Mark Schafron

Voice Description

I'm a copywriter, voice-over artist, and voice producer with more than 20 years experience, especially in information technology, eLearning, industrial training, web sites, narration, commercials, telephony, and more. I'm noted for my ability to interpret difficult industrial scripts.

Besides helping you with your scripting chores or writing your project from scratch, I can voice it in my ProTools-equipped digital studio and provide just the right music and sound effects to make your project shine. I can deliver your project in WAV, MP3, AIFF or via high-speed e-mail, ftp, or on CD if you prefer. I'm easy to work with--no prima donnas here--and my rates are very competitive. I pride myself on working with the client until they are completely satisfied, all included in my price. Customer references are available upon request.

My original discipline was writing, so I'm available for writing-only projects as well.
