They say the proof is in the pudding. Here are a few comments from some of my happy clients.

"I just wanted to drop a note to say “thanks” for the excellent work you provided for my recent project.

Out of the dozens of voice professionals I auditioned for the project- you were the only one who perfectly captured the tone and “read” of the script. It was conversational and warm, yet authoritative. Perfect!

You were a real pro to work with an extremely fast turn-around time, and completely accommodating for my changes and sudden copy discoveries.

I will definitely be utilizing your services in the future!

Thanks again,

We were seeking a talent that could produce voice over for promotional and informational video clips for our company web site. We needed the work done quickly with all post production completed. Our requirement was that the talent speaks very clearly with a friendly believable tone while having the ability to communicate technical information with the inflection and tempo necessary to maintain the interest of the listener.

After exhaustive screening it was clear that Steve Webb exceeded our initial requirements. He has completed a number of projects for us and never failed to produce high quality audio that puts the cutting edge of professionalism on our video clips. We are proud to have his versatile voice of professionalism be the spokesperson for our business.

Additional Skills

Experience

Steve Webb got his start in broadcasting in the 70s, writing, producing and voicing radio commercials in southern California, where he was later hired as talent for television commercials.

In 2004, Steve began the award winning Lifespring! podcast, the world’s first Christian podcast not based on repurposed church sermons. As a pioneering podcaster, Steve was quoted in the book Tricks of the Podcasting Masters and the New York Times, co-authored a series of articles on podcasting and participated in a round table discussion on podcasting for Technologies For Worship Magazine, and appeared on the front page of Riverside, California’s newspaper, The Press Enterprise. Since that time, over 1,500 episodes have been produced, and several different programs have been created, spawning Lifespring Media, Inc., a California 501 (c)(3) non profit religious corporation.

Proven

One of the most popular shows in the Lifespring Media family is the Lifespring Family Bible, in which Steve reads the entire Bible in one year. The Bible truly is the ultimate audio book! This show continues to experience hundreds of thousands of downloads each year.

In Demand

The idea of becoming a full time voice over artist bounced around in Steve’s mind for some time as his love for creating audio content grew and his vocal style matured. Then he began to receive inquiries from listeners to his various podcasts, asking him to record commercials for their businesses. It was then that he began to seriously consider voice over as the next chapter in his professional life.

Committed To Excellence

Steve began to seek out some of the best coaches in the field…proven, working voice over artists and casting directors who have a gift for teaching the craft. He found Pat Fraley, and then MJ Lallo to work with first. (For more about these inspiring sessions, click here.) Of course, this is an ongoing effort, because one can always learn new skills and polish those already present. During these first two training periods, Steve learned that his voice is well suited for not only podcasts and commercials, but for video game and corporate video narrations, audio books, movie trailers, promos, radio ID’s, and pretty much any type of project that calls for a warm, friendly, mature, believable, conversational type of delivery.
