My voice my talent I was introduced to the world of voice over at Dorling Kindersley(where I worked as an editor) when they chose me of all the hundreds of employees to lend my voice to their IVR. I always knew I had a good voice. I had been singing all my life. But I never knew my voice could be used for more than just singing. Recently I attended a voice-over workshop to learn the fine nuances and technicalities of voice-over. One must be thorough. I have just finished my first project. An e-learning project for children in the UK. The learning was about computers. I lent my voice to this project in British accent. I am very keen to add narratives, commercials/promos, IVRs, stories, corporate presentations to my repertoire of projects. I know my voice is unique and my impeccable diction and fluency in both English and Hindi will be an asset for any brand. Attended a workshop by voiceartistes.com Sang in the school choir Performed at many amateur jamming sessions. Was the president of the Western Music Society in college. Participated in many poem recitations and debates at school. Am training in Indian classical vocals. Can play a little guitar. My experience as a copywriter (Ogilvy) and an editor (Dorling Kindersley and The Economist) may prove useful as I can quickly scan any script for language mistakes (grammar, spellings, flow, construction). My impeccable diction and fluency in both Hindi and English due to my association with the language world is very useful. My constant training in singing has given me a good understanding of and control over my voice. My role as a mother makes me a natural story teller. I can emote well as I often participated in recitations.
