My Voice Experience

My most recent experience was voicing and voice coaching another talent in a language learning project for RosettaStone, a well-known international language-learning website. The whole project took about 3 weeks in all for me, and the recording was done in Istanbul.

My other recent experience was for an aviation English language program project for Garuda which is Indonesia's national airline. I had two roles :

1. an air traffic control officer giving
landing directions to a pilot. I had to be
fully familiar with the aviation terminology
and phraseology required, for example,
remembering to say RUNWAY ZERO NINER instead
of RUNWAY ZERO NINE, saying the alphabets
using code rather than reading them as the
normal ABC alphabets.
A strong authoritative voice was required for
this.

2. the narrator reading the various reading
scripts which the trainee pilot must listen to
before he answers the test questions.
This type of reading requires clear diction
and accurate pronunciation.

My Training

I have been a choir conductor for at least 25 years, teaching and conducting the women's, youth's and children's choirs of my church, my workplace and my neighbourhood choir. As a choir conductor, I not only teach them the songs, but also how to pronounce the song lyrics clearly and correctly and with the appropriate expression.

My Studio Equipment

I have easy access to a professional studio which has done recordings for several local Indonesian musicians, and I am confident I will be able to provide the kind of sound clients require.

appropriate to local Indonesian culture, customs and
colloquialisms.
