Voice Description

My vocal range tends to be higher than most, so if you need a high-pitched vice, that's no problem at all. Likewise, if you need a gruffer tone, something a little harsh and dark, I can cater to that as well.

I can speak in a variety of accents, ranging through:

Posh British
Common British
Australian
American (Stoner, Preppy, or just your average Joe)
Indian
French

I also specialise in an American game-show host voice, which also doubles up as an announcer-esque voice if need be.

My Voice Experience

Currently I'm signed up for a Sonic the Hedgehog fan-game as the voices of Tails and Black Doom, but I'm not looking for voice-over work, I do a lot of vocal roleplay with friends over Skype. It's all constantly ad-libbed, so it helps build up a bond with each of the characters I play. These usually last for anything up to three or four hours at a time, and having to switch voices and accents constantly keeps me on my toes!

There's characters like:

Adam - Bat, whiny, annoying, and generally a pest.
Jesse - Stoner echidna, sits around and plays video games all day.
Matthew - Elegant English serval, refined and quiet.
Trent - A psychotic little panther.
Andy - High-rise classy lounge singer.
James - A lynx hailing from Birmingham. Cocky, but lovable.

These are just a few of the characters who I bring to life through my voice. Bringing each of these characters to life is a rewarding experience, and also helps to create new voices for use in the future. Sometimes characters are introduced without warning, so I sometimes have to come up with a voice for them on the fly, which is more fun than you'd expect!

A lot of my friends ask me to record various celebrity voicemail answer machines for their cellphones, so I'm generally called upon once in a while to make something that'll scare or shock whoever calls them!

My Training

100% self-taught, I learned from listening to movie trailers, watching various cartoons and imitating their voices. Playing video games with my younger cousin and listening to the various characters calling out, then mimicing them. I also studied some of my idols, Robin Williams and Cam Clarke, and how their voices reflected the characters they were playing.

As of writing, I've been doing general voice work now for around 7 years. I originally wanted to be a singer, but found that it was a lot easier and much more enjoyable to create new voices than new songs.
