My Voice Experience

Lee Tockar

Lee has performed the title roles in the animated series “Yam Roll” , ' 'Yakkity Yak' and lead rolls in the Gemini Award winning series “Dragon Booster” and such holiday classics as "Rudolph" and "Casper's Haunted Christmas", to name but a few.
Among the over one thousand animated episodes which are stamped with his wide range of characters, his most recent and noteworthy accomplishment is that of performing the lead role of "George" in "George of the Jungle". Lee was praised for his interpretation and performance of this landmark character by receiving the 2008 "Elan" (Electronic Animation) award for Male Voice Over Artist of the year. The award was presented by Seth MacFarlane of Family Guy fame.
He has also performed the beloved character of "Bibble" in the feature length Barbie “Fairytopia" and "Mermaidia" movies,

Lee is also a rising star in the artistic and literary circles of Vancouver, for, in addition to his formidable voice career, he is an outstanding and sought after painter, sings and plays several instruments and is a prolific writer of several genres. Lee has even written for many of the cartoons he has performed in.
He has won the BC Playwrite competition and has also written and performed award-winning plays in Vancouver’s own Fringe Festivals.
But that’s not all… Lee has recently finished writing three children’s literary masterpieces, “Billy Brainrain’s Night Time Alphabet", "Billy Brainrain & the Incredible Everywhere Rope" & "Billy Brainrain & the Government Cover Up Toy Closet", which he has read to hundreds of children in countless schools and public readings.
Not only did Lee write these brilliant stories but he crafted all the beautiful illustrations and voiced the audio CDs. Lee is now in the works of having these books published for everyone’s enjoyment. What's more, all three of these fantastical works have now been optioned for development.
