The short answer: We don't feel it's ethically right to put our name on something we didn't fully create. The longer answer: Everyone can write, but it takes industry experience to write a good demo that stands out to agents & clients, and that's what you're paying for with SG - our years of experience producing games, animation, & commercials, our time doing AAA sound design, and our years of daily full-time professional acting experience. For us, being a piece of a process or vision we didn't create makes it hard for there to be any cohesion in your demo, & you deserve better. We understand trying to save money on a pieced-together demo on a budget (we've done it before), but experience has taught us that piecing together a demo can be great for some, and not for others. Piecing demos can be more expensive, & risks leaving a lot lost in translation between a writer, director or engineer who all have different opinions about what makes a good demo - some of which will conflict. Your friend that is a "music producer" or "writes stories" is great for an indie or starter demo, but they have no idea what is expected of Voice Actors, do not understand the market, have no idea what agents and managers want, and have no idea what being a professional in that field is like. There's nothing wrong with making due with what you have, but we recommend adjusting your expectations for those kinds of demos. They might not get you signed by an agency, but they can pull down a good bit of work for you! Because of all this it's easy to make small mistakes that can make a big difference in how you appear to clients, agents, & more. And that's why we choose not to be part of that combo process, to avoid any harm or complication for the actors we know and respect.
