My voiceover artist work covers many genres, and each has its own voice over style. Which one you need depends on the job and the client, but ultimately the listener. My versatile voice over skills and ability to understand a brief help make the magic happen. As...
January has come around again; it’s time for my annual Voiceover review of the year. Time to reflect on the past twelve months and make plans for the year to come.Well, what did we all make of 2022 then? I mean, if we don’t mention the war in Ukraine, economic crisis...
As a successful UK female storyteller, narrator and voiceover, I was recently asked to speak at my daughter’s school to launch their careers week. Now sure, I could have waffled on about how to be a narrator; the technical skills required to be a voiceover, what it...
