About Hugh

“My goal for every student is to not need me anymore. I love working with you, but you’ve got to be able to do this on your own”.

I’ve said a lot about voiceover, in the booth, in the classroom, in private lessons, and online.  And people have found my thoughts on the subject to be valuable. How do I know? When voice talent took my direction or otherwise applied what I wrote or taught, they made money. Not all of the time, but enough of the time. And sometimes quite a lot of it, too. You can’t work at an agency for as long as I did without making money for both your clients and your employer. I loved every day I was at Buchwald. I spent almost 15 years, 8 hours a day, 5 days a week, directing about 125,000 voiceover auditions. And that number is probably a little low. But something happens when you do the same job for a long time.  You start to hear a little voice in the back of your head asking if there is anything else for you out there.  I’ve read that many people who changed their career paths felt a similar thing. And there was what my Dad said:  “You might get a different kind of satisfaction from working closely with a talent for an intense, longer period of time rather than so many people, so quickly every day”. Dad was right.

Get real world one-on-one direction on your reads with Hugh P. Klitzke! We'll meet via Zoom on Wednesday, June 26th from 5pm - 7:00 pm PT!! Reserve your seat today!
