Voice Over Training FAQs

How do I attend a group class or a webinar using Zoom?

If you are not familiar with Zoom, here are links and detailed instructions for you.

Get ready for class:

  1. Watch this step by step guide to attending a Zoom class or webinar: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rzk4vdTIi0c
  2. Webcam – make sure that you have a functioning webcam. This will either be built in to existing your computer, or they can be separately purchased online or at an electronics store. You can also attend a Zoom class on your mobile phone or tablet.
  3. Headphones – Please wear a headset or headphones for class. This will help reduce background noise for the group, as well as feedback and echo effects.
  4. Internet Connection – please ensure that you have a reliable internet connection and are attending the class from a strong internet source. The GVAA is not responsible for any technical issues or spotty video due to poor internet connectivity.
  5. Not Sure on Start Time? Check Your Time Zone: If you’re in a different time zone than PST or EST, you can check your time zone for the appropriate class start time here: http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html
  6. Makes Notes During Class or Record Your Own Audio – the GVAA treats Zoom classes like live classes. They are not recorded with the exception of specific instances when an attendee must cancel class due to an emergency. We also will record a class for you if you can attend all class dates except one, and you still want to join the class. You may record your own audio from your computer during class time, so that you can hear your work back later. Please be aware that all classes are CONFIDENTIAL. Please respect your classmates along with GVAA intellectual property by not posting ANY MATERIAL FROM CLASS to the internet. The applies to sharing curriculum note with any other sources. Recordings are for personal use and study purposes only.
  7. Come Early! – Please be prompt for class and feel free to login early. The video hangout will be opened at least 5-10 minutes prior to class start time to allow everyone to trickle in.
