Voice Description

Mid to deep range voice, sincere, engaging and sophisticated, tone. Excellent for medical or other narrations where a very distinct tone and clarity are vital. Excellent sight reader, can handle complicated narratives with ease.

As former journalist and anchorman can sound very "newsy" and carry authority in my delivery.

Fast, professional and easy to work with. Enjoy the process of interacting with a voice director.

My basic fee includes a 30 minute script consultancy/editing service. Happy to take on basic script editing services if your script needs adapting into an effective "Talking audio script"

"Alan is not just a VO. He's the actual final touch to most of our productions. Productions for clients who rank as the worlds leading bio pharmaceutical companies with extremely high demands.
Alan's professional approach, fearless input and subtle sense of nuances makes him a natural partner whether it comes to narrating a complex corporate presentation, or give an emotionally demanding documentary a voice.
Don't even consider using anyone else."
David Stavenow, Creative Director, Animech
