Voice Over Body Shop -- VOBS -- is super proud to have as our guest the one, the only, Melissa Moats!

If there’s one thing that “The Guys” at Voice Over Body Shop have shown over the more than 7 years of producing their show, it's that building a career for a voice actor takes persistence, patience, and passion. That is what this week's VOBS guest, Las Vegas based voice talent Melissa Moats, is all about. She loves her work, and gets lost in it every day. Melissa voices for television promos, documentaries, phone systems, video games, corporate training video... the whole gamut. That includes promos for The Ellen Show, doing national TV commercials for Best Western Hotels, being the North American guide voice on the video game Wii Yoga, and narrating documentaries for super stars Justin Timberlake and Drake! She’s also heard heard regularly on Pandora Internet Radio.

Melissa really enjoys mentoring others who share the same dream of voice acting. Her and her husband, Troy, founded The Voice Actors Studio in Las Vegas in 2015 to train the next generation of hopeful voice talent. She’s also now the voice over instructor for UNLV! She believes in paying it forward and sharing everything that has served her well over the years.
