Winfred Henson

Voice Description

Deep and authoritative and tone appropriate for narrations or documentaries, warm and friendly for public service announcements or training videos. Powerful and exciting for promotions or whatever your need might be. Mine is a very distinctive, mellow voice which can bring to mind James Earl Jones, Dennis Haysbert or Barry White. I'm an excellent storyteller and can assume the appropriate inflections to raise and maintain interest in audiobooks or training videos. I can also assume the voice of a real person and sound like the likable guy next door.

My Voice Experience

Since 1997 I've been doing voice work for the likes of Comcast, Promise Keepers, New Orleans, an countless other clients. Municipalities typically go for the PSAs. Stop Smoking campaigns, safety routes against disasters, and health matters are a few of the types of PSAs done for cities and municipalities during my time in this field. A book promotion for Pirates of the Carribean was finished just last week for children between 10 and 12 years. This was both promotion and voice character assumption at once.

Recently I've been involved in political promotions with robo calls and regional broadcast commercials. I do great political reads of all types.

Medical and financial are my background skills so terms in these professions are especially easy for me. Consider me for your next project and see for yourself what I'm capable of.

My Training

I took acting at UALR in Little Rock. I've taken online voice training courses with The Great Voice Company.
I'm presently writing a book on asthma for the layperson. This book will be easily readable and not laced with complicated or esoteric words but will focus on simplicity and the practical aspects of that medical condition.
This communication mode meshes well with my voice-over career.
I interact closely with parents and children during teaching for asthma. I've gained a great deal of communication experience through that and the studies taken at college.

Additional Skills

I've been a respiratory therapist for 20 years and have become familiar with and comfortable with medical terminology. My medical background will make me the ideal candidate for medical scripts which use esoteric and difficult to pronounce terminology.
I also have an accounting degree, financial planners certificate and I'm a certified public accountant. Financial scripts would also be easy for me as I'm familiar with financial terminology also.
I've recently added an accent to my repertoire. I can speak like a Jamaican.
I also write scripts and will be happy to write some for you.
