An actor & comic by trade and a “human puppy” by disposition, Ian not only delivers the versatility, precision & ease you need to get your voice over right the first time… but the good-natured, natural cheerfulness that ensures hiring him always means a good time, on a job well done. In short, he’s a good boy.
A decades-long improviser and comic character actor, Ian really shines with in-the-moment direction, listening intently to fine-tune what you’d really like — no matter how on-the-nose or abstract — to get you the sound & delivery you need to elevate your message as far as you want it to go. But, hey: want to “set it and forget it?” Even better. You can send Ian a script with however much or little direction you want, and you’ll get 3 options back that will all match the “voice” of your project in tone, delivery, tempo, and feeling.
