Voice Description
As English as a nice cup of tea. A warm and welcoming voice that can be as rich as a strong Darjeeling brew or as light, subtle and sophisticated as Earl Grey. Educated and erudite, this is the chap you would want to guide you around a new city, introduce you to a new subject, or read you a book at bedtime. Knowledgeable, but not overbearing; fun but not frivolous; a voice that is at home in the town or the country, at work or at play. A voice you can trust.

My Voice Experience
A love of the English language led me into journalism and a subsequent career as a professional writer. I have published books (a couple), written scripts (for business and educational videos and DVDs), lectured (amusingly, I hope), and produced scores of brochures and advertisements as well as videos. When budgets have been tight, I have done my own voice overs. For fun I commentate at Horse Shows (very often in the freezing cold; a thoroughly British way to spend a weekend).
My Training
Both gamekeeper and poacher, my abilities as a voice over artist have been learned from the client side: writing scripts and directing videos. Following a career in journalism, where I specialised in rock music, I went into advertising where I specialise in promoting whatever (ethical) comes my way. I enjoy being in the business of communicating. More than enjoy ... I love it. I speak as I write: with enthusiasm, flair and creativity.

Additional Skills
My background in advertising and as a writer has brought me into contact with many industries: rock music, computers and technology; education; medical; financial; leisure and travel; wine and spirits. As a result I am quickly able to assimilate information and communicate it. I have an instinctive understanding of what message a script is trying to convey - and how to make words work.
