Hello!

I want to be the most brand friendly "ginger" the world has ever known. I'm earning my soul!

What I present in my auditions is my own strongest choice, but what YOU want is the strongest choice, please do not hesitate to ask me to go there. Specificity is the spice of awesomeness.

I'm the voice of many including Poochi in Cartoon Network's Powerpuff Girls Z and the fearless young hero Kira Yamato in Gundam Dynasty Warriors 2 for the Playstation 3.

I've been acting for over 12 years and have been a voice over pro for 7 of them. I have credits on all forms of media including Film/TV, Radio, Video Game, Motion Capture, Commercials, Audiobooks & many more.

My voice is described as young, fun, hip, cool, energetic, upbeat, natural, clear, surfer, laid back, real, professional, canadian, american, announcer, non-announcer, animated, smart, nerdy, funny, tough, gentle, cartoonish, cartoony, straight, warm, cold, aloof, teen, young adult, character, kid. Actually... It can be described as really anything! It's THAT versatile. Tell me exactly what you want. Multiple characters are no problem.

I am also a Film/TV actor. My work was featured at Cannes last year in the short film 'Like Smoke'. I've also had a recent booking on the FOX series 'Fringe'. And I've worked alongside succesful actors such as Robert Redford, Shia Labeouf and Daniel Radcliffe.

I'm part of a network of voice over professionals in the Vancouver, Canada area. If you are looking for an ensemble cast, please do not hesitate to ask me for recommendations on other talent. They will all be able to come record in the same studio and keep a level of professional consistency that is difficult to find with online casting.

I'm also an instructor of kids/teens at Vancouver Acting School - If you're looking for a "real" kid sound. Do not hesiate to ask me for a recommendation.

Personal studio equipped.

Testimonials:

Bubble Gum Interactive
Top qualities: Personable, On Time, Creative
“Simon was a god send at a point in time when our project (an animation series) was desperately in need of quality, original and creative male voices. As a Director, you get a lot of actors who claim to walk the walk but just don't have it when it comes down to the wire- but I can assure you Simon is NOT one of those actors. He was professional, dedicated, low on the ego and high on the output and I have no hesitation in hiring or suggesting him for work in future. Good luck Simon- you deserve it!” - Rebekah Lambert

Mind Over Eye
Top qualities: On Time, High Integrity, Creative
“It was because of Simon's talent, passion and positive attitude that I have hired him more than once. His professionalism is outstanding and his talent is refreshing to me as a Producer. I know I can call on Simon at any time and he will go out of his way to get me what I need. I 100% recommend Simon Hill.” - Gail Paget-Wilkes

"Simon, thanks to your audio work being so good, I'm now stuck with the dilemma of trying to have other talent match your level of quality. Thanks alot :)"

Additional Skills

I'm incredibly passionate about cartoons. At a young age I would commandeer the family TV every Saturday morning to catch my favorite shows. I would fight tooth and nail if anyone tried to disrupt my special time of the week!

My favorite cartoons of all time are Goof Troop, Tiny Toon Adventures, Bump in the Night, Tom and Jerry, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Bobby's World and Spliced.

Fan of music, video games, radio, skateboarding, snowboarding, weight lifting, improvisation, comedy, anything to do with Saturday Night Live, Bill Hader or Andy Samberg and anything voice over industry related.
