Voice Description

New vocal techniques are always being discovered, but I specialize in offering a thoughtful and sympathetic tone to a script. I can hit lower tones quite well which helps resonate for serious pieces (or if you're going for the 'trailer voice' angle). I can play the funny guy (wackier / upbeat characters), the voice of reason & concern - there are infinite possibilities. What are you looking for?

Accents, Impersonations, Characters and Dialects

My skills are strongest for characters when it comes to vocal acting utilizing the back of the throat (think Jar Jar Binks, Gollum from Lord of the Rings). A deep, menacing growl can be added to switch the character from sad and anxious to overpowering. My British accent works best when taking a more Royal approach if you're looking to cast for a video game.

My Voice Experience

My voice career began sitting in my closet, surrounded by clothes, unplugging the refrigerator to reduce hum and translating script lit by flashlight into a passionate recording. Things have changed since then - I currently am under contract (non-exclusive) with the Knowledge Network in BC as one of their two promotional voices. We both provide branding to the Knowledge Network channel in promoting all of their upcoming programming.

I have a list of extensive clients from audiobooks (everything from instruction manuals to gay romance novels), voicemail directories, one-off production hits, short documentaries and video games.

My Training

I have very early training at Children's Television Studios in Toronto, Ontario (1980's). Extensive work at the school of Radio and Television Arts at Ryerson University - both on the production-side of projects, but on the acting side as well. I was usually the go-to guy when a voiceover was required for a variety of projects within the school. Ryerson was a four-year degree program and a highly valuable experience in my life.

My extensive production knowledge allows for you to utilize my services on a higher level - I can do post-audio work involving compression, effects, output tricks and methods to produce a better piece. And if you're looking for some minor foley, I have some experience in that realm, as well!

My Studio Equipment

-Voice-over studio built into my home (with soundproofing for better acoustics)
-pop filters & stands
-Rodes Mic & stands
-Sony Condenser mic for field recordings + HQ field recorder
-Mac Laptop (which remains outside of the VO studio itself)
-extensive software library for unlimited output & recording capabilities

Additional Skills

Despite my extensive experience, I still consider myself new to the industry and am open to new possibilities and ideas. I also understand that you're looking for the best recording possible and I do not gripe about callbacks or emails requesting minor or major fixes / changes to the read (or your script).

My minor in English from Ryerson will also help to add another layer of grammar & spelling checks to your project. More than once in the past (especially with audiobooks) I have found errors that would have affected the read and outcome of both the audio and printed versions of a book.
