Gary Terzza

Voice Description

The voice of British network TV station Channel 4.
Conversational, user-friendy, believable, pacey and as enthusiastic as you want me to be.
My natural style is easy going and 'every-day' but I can add more gravitas or upbeat tones to suit your requirements. I thrive on bringing your text to life with a fresh, informal delivery.
You will also find my versatility ideal for e-learning projects, radio and TV ads, podcasts, documentaries, audio guides, on hold messages (IVR), corporate material and copy requiring authority.

I am a regular live announcer on digital channels E4 and More4

More recently Channel Five utilised my versatile vocal skills to narrate the documentary series Ultimate. In 2007 I also narrated the Channel 4 documentary Phil Spector's Demons.

I was the first announcer on music station VH1 in the United Kingdom and my years in local commercial radio have enabled me to develop skills in the broadcasting fields, and also in audio in production too. My informal manner works well for podcasts, business corporate reads and for any script that requires a natural easy sound delivered with sincerity.

When I am not recording I spend my time teaching others to do voice overs. I run a voice over master class in London, England and many of my students have now gone to successful voice over careers.
