Norm Gilbert

Voice Description

I am a versatile, experienced performer. I started my career in radio, then transistioned to television. I have written, produced, directed, or production managed hundreds of television commercials in my career.

I have now "semi-retired" to live in Barcelona, Spain where I continue my career by doing voice over work from my home studio.

I have a mature, warm, friendly voice that "sells". I can do narration, training, or commercial work.

I can also do a harder sell, or a fun, relaxed read.

Raise the register a bit and I can do a younger read.

I invite you to check out my demo here on the site.
