Voice Description

Roald Woods is arguably, the foremost voice actor in South Africa today. His resonant tones can be heard across all radio and television stations nationwide on an impressive array of commercials and programming as well as dozens of corporate projects and audio visual presentations. His experience spans nearly twenty years and covers several industries and three countries. A natural schizophrenic , Roald is able to perform a variety of impersonations and accents with unnerving accuracy although his bread and butter comes from his neutral, rich baritone tonsils.

My Voice Experience

There's twenty years of fun and shouting which need to be detailed and I will. Soon.

My Training

I spent more than 15 years in radio, studied acting at school and took part in many productions on an amateur level before entering broadcasting. I've received hours of therapy, dived in oceans, fought in a war and been promoted to the highest level of my incompetence. I have a college degree in economics and IT. My training also covers a good wedge of life and I consider myself to be a perpetual student.

Access to just about any kind of equipment required including a Source Connect enabled suite with full production capability.

Additional Skills
