Mike Jablon

Voice Description

HAVE YOU HEARD?

"Mike Jablon is a corporate narrator who helps large and small businesses sound more professional by enhancing their voicemail, training video soundtracks, and commercials with high-quality narration."

A warm, natural voice with "Real Guy" quality that can give credibility and authority to Commercial, Narration and Technical reads.

Adjustable for sincere, trusting tones required for sensitive P.S.A. copy.

Or, a colloquial dialect for that "Next Door Neighbor" voice you need.

And finally, a deep booming voice with high energy and versatility for Hard Sell, Cartoon/Animated Characters, and Promos.
