Online Casting Platform Bodalgo is unique in many ways. With a smaller roster of talent who are personally vetted, and a transparent platform that puts voice talent first, The Gurus just had to chat with the founder, Armin Hierstetter. It’s real talk with amazing industry folks. Would you expect anything less from the Voiceover Gurus?
A little about Armin Hierstetter:
Armin Hierstetter, born in 1970, is a German entrepreneur most well known as the founder of bodalgo, a multi-award-winning and leading online casting platform for voiceover talents. Since its launch in early 2008, bodalgo has become an integral part of the backbone of the voiceover industry. The website features more than 12,000 professionals from all over the world.
Before turning to the vo business, Armin worked in publishing for close to two decades, most notably as Deputy Editor of "PENTHOUSE" and highly successful teenage magazine "Sugar" as well as Publishing Director for "FHM". He also has a degree in "Media Marketing".
Armin lives with his wife and two daughters in Munich, Bavaria.
