

 

"It is always inspiring and very cool to get so much communicated and accomplished with you so expeditiously... you are pro all the way."

—   Mitch Phillips
Client

"Just wanted to thank you (along with Mark and Ryan) again for the incredible job on both my reels. I'm still reeling (if you will!) over the animation one! It certainly exceeded every expectation, and then some. I came away from our marketing session yesterday more energized than ever and I can't wait to see what the near future has in store!"

—   Matthew Quinn Forbes
Client

"I just officially signed with Jason over at Stewart Talent, so I am very excited about that. Also, after about three auditions, I managed to book a spot for Citizen Bank. So, very pumped man. I have you to thank for all of this Peter. Your help and guidance have been invaluable and I really, really appreciate it."

— Alex Alioto
Client

"From what you taught me in the booth, I know exactly how and
what to do now. I'm thrilled, so thank you again."

—   Doug Davis
Client

"I want to thank you for getting me off on the right foot with your coaching and producing skills. I have been getting nothing but positive feedback on my demo AND Jason from Stewart Talent loves the reel and has called me in to read for some auditions. If that isn’t a great beginning, I don’t know what is!!" -

— Sarah Dacey Charles
Client

" Peter, you know I'm always good for a workshop.
Your people are the best!"

— Joe O'Brien,
Agent for Paradigm Talent Agency

“Since I started working with Peter, I booked the Cingular Wireless account for both their radio and TV campaigns… I don't think it was a coincidence. I have also maintained my job as one of the voices of Showtime. I just wish I could have Peter with me at every audition!”

— Robin Goldsmith,
Atlas Talent Agency

“ After 20 years in the business, I felt like I had reached a plateau in my voice-over/promo career, and I wanted to expand. Since working with Peter, I have booked my FIRST narration ("Great Bears of the World," Animal Planet), my FIRST Hollywood movie trailer (CHARLIE’S ANGELS 2, Columbia Pictures) and my FIRST national spot ("Rogaine"). Peter has a real EAR for directing veteran talent as well as beginners. If I can find the time between all of my sessions, I would like to go back and work with him some more!!!”

— Steve Kamer,
Atlas Talent Agency (New York),
Sutton Barth & Vennari (LA)

“ I just booked a regular gig as the Billboard voice for all ABC-TV Prime Time programming. It’s a Weekly, National, Union Gig...without Peter’s workshops and private study, I don't think I would have booked it. I gave them an audition that was controlled and casual, and so not in my rep 6 months ago.

— Race Taylor,
DJ (WPLJ)

“ I was feeling pretty confident about my voice, but knew I needed to go to the next level. Working with Peter gave me a better understanding of the mindset you need when you go on auditions.”

— Julie Slater,
DJ (K-ROCK),
Arcieri & Associates Agency

“ As the oldest Voice-over studios in Burbank, we work daily with the top talent in the business, and watching Peter work, you can tell he's one of the best!! If you want to bat a thousand, you need a great coach! Peter is THE MAN.”

— Marc Graue,
Marc Graue Recording Studios

“ It wasn't until I studied with Peter Rofé that I began to understand the mechanics of doing effective voice-over work. Since my private coaching sessions, I am now a signed client with Don Buchwald and Associates and I booked my first voice-over commercial for Citizen's Bank.”

— Rosa Curry,
Don Buchwald & Associates

DEMO REEL TESTIMONIALS

It was indeed a pleasure and a valuable learning experience working with you. You are an awesome teacher and coach. You really helped me to relax and focus on the character and the copy allowing the magic to happen instead of listening to myself and trying to make instant adjustments based on what I hear. You are the 4th person I have studied with and are by far the most helpful and insightful teacher to date."

- Bob Armfield, Voice Over Actor/ TV Director

"Thank you so much for helping me to develop a really dynamite reel.
I love it. I feel an incredible sense of accomplishment."

- Maureen Cavanaugh

“ The agents told me that the voice-over CD I sent them was one of the best produced CDs they had ever heard. Peter's sage advice and particular brand of coaching changed my career. I am now with one of the top three voice-over agencies in the city and am already booking jobs. If you want to succeed in this career, you need training. And if you want the best training, you call Peter Rofé.”

— Nicole Poole,
Abrams Artists Agency

“ Incredibly, I got called in on my very first mailing to Cunningham, Escott, Dipene, one of the biggest voice-over firms in NYC. When I got there, the agents told me that the voice-over CD I sent them was one of the best-produced CDs they had ever heard.”

— Joe Mallon,
CED Talent Agency

“ I just booked and recorded three recurring roles for a new animated series on PBS called ‘Word Girl.’ The producer of the show took an interest in me after hearing my reel because not only did it show my range, but it showed that I had a dark sense of humor as well! All kudos to you, mighty reel master - you're the greatest!”

— Jen Cohn,
William Morris Agency

“ A couple months after finishing my demo with Peter, I booked my first animation job, the movie, POKEMON 2000. Within a year’s time, I became the voice of Betty Boop, then did two nationals for Burlington Coat Factory. I am now a signed client with Special Artists Agency in Los Angeles.”

— Michelle Goguen,
Special Artists Agency

"I just wanted to shoot you another THANK YOU for the fantastic work you and your staff did on creating my reels. I didn't feel that I really expressed how much I appreciate everything you have helped me accomplish in the past couple of months. It was your talent, guidance and committment to teaching that basically turned a merely possible life path for me into a real and
tangible opportunity."

—  Becky Balsley
Client

" Just as your work with my promo reel got me off to a great start and just as your PDR Demo got me in the door at Innovative, your workshop gave me an opportunity to shine in front of David - and I
followed up appropriately to close the deal. I'm very excited!"

— Kari Loya
Client

“ Peter has the natural instincts and industry knowledge to continue to be one of New York's finest voice-over coaches. I have already booked one of his students. I would recommend him to anyone who wants to enter this lucrative area or to others who need to brush up on their technique.”

— Michael Katz,
Personal Manager

“ Peter's coaching has helped me immeasurably. His wealth of knowledge alone is worthwhile, but his generous style of coaching, his meticulous attention to detail and his down-to-earth marketing advice has helped me jump-start my career. And to top it all off, I've gotten overwhelming response from agents and casting directors.”

— Maura Mahoney,
Freelance Voice-over Artist

“ I booked my first job right after finishing my reel. Luck and persistence helps get you in the door, Peter Rofe’s skills and products help make sure you stay in the room.”

— James Babbin,
Freelance Voice-over Artist.

“ The old adage 'Knowledge is power' has never taken on a more personal meaning for me since I started training with Peter Rofé. You leave each session with a renewed sense of purpose and the feeling that there is no 'luck' involved when attaining work in this highly competitive industry.”

— Brian Van Flandern,
Voice Over Actor

“ I went to my first voice over audition through [Agent] Eileen Haves at Acme [Talent Agency] last Friday. It was for some non-union spots for HBO Family and... I booked it! And it's all thanks to you. If I hadn't had your coaching on how to read scripts and what to do at auditions, I probably wouldn't have booked the gig. Thank you, Peter!”

— Michal the Girl
